The Spring 2025 Biology Seminar Series continues with a talk from Dr. Jacobus (Jaap) De Roode, "Migration, microbes and medication in the monarch butterfly."
Location:
BioScience 113
Event Date: Feb. 11, 2025
Monarch butterflies are well-known for their spectacular migration from North America to Mexico, and for their reliance on milkweeds as their larval host plants. I will present on our research to show how parasitism affects monarch migration, and how monarchs may use medicinal milkweeds to fight their infections.
