Genetic Structure of Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) Populations in Mills
Environmental Entomology, 41(1), 188–199.
author keywords: Tribolium castaneum; genetic structure; F-ST; genetic fingerprinting; bottleneck
MeSH headings : Animal Migration; Animals; Flour; Genetic Variation; Insect Control / methods; Oryza; Polymerase Chain Reaction; Population Dynamics; Puerto Rico; Tribolium / genetics; Triticum; United States
TL;DR:
Evidence is provided that populations of T. castaneum collected from mills show spatial genetic structure, but the poor ability to assign individuals to source populations and lack of isolation by distance suggest greater levels of gene flow than predicted originally.

Effect of Light Intensity on Brassica rapa Chemistry and Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) Life History Traits.
Journal of Entomological Science, 47(4), 327–349.
TL;DR:
Growingpac choi in the greenhouse under different light intensities is unlikely to affect diamondback moths through changes in pac choi chemistry unless decreased male body weight confers a fitness cost, however, plant-mediated effects associated with changes in light intensity on P. xylostella survival should be evaluated.

A Small Number of Genes Underlie Male Pigmentation Traits in Lake Malawi Cichlid Fishes
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, 318(3), 199–208.
MeSH headings : Animals; Cichlids / genetics; Male; Pigmentation / genetics
TL;DR:
This work quantified the number of pigment cells on the body and fins of two species of the genus Metriaclima and their hybrids and used the Castle-Wright equation to estimate that differences in individual pigmentation traits between these species are controlled by one to four genes each.
