Manipulation of carbohydrate diet and ensuing changes in weight and glycogen storage in bumble bee (Bombus impatiens) queens [PDF]
, 2014 Bumble bees serve as important pollinators for human crops, but many of their populations have declined over the past 60 years. Bumble bee population decline is very important for humans because it reduces pollination services, which can lead to lower ...

Response of Saddled Prominent (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) Pupae to Desiccation, Cold Treatment, and Post-Cold Treatment Incubation Temperature [PDF]
, 2017 Saddled prominent, Heterocampa guttivitta, pupae were placed at 1.5oC for 50 to 200 days, then incubated at one of four post-cold temperatures ranging from 10° to 26.7°C. Adults emerged from pupae exposed to all cold treatment periods.

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.

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.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.In Mediterranean walnut orchards, Ectomyelois ceratoniae replaces Cydia pomonella as the primary pest. Capture peaks between packing tissue brown (PTB) stage and husk dehiscence define a critical window for monitoring and early harvest to prevent kernel infestation.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Starvation stress significantly affected the growth and development of Hippodamia variegata. Combined transcriptome and metabolome analysis and RNA interference verification revealed that HvarAKR1B1 may be involved in the response of Hippodamia variegata to starvation stress.
