The Relationship Between Morphological Symmetry and Immune Response in Wild-Caught Adult Bush-Crickets

Despite interest in the relationship between fluctuating asymmetry (FA), immune response and ecological factors in insects, little data are available from wild populations. In this study we measured FA and immune response in 370 wild-caught male bush-crickets, Metrioptera roeseli, from 20 experiment...
