Nice one Paul.
Any idea how the information/instinct entered the genome and/or how the behaviour arose?
A perfect example of new behaviours being introduced to a population is the apple maggot fly. (actually this in my mind is a perfect candidate to exemplify evolution).
I'm kinda busy atm but if you want I can post papers regarding apple maggot fly evolution when later on.
