1996 journal article

The genetic basis of differences in growth and behavior of specialist and generalist herbivore species: Selection on hybrids of Heliothis virescens and Heliothis subflexa (Lepidoptera)

Evolution, 50(2), 831.

By: A. Sheck n & F. Gould  n

TL;DR: The generalist, HV, did not have a single set of loci that governed feeding on soybean, cotton and tobacco and it is likely that some of the loci governing performance and preference for soybean also contributed to performance and preferences for cotton and that the soybean loci examined did not interact negatively to lower performance and prefers Physalis, the specialist's host.

1995 journal article

GENETIC-ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENCES IN OVIPOSITION PREFERENCES OF HELIOTHIS-VIRESCENS AND HELIOTHIS-SUBFLEXA (LEPIDOPTERA, NOCTUIDAE)

ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY, 24(2), 341–347.

By: A. Sheck n & F. Gould  n

author keywords: HELIOTHIS; OVIPOSITION; HYBRIDS
TL;DR: The hybrid, despite a major genetic reorganization relative to the parents, did not behave in an unpredictable way and was able to quantify niche breadth and rank host preferences. (via Semantic Scholar)

1993 journal article

THE GENETIC-BASIS OF HOST-RANGE IN HELIOTHIS-VIRESCENS - LARVAL SURVIVAL AND GROWTH

ENTOMOLOGIA EXPERIMENTALIS ET APPLICATA, 69(2), 157–172.

By: A. Sheck n & F. Gould  n

author keywords: HELIOTHIS-SUBFLEXA; GENERALIST; SPECIALIST; GENETICS; HYBRIDS; DOMINANCE
TL;DR: Larval feeding was assayed in a generalist caterpillar, a specialist caterpillar and their F1 hybrids and a backcross with H.v.s to gain a preliminary understanding of the genetic basis of host use in H.s. (via Semantic Scholar)
