Coleoptera

open access: yes, 2001
28 Coleoptera Tarsi are five­segmented in most groups of Coleoptera. However reduction in number of tarsomeres occurs in several lineages (e.g. Chrysomeloidea). The ventral side of the proximal tarsomeres is covered with a very dense layer of hairs in males or both sexes of many coleopteran species (Fig. 3d, 5B,G,H).

Multiomics Reveal Associations Between CpG Methylation, Histone Modifications and Transcription in a Species That has Lost DNMT3, the Colorado Potato Beetle

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Despite lacking DNMT3, EM‐seq revealed CpG methylation in the Colorado potato beetle. CUT&Tag analysis showed an association of H3K36me3 and H3K27ac with transcription, with H3K36me3 mirroring CpG methylation, demonstrating epigenetic flexibility.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius
