Chromosome fusion polymorphisms in the grasshopper, Dichroplus fuscus (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Melanoplinae): Insights on meiotic effects

European Journal of Entomology, 2015
Robertsonian fusions account for many of the changes in the evolution of the orthopteran karyotype; in their origin, a centric fusion is involved between two acro-telocentric chromosomes, forming a single bi-armed chromosome.

The occurrence in the migratory locust, Locusta migratoria (Orthoptera: Acrididae), of a short-winged morph with no obvious fitness advantages over the long-winged morph

European Journal of Entomology, 2013
A short-winged morph, whose occurrence is controlled by a simple recessive Mendelian unit, was recently discovered in Locusta migratoria. The existence of trade-offs between flight capability associated with wing length and other fitness-related traits ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Sinopodisma hengshanica (Orthoptera: Acrididae) and its phylogenetic implication

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Sinopodisma hengshanica (Orthoptera: Acrididae) was firstly determined and analyzed in the present study. Assembled mitogenome sequence of S. hengshanica is 15,623 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding

Effects of the juvenile hormone mimic NC-184 on the development of the reproductive organs and mating behaviour of nymphs of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Orthoptera: Acrididae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2019
The insect growth regulator NC-184, a juvenile hormone mimic, prevents moulting to the adult stage in the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål) (Orthoptera: Acrididae).

DNA barcoding of selected short-horned grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae) from Indian Himalayan region

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In the context of Indian zoogeography, the DNA barcode data of short-horned grasshoppers (family Acrididae) are limited in global databases. Hence, the present study was aimed to collect selected Acridid species from the Indian Himalayan regions and ...

Cytogeography of three parallel Robertsonian polymorphisms in the water-hyacinth grasshopper, Cornops aquaticum (Orthoptera: Acrididae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2008
C. aquaticum (Acrididae: Leptysminae) inhabits water-hyacinths in the Neotropical region. The blue-flowered water-hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes, has been introduced elsewhere without its natural enemies and has become a weed; recently C.
