Insects, 2019 Diapause control is one of the successful methods for long-term cold storage of biological control organisms without decreasing their fitness. Sufficient preparation before diapause is essential for successful diapause initiation and maintenance ...

Temperature-induced embryonic diapause in chickens is mediated by PKC-NF-κB-IRF1 signaling
BMC Biology, 2023 Background Embryonic diapause (dormancy) is a state of temporary arrest of embryonic development that is triggered by unfavorable conditions and serves as an evolutionary strategy to ensure reproductive survival.

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

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 ...

Life History of \u3ci\u3eMesovelia Mulsanti\u3c/i\u3e (Hemiptera: Mesoveliidae) in Southern Illinois [PDF]
, 2017 The life history of Mesovelia mulsanti was studied during 1983-1986. This species was apparently trivoltine with a partial 4th generation at the end of the year. It overwintered as eggs. First ins tars appeared in mid-April followed by marked overlapping

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.

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 ...
