Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 231-240, April 2020., 2020 We have identified a Masculinizer homologue (PxyMasc) in the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. As in Bombyx mori, this gene controls doublesex splicing and male viability suggesting deep conservation of this sex‐determination mechanism. PxyMasc functions early (3–6 h) in embryonic development to initiate male‐form doublesex splicing, but its ...

Moth assemblages in Costa Rica rain forest mirror small‐scale topographic heterogeneity
Biotropica, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 288-301, March 2020., 2020 Abstract In many tropical lowland rain forests, topographic variation increases environmental heterogeneity, thus contributing to the extraordinary biodiversity of tropical lowland forests. While a growing number of studies have addressed effects of topographic differences on tropical insect communities at regional scales (e.g., along extensive ...

Whistling in caterpillars (Amorpha juglandis, Bombycoidea): sound-producing mechanism and function [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2011 SUMMARYCaterpillar defenses have been researched extensively, and, although most studies focus on visually communicated signals, little is known about the role that sounds play in defense. We report on whistling, a novel form of sound production for caterpillars and rare for insects in general.
