New sanitation techniques for controlling tephritid fruit flies (Diptera: tephritidae) in Hawaii
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2005 New approaches to sanitation in a cropping system susceptible to tephritid fruit flies (Diptera tephritidae) in Hawaii have been investigated. Six trials were conducted in tent-like structures to demonstrate that melon fly larvae (Bacrocera cucurbitae ...

MARK4 enhances stress granule formation under oxidative stress and increases tau accumulation
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.MARK4 (red dots) localizes to stress granules (orange dots) and promotes their formation under oxidative stress by modulating TIA1 (blue dots). MARK4 and TIA1 synergistically increase tau (purple) accumulation, and the reduction of the TIA1 ortholog suppresses neurodegeneration in a fly model.

Mean temperature determines whether winter variability accelerates or buffers energy loss
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Winter survival in dormant animals depends on conserving finite energy reserves, yet winter temperatures fluctuate around shifting means. In ectotherms, metabolic rate increases exponentially with temperature, so thermal variability is expected to accelerate energy loss,
