Versatile roles of disordered transcription factor effector domains in transcriptional regulation
Disordered effector domains (EDs) of transcription factors (TFs) play versatile roles in transcriptional regulation. These include mediating protein–protein interactions with protein complexes like, facilitating condensate formation to enhance transcriptional efficiency, modulating DNA‐binding specificity through genome scanning, and serving as hubs ...

Neural coding of naturalistic motion stimuli
We study a wide field motion sensitive neuron in the visual system of the blowfly {\em Calliphora vicina}. By rotating the fly on a stepper motor outside in a wooded area, and along an angular motion trajectory representative of natural flight, we ...

Carrion‐breeding flies of Australia and New Zealand: A review and key to adults
Abstract Carrion‐breeding flies are diverse with over 70 species in the Australasian/Oceanian region, predominantly from the families Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae. These flies play crucial roles in ecosystems as primary decomposers, pollinators and food sources for a variety of predators and parasites.

A `bright zone' in male hoverfly (Eristalis tenax) eyes and associated faster motion detection and increased contrast sensitivity [PDF]
Eyes of the hoverfly Eristalis tenax are sexually dimorphic such that males have a fronto-dorsal region of large facets. In contrast to other large flies in which large facets are associated with a decreased interommatidial angle to form a dorsal `acute ...

Origins and Diversification of Myiasis Across Blowflies
This study investigates the evolutionary path to parasitism in blowflies, modeling traits such as trophic specialization, larval food substrate, and developmental temperature. Our results support that blowfly parasitism evolved from saprophagy or facultative parasitism, emphasizing the crucial role of facultative parasitism as a transitional stage ...

How aphids fly: Take‐off, free flight and implications for short and long distance migration
Abstract An introduction to high‐speed photography and its entomological impact is provided, emphasizing the importance of high frame rates and high resolution. The take‐off and free flight of Drepanosiphum platanoidis and Myzus persicae were studied in still air using high‐speed photography in HD. The wing tip and body posture were tracked to show how
