Development and Reproduction of Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Heteroptera: Miridae): The Effect of Temperature, Origin and Food

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Nymphal development took longer at 25°C than 30°C, and the Greek N. tenuis population developed more slowly than the commercial population. Nymphs clearly preferred E. kuehniella eggs over Artemia sp. cysts when both were offered equally. Egg production increased at 30°C, while female longevity declined.

Differential gene expression according to race and host plant in the pea aphid [PDF]

, 2016
Host-race formation in phytophagous insects is thought to provide the opportunity for local adaptation and subsequent ecological speciation. Studying gene expression differences among host-races may help to identify phenotypes under (or resulting from ...

A carboxylesterase, Esterase-6, modulates sensory physiological and behavioral response dynamics to pheromone in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2012
Conclusions: Our study presents evidence that Est-6 plays a role in the physiological and behavioral dynamics of sex pheromone response in Drosophila males and supports a role of Est-6 as an odorant-degrading enzyme (ODE) in male antennae.

Teleost‐specific ictacalcins exhibit similar structural organization, cation‐dependent activation, and transcriptional regulation as human S100 proteins

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Calcium‐binding S100 proteins are important mediators of inflammation in humans. Distant members of this family have been recently discovered in teleost fish but their resemblance to human proteins has not been explored yet. This study demonstrates that zebrafish‐specific S100i1 and S100i2 (ictacalcins) possess identical structural organization and ...

Landscape of standing variation for tandem duplications in Drosophila yakuba and Drosophila simulans [PDF]

, 2014
We have used whole genome paired-end Illumina sequence data to identify tandem duplications in 20 isofemale lines of D. yakuba, and 20 isofemale lines of D. simulans and performed genome wide validation with PacBio long molecule sequencing. We identify 1,

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

Identification of chemosensory genes in the stingless bee Tetragonisca fiebrigi

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics
Abstract Reception of chemical information from the environment is crucial for insects' survival and reproduction. The chemosensory reception mainly occurs by the antennae and mouth parts of the insect, when the stimulus contacts the chemoreceptors located within the sensilla.

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Involvement of a Microplusin-like Gene (HlonML-1) in the Olfactory Chemosensation of Haemophysalis longicornis: Expression, RNA Silencing, and Behavioral Implications

Microorganisms
The study of tick olfaction is relatively new compared to that of insects, and the molecular mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. Despite several potential chemosensory genes identified in multiple tick species, these are yet to be validated ...

Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 749-777, April 2026.
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.
