No detectable effect of urbanization on genetic drift or gene flow in specialist herbivorous insects of milkweed.
Urbanization is hypothesized to isolate populations and restrict dispersal, leading to reduced genetic diversity and increased genetic differentiation. We tested this hypothesis in specialist herbivorous insects of milkweed, positing that higher dispersal ability would mitigate the negative effects...
