Predicting the potential geographical distribution of the harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis, using the CLIMEX model - BioControl [PDF]

, 2008
Harmonia axyridis (Pallas, 1773) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) is a ladybird beetle native to temperate and subtropical parts of Asia. Since 1916 populations of this species have been introduced throughout the world, either deliberately, or by accident ...

Phenological shifts and increases in voltinism within a moth community over a century of anthropogenic change. [PDF]

Ecology
Abstract In temperate ecosystems, warming temperatures can advance spring phenology, extend autumn phenology, disrupt dormancy regulation, result in phenological mismatch across taxa, and even lead to increases in the number of generations per year (i.e., increases in voltinism).

Life Cycles of \u3ci\u3eLeuctra Duplicata\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eOstrocerca Prolongata\u3c/i\u3e in an Intermittent Streamlet in Quebec (Plecoptera: Leuctridae and Nemouridae) [PDF]

, 2017
Large populations of Ostrocerca prolongata and Leuctra duplicata developed in a small intermittent stream in the foothills of the Laurentian Highlands of Quebec. Both species were univoltine in 1974-1975.

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.

Historical changes in the phenology of British Odonata are related to climate [PDF]

, 2007
Responses of biota to climate change take a number of forms including distributional shifts, behavioural changes and life history changes. This study examined an extensive set of biological records to investigate changes in the timing of life history ...

Sequencing, Expression, and Functional Analyses of Four Genes Related to Fatty Acid Biosynthesis During the Diapause Process in the Female Ladybird, Coccinella septempunctata L.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
The ladybird Coccinella septempunctata L., a predatory insect, serves as an excellent biological control agent against common agricultural pests. It undergoes a diapause phenomenon, during which a large amount of fat accumulates in the abdomen.

Pulse of inflammatory proteins in the pregnant uterus of European polecats (Mustela putorius) leading to the time of implantation [PDF]

, 2017
Uterine secretory proteins protect the uterus and conceptuses against infection, facilitate implantation, control cellular damage resulting from implantation, and supply pre-implantation embryos with nutrients.

Embryonic Diapause

Veterinary Journal of Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, 2021
Embryonic diapause or temporary cessation of embryonic development is a common phenomenon in the plant and animal species. Embryonic diapause is a temporary cessation of the development of embryogenesis in the blastocyst stage and is a reproductive strategy characterized by delayed implantation in the uterus.

Steroid hormone ecdysone deficiency stimulates preparation for photoperiodic reproductive diapause.

PLoS Genetics, 2021
Diapause, a programmed developmental arrest primarily induced by seasonal environmental changes, is very common in the animal kingdom, and found in vertebrates and invertebrates alike.
