New preprint (part of @RaoMedha_ PhD work) showing how mismatch between generation length in fly population maintenance and pop dynamics experiments can greatly affect the estimation of demographic parameters and pop stability.

New reprint out from our lab. Medha Rao et al show that some of the harmful effects of adult crowding in fruitflies are ameliorated or even reversed in a body-size-dependent manner.

@RaoMedha_ et al show that the biomass of flies per unit food surface area (effective adult density), rather than the traditionally used overall density of number of flies per unit volume of space, that better predicts the intensity of adult crowding
