The Journal of Experimental Biology, 220(2), 304–311.

By: A. Ko n, K. Jensen n, C. Schal n & J. Silverman n

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. (via Semantic Scholar)

2016 journal article

Insecticide resistance and nutrition interactively shape life-history parameters in German cockroaches

Scientific Reports, 6(1).

By: K. Jensen n, A. Ko n, C. Schal n & J. Silverman n

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.
