Endocrine Regulation of Lifespan in Insect Diapause
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Diapause is a physiological adaptation to conditions that are unfavorable for growth or reproduction. During diapause, animals become long-lived, stress-resistant, developmentally static, and non-reproductive, in the case of diapausing adults.

Molecular signatures of diapause in the Asian longhorned beetle: Gene expression
Current Research in Insect Science, 2023 Most previous studies on gene expression during insect diapause do not address among-tissue variation in physiological processes. We measured transcriptomic changes during larval diapause in the Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis ...

Deciphering proteomic signatures of early diapause in Nasonia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Insect diapause is an alternative life-history strategy used to increase longevity and survival in harsh environmental conditions. Even though some aspects of diapause are well investigated, broader scale studies that elucidate the global metabolic ...

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.

European Journal of Entomology, 2009 To determine the relationship between protein expression and insect diapause, a proteomic approach was used to investigate the proteins extracted from larvae of the wheat blossom midge Sitodiplosis mosellana Gehin at different developmental stages ...

The molecular mechanisms of diapause and diapause-like reversible arrest
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2023 Diapause is a protective mechanism that many organisms deploy to overcome environmental adversities. Diapause extends lifespan and fertility to enhance the reproductive success and survival of the species. Although diapause states have been known and employed for commercial purposes, for example in the silk industry, detailed molecular and cell ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2000 Adult diapause in Riptortus clavatus (Thunberg) was induced by short-day photoperiods, and the critical daylength for its induction was 13.5 h. When insects were reared from eggs under diapause-inducing photoperiods near the critical daylength, the ...

Temporal population genetics of time travelling insects: a long term study in a seed-specialized wasp. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Many animal species experiencing spatial or interannual fluctuations of their environment are capable of prolonged diapause, a kind of dormancy that extends over more than one year.
