Intraspecies differences are greater than interspecies ones. The 7-instar groups expend relatively more energy on maintenance while 6-instar ones expend more on growth and reproduction. That indicates different life strategies in the two groups. The intrapopulation diversity improves plasticity of the species.}, title={Cost of maintenance and production in flour beetles Tribolium castaneum Hbst. and T. confusum Duval - intrapopulation diversity}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/86874/PDF/WA058_89642_P2840-T44_Eko-Pol-A-Nr-1-2.pdf}, volume={44}, number={1-2}, journal={Ekologia Polska}, publisher={Oficyna Wydawnicza Instytutu Ekologii PAN}, keywords={Tribolium, metabolism, production efficiency, life-strategy, intrapopulation diversity}, }
