Appearance of differentiated cells derived from polar body nuclei in the silkworm, Bombyx mori [PDF]

, 2013
In Bombyx mori, polar body nuclei are observed until 9 h after egg lying, however, the fate of polar body nuclei remains unclear. To examine the fate of polar body nuclei, we employed a mutation of serosal cell pigmentation, pink-eyed white egg (pe). The

Rapid Identification of Edible Insect Species in Food Using MALDI‐TOF Mass Spectrometry

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 13, 15 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Edible insects are emerging as sustainable, nutritious ‘foods of the future’ and are gradually introduced to the European market as novel foods. Ensuring consumer safety and preventing fraud requires legal regulation, which in turn depends on reliable analytical methods.

Generation of microsatellite repeat families by RTE retrotransposons in lepidopteran genomes [PDF]

, 2010
Background Developing lepidopteran microsatellite DNA markers can be problematical, as markers often exhibit multiple banding patterns and high frequencies of non-amplifying "null" alleles.

Developmental expression of Ap‐Vas proteins in aphids and flies reveals their evolutionary roles in insects

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 217-231, June 2026.
Duplication of vas genes is universally observed in aphids, and phylogenetic analysis indicates that this event predates the divergence of Aphididae and Phylloxeridae. Ap‐vas1 is germline‐specific, whereas Ap‐vas2–4 exhibit somatic expression, indicating functional divergence during aphid embryogenesis.

Downregulation of BmSTAT transcription factor promoted nucleopolyhedrovirus replication in Bombyx mori

Frontiers in Microbiology
The Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the viral immune processes of organisms, with STAT being a key transcription factor downstream in this pathway. The STAT gene of Bombyx
