Knowledge graph centered on quantitative genetic evolutionary model (Pieridae) with 41 nodes and 162 connections. Top connected: Ligusticum porteri, Lepidoptera, climate change, elevational gradients, phenotypic plasticity.
Description
Transplant butterflies between high and low elevation sites to quantify differences in flight initiation timing and thermal sensitivity across elevation gradients using caged trials.
Typical Equipment
- SeeVue window screen
- bridal veil
- wooden tent staples
- cylindrical cages
Output Measurements
- flight initiation time
- proportion initiating flight
- body temperature at flight
