Juvenile Hormone Is Required in Adult Males for Drosophila Courtship

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Juvenile Hormone (JH) has a prominent role in the regulation of insect development. Much less is known about its roles in adults, although functions in reproductive maturation have been described.

From Devices to Systems: Integration Strategies for Micro‐Supercapacitors in Microsystems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micro‐supercapacitors are evolving from device‐level energy storage toward system‐level functional units in integrated microsystems. This Review presents a system‐oriented design framework in which integration serves as the key link between application requirements, system constraints, device architectures, and material selection. Monolithic and hybrid

Acoustic duetting in Drosophila virilis relies on the integration of auditory and tactile signals

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Many animal species, including insects, are capable of acoustic duetting, a complex social behavior in which males and females tightly control the rate and timing of their courtship song syllables relative to each other.

Multimodal chemosensory circuits controlling male courtship in Drosophila

open access: yesNeuron, 2015
Summary Throughout the animal kingdom, internal states generate long-lasting and self-perpetuating chains of behavior. In Drosophila, males instinctively pursue females with a lengthy and elaborate courtship ritual triggered by activation of sexually ...

Flexoelectric Suppression of Interfacial Carrier Loss in BaTiO3 Thin‐Film Bulk Photovoltaic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In single‐crystalline BaTiO3 thin films, flexoelectric strain gradients strongly enhance photocurrent by suppressing interfacial carrier loss. Loading experiments reveal a ∼35‐fold photocurrent increase with applied force. Self‐consistent electrostatic modeling shows that strain gradients reshape the interfacial potential landscape, strengthen local ...

Atomically Dispersed Mo–S Sites Boost NiFe–Layered Double Hydroxide for Industrial‐Level Seawater Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
(Mo–S)1@NiFe–LDH promotes the rapid structural transition to the active oxyhydroxide phase, enabling selective seawater oxidation at industrial‐level current densities. Atomically dispersed Mo–S sites within the LDH lattice efficaciously modulate the structural flexibility to lower the thermodynamic barrier for early‐phase activation.

Ritualized ink use during visual courtship display by males of the sexually dimorphic cuttlefish Sepia andreana

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Visual display is a crucial aspect of courtship, and their success relies on both display quality and the surrounding environment, such as the visual background.

A red flag: an experimental analysis of the function of pink colouration in males of Calopteryx haemorrhoidalis asturica (Odonata: Calopterygidae)

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Males display phenotypic characteristics that may be associated with their quality, allowing non-random mating and post-copulatory female choice. In the damselfly Calopteryx haemorrhoidalis asturica, males have a conspicuous pink colouration in the ...

Identification of octopaminergic neurons that modulate sleep suppression by male sex drive

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Molecular and circuit mechanisms for balancing competing drives are not well understood. While circadian and homeostatic mechanisms generally ensure sufficient sleep at night, other pressing needs can overcome sleep drive.

Layered roles of fruitless isoforms in specification and function of male aggression-promoting neurons in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Inter-male aggressive behavior is a prominent sexually dimorphic behavior. Neural circuits that underlie aggressive behavior are therefore likely under the control of sex-determining genes.
