Integrative developmental ecology: a review of density-dependent effects on life-history traits and host-microbe interactions in non-social holometabolous insects
Population density modulates a wide range of eco-evolutionary processes including inter-
and intra-specific competition, fitness and population dynamics. In holometabolous insects …
