Accelerated evolution of mitochondrial but not nuclear genomes of Hymenoptera: new evidence from crabronid wasps. [PDF]
Mitochondrial genes in animals are especially useful as molecular markers for the reconstruction of phylogenies among closely related taxa, due to the generally high substitution rates.

Mitigating light pollution impacts on arthropods based on light‐emitting diode properties
Abstract Light pollution from artificial light at night (ALAN) is a significant environmental problem with far‐reaching consequences for ecological systems. Recent innovations in light‐emitting diode (LED) technology may offer sustainable outdoor lighting solutions, but scientific evidence is lacking. We investigated the effects of various LED lighting

Hemoglobins are mainly functional in the transport and storage of O2, and are present in aerobic, lung respiratory metazoans. Based on recent studies, it has been determined that globin-like proteins are also found in invertebrate groups which have tracheal respiratory systems.

Pre‐Diagnostic Features of Multiple Sclerosis in a Diverse UK Cohort: A Nested Case–Control Study
ABSTRACT Background Many patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) experience nonspecific symptoms prior to diagnosis. This period—the 'MS prodrome'—has been described in socio‐economically homogeneous cohorts to date. It remains unclear to what extent events prior to an MS diagnosis differ according to social determinants of health. Methods We conducted a

Season‐Net: A Deep Learning Framework for Bias Correction of Seasonal Forecasting Models
Abstract Seasonal climate forecasts play a crucial role in decision‐making across sectors like agriculture, energy, and disaster management. However, these forecasts often exhibit spatially structured biases that undermine their reliability, but this structure also enables more effective bias correction, particularly improving performance in predicting

Genetic Diversity and Phylogenetic Relationship among Three Apocrita Species (Hymenoptera) From Qena Governorate, Egypt Based On RAPD Markers [PDF]
The genomic DNA of three Apocrita species (Hymenoptera) namely, Vespa orientalis [Vespoidea; Vespidae], Xylocopa aestuans [Apoidea; Apidae] and Apis mellifera [Apoidea; Apidae] has been subjected to RAPD-PCR analysis with 10 deca-oligonucleotides [A-01 ...

ABSTRACT Wasps, members of over 90 hymenopteran families, exhibit diverse behaviours, including pollination, predation and parasitism. While wasps are known pollinators in specialised systems, such as the intricate mutualism of fig trees and the deceptive pollination of certain orchids, they have historically been considered ineffective pollinators ...

Chromosomal instability and genomic alterations in cholangiocarcinoma from Northeastern Thailand
Abstract Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a lethal cancer of the bile duct and is a major health concern in several parts of the world, including northeastern Thailand, where CCA incidence is the highest due to the endemic liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini.
