Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Microvesicles are key players in cellular communication. As glandular secretions present a rich source of active exosomes, we hypothesized that exosome-like vesicles are present in Apis mellifera hypopharyngeal gland secretomal products (honey, royal ...

Thermal learning in the honeybee,Apis mellifera [PDF]
SUMMARYHoneybee foragers are exposed to thermal stimuli when collecting food outside and receiving food rewards inside the nest. In both contexts, there is an opportunity for foragers to associate warmth with food rewards. However, honeybee thermal learning is poorly understood.

ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Contribution of pollinators to delivering fruit quality in commercial sweet cherry orchards
Abstract Background Pollinators provide an essential ecosystem service to many crops, including sweet cherry (Prunus avium), which can be quantified in terms of fruit number and/or quality. Most studies in sweet cherry have explored the extent to which fruit set relies on pollinators but have neglected pollinators' contribution to fruit quality.

A high‐throughput and sensitive method for food preference assays in the argentine ant
A high‐throughput and sensitive method for food preference assays in the Argentine ant. The dual feeder detects dispreference for food with low levels of an aversive compound (quinine) and preference for foods with higher levels of phagostimulants (sucrose).

Does the waggle dance help honey bees to forage at greater distances than expected for their body size? [PDF]
A honey bee colony has been likened to an oil company. Some members of the company or colony prospect for valuable liquid resources. When these are discovered other group members can be recruited to exploit the resource. The recruitment of nestmates to a
