Abstract: 
Host-shift induced stress in phytophagous insects could have effect on developmental destabilization. Indicator of developmental instability is fluctuating asymmetry (FA)- small random deviations between right and left side of bilateral symmetrical traits. In theory, symmetry is subject to sexual selection in insects, since FA is considered as an indicator of male quality. Response to environmenta...
