Differences in Attack Avoidance and Mating Success between Strains Artificially Selected for Dispersal Distance in Tribolium castaneum.

Individuals of both dispersal and non-dispersal types (disperser and non-disperser) are found COCONUT OIL ORG VIR in a population, suggesting that each type has both costs and benefits for fitness.However, few studies have examined the trade-off between the costs and benefits for the types.Here, we artificially selected for walking distance, i.e.,
