Fitness consequences of population bottlenecks in an invasive blowfly

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 17, September 2024.
Abstract Invasive species often undergo demographic bottlenecks that cause a decrease in genetic diversity and associated reductions in population fitness. Despite this, they manage to thrive in novel environments. Investigating the effects of inbreeding and genetic bottlenecks on population fitness for invasive species is, therefore, key to ...

Resilin in Insect Flight Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 34, Issue 35, August 28, 2024.
The development of resilin‐based biomaterials for medical and industrial applications has been constantly advanced in recent years. Resilin is a rubber‐like protein that occurs in arthropod exoskeleton structures. In the insect flight system, its function depends on its overall location, protein sequence and mixture with stiffer exoskeleton components.

Mitochondrial DNA-based identification of developmental stages and empty puparia of forensically important flies (Diptera) in Egypt

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Science and Medicine, 2018
Relying on morphology in the estimation of postmortem intervals is not always accurate for all life phases of flies, especially for immature stages. The present study demonstrates the application of cytochrome oxidase I sequences, a partial mitochondrial
