An experimental evolution study confirms that discontinuous gas exchange does not contribute to body water conservation in locusts

The adaptive nature of discontinuous gas exchange (DGE) in insects is contentious. The classic ‘hygric hypothesis’, which posits that DGE serves to reduce respiratory water loss (RWL), is still the best supported. We thus focused on the hygric hypothesis in this first-ever experimental evolution stu...
