Molecular Regulators of Embryonic Diapause and Cancer Diapause-like State
Cells, 2022 Embryonic diapause is an enigmatic state of dormancy that interrupts the normally tight connection between developmental stages and time. This reproductive strategy and state of suspended development occurs in mice, bears, roe deer, and over 130 other mammals and favors the survival of newborns.

Suppression of transgenerational lipid provisioning inhibits desiccation resistance, but not diapause, in the vector mosquito, Aedes albopictus [PDF]
Scientific ReportsTransgenerational signaling allows many organisms to anticipate seasonal variation. Diapause, a hormonally-programmed period of developmental arrest, is a widespread anticipatory seasonal response that is often mediated by transgenerational signaling ...

The enigma of embryonic diapause [PDF]
Development, 2017 Embryonic diapause – a period of embryonic suspension at the blastocyst stage – is a fascinating phenomenon that occurs in over 130 species of mammals, ranging from bears and badgers to mice and marsupials. It might even occur in humans. During diapause, there is minimal cell division and greatly reduced metabolism, and development is put on hold.

Identification of Central Regulatory Hubs in Pupal Diapause of Helicoverpa armigera Using Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis and Multiscale Embedded Network Analysis [PDF]
InsectsDiapause is a vital overwintering strategy for many insects, yet its comprehensive molecular architecture remains elusive. In the polyphagous pest Helicoverpa armigera, facultative pupal diapause is key to its ecological success. To elucidate the complex

Molecular Correlates of Diapause in Aphidoletes aphidimyza
InsectsThe aphidophagous gall midge, Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), a dominant natural enemy of aphids, has been used as a biological control agent in many countries to control aphids in greenhouses.

Maternal GABAergic and GnRH/corazonin pathway modulates egg diapause phenotype of the silkworm Bombyx mori [PDF]
, 2021 Diapause represents a major developmental switch in insects and is a seasonal adaptation that evolved as a specific subtype of dormancy in most insect species to ensure survival under unfavorable environmental conditions and synchronize populations ...

Diapause among the flesh flies (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)
European Journal of Entomology, 2022 The rich diversity of information focusing on pupal diapause in the sarcophagids makes this fly family among the best-understood diapause models. This review summarizes the occurrence of pupal diapause in flesh flies from broad geographic regions of the ...

Prothoracicotropic hormone acts as a neuroendocrine switch between pupal diapause and adult development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Diapause is a programmed developmental arrest that has evolved in a wide variety of organisms and allows them survive unfavorable seasons. This developmental state is particularly common in insects.
