Persistence of a sugar-rejecting cockroach genotype under various dietary regimes
Scientific Reports, 7(1).
Contributors: n, A. Wada-Katsumata n , C. Schal n & J. Silverman n
MeSH headings : Animals; Blattellidae / drug effects; Blattellidae / genetics; Blattellidae / growth & development; Blattellidae / metabolism; Diet; Feeding Behavior; Female; Fructose / chemistry; Genetic Fitness; Genotype; Glucose / chemistry; Insecticides / chemistry; Male; Sexual Behavior, Animal / drug effects; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology; Sugars / chemistry
TL;DR:
Experimental evidence is shown that within heterogeneous populations, WT German cockroaches will over time prevail in abundance over GA individuals, even when glucose is not a dietary component.

Effects of foraging distance on macronutrient balancing and performance in the German cockroach Blattella germanica
The Journal of Experimental Biology, 220(2), 304–311.
author keywords: Carbohydrate; Foraging effort; Juvenile development; Nutrient regulation; Protein; Sexual maturation
MeSH headings : Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Blattellidae / growth & development; Blattellidae / physiology; Energy Metabolism; Feeding Behavior; Female; Lipid Metabolism; Male; Nymph / growth & development; Nymph / physiology; Oocytes / growth & development; Sexual Maturation
TL;DR:
A positive effect of foraging distance on fitness-related parameters at two life stages is shown, in both cases involving increased consumption of specific nutrients corresponding to requirements at the respective life stage.

Insecticide resistance and nutrition interactively shape life-history parameters in German cockroaches
Scientific Reports, 6(1).
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / drug effects; Animals; Blattellidae / physiology; Drug Resistance / drug effects; Insecticides / toxicity; Oxazines / toxicity
TL;DR:
This study exemplifies how poor nutritional condition can aggravate the life-history costs of resistance and elevate the detrimental effects of insecticide exposure, demonstrating how environmental conditions and resistance may interactively impact individual fitness and insecticide efficacy.

Adaptive contraction of diet breadth affects sexual maturation and specific nutrient consumption in an extreme generalist omnivore
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 28(4), 906–916.
author keywords: adaptation; deterrence; fructose; geometric framework; glucose aversion; life history evolution; nutritional ecology; oocyte development; protein; toxin
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / physiology; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Body Weight; Cockroaches / physiology; Feeding Behavior / physiology; Female; Fructose / pharmacology; Glucose / pharmacology; Oocytes / drug effects; Oocytes / physiology; Sexual Maturation
TL;DR:
This study illustrates how an evolutionary change in the chemosensory system may affect the evolution of other traits that govern animal life histories through endocrine adjustments which reduce requirements for energetic fuels.
