Photoperiodism and Diapause in Insects [PDF]
DURING the past five years, work has been in progress at Rothamsted on rearing in the laboratory a number of plant-feeding insects. One of the aims has been to maintain supplies of insects in large numbers throughout the year. This has necessitated a study of the factors affecting diapause, the quiescent phase in which most plant-feeding insect species

Sitodiplosis mosellana, a notorious pest of wheat worldwide, copes with temperature extremes during harsh summers and winters by entering obligatory diapause as larvae. However, the metabolic adaptive mechanism underlying this process is largely unknown.

When to diapause or not to diapause? Winter predictability is not the answer [PDF]
A recommendation – based on reviews by Md Habibur Rahman Salman, Kévin Tougeron and one anonymous referee – of the article: Joschinski, J., and Bonte, D. (2020). Diapause is not selected as a bet-hedging strategy in insects: a meta-analysis of reaction norm shapes. BioRxiv, 752881, ver. 3 recommended and peer-reviewed by PCI Ecology.

Steroid hormone ecdysone deficiency stimulates preparation for photoperiodic reproductive diapause.
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.

Regulation of diapause in carnivores [PDF]
ContentsEmbryonic diapause is an evolutionary strategy to ensure that offspring are born when maternal and environmental conditions are optimal for survival. In many species of carnivores, obligate embryonic diapause occurs in every gestation. In mustelids, the regulation of diapause and reactivation is influenced by photoperiod, which then acts to ...

Adult Diapause in Coleoptera [PDF]
Recent studies dealing with adult (reproductive) diapause in the Coleoptera are reviewed, as a kind of supplement to the classic compendia. In the first two sections, the general characteristics of adult diapause are described and principal terms ...

Is diapause an ancient adaptation in Drosophila?
D. melanogaster enters a state of reproductive arrest when exposed to low temperatures (12°C) and shorter photoperiods. A number of studies have suggested that diapause has recently evolved in European D.

Circadian Clock Genes Regulate Temperature-Dependent Diapause Induction in Silkworm Bombyx mori
The bivoltine strain of the domestic silkworm, Bombyx mori, exhibits a facultative diapause phenotype that is determined by maternal environmental conditions during embryonic and larval development.

SAV1 in Cooperation With FKBP52 Participates in Implantation
The MST‐SAV1 complex modulates FKBP52 phosphorylation to fine‐tune PR activity, ensuring timely uterine transition to receptivity under estrogen signaling for implantation. Stromal SAV1 scaffolds MST1/2‐mediated FKBP52 phosphorylation via noncanonical Hippo to promote PR activity.
