Nothobranchius annual killifishes
EvoDevo, 2020 Annual fishes of the genus Nothobranchius inhabit ephemeral habitats in Eastern and Southeastern Africa. Their life cycle is characterized by very rapid maturation, a posthatch lifespan of a few weeks to months and embryonic diapause to survive the dry ...

Data from: Energy and lipid metabolism during direct and diapause development in a pierid butterfly [PDF]
, 2016 Diapause is a fundamental component of the life-cycle in the majority of insects living in environments characterized by strong seasonality. The present study addresses poorly understood associations and trade-offs between endogenous diapause duration ...

Genomic evidence for correlated trait combinations and antagonistic selection contributing to counterintuitive genetic patterns of adaptive diapause divergence in Rhagoletis flies [PDF]
, 2020 Adaptation to novel environments often results in unanticipated genomic responses to selection. Here, we illustrate how multifarious, correlational selection helps explain a counterintuitive pattern of genetic divergence between the recently derived ...

Geographic Variation of Diapause Induction and Termination in the Spider Mite Tetrαnychus urticαe: Α mini-review [PDF]
, 2017 In eight strains of the spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), originating from different localities in Europe, the critical daylength for diapause induction and termination was almost the same in each strain but varied with the ...

2001: Effect of thermoperiod on diapause intensity in Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae [PDF]
, 2020 The intensity of adult diapause in Pyrrhocoris apterus was measured in two series of experiments as the duration of pre-oviposition period at a constant temperature of 25°C after transfer from short (12L:12D) to long day conditions (18L:6D).

Diapause in the calanoid freshwater copepod Eudiaptomus graciloides [PDF]
, 2004 The seasonal appearance and the intensity of diapausing-egg production in Eudiaptomus graciloides in five lakes of different size and trophic level were studied. In all lakes, diapausing eggs were produced in autumn.

Photoperiodism and diapause in Daphnia: a strategy for all seasons [PDF]
, 1900 Polymorphism and diapause in arthropods may be evoked by photoperiod, although control is sometimes conditional to a certain range of temperature or an adequate diet (Lees, 1953; Paris and Jenner, 1959; Adkisson et al., 1963; Danilev skii, 1965). Further

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Ecophysiological studies on invertebrate diapause [PDF]
, 1997 Diapause performs two main functions in the life-cycle of an insect. In addition to protecting the organism from adverse seasonal conditions it synchronises active stages of development with optimal conditions for growth.

Effect of larval density on development and diapause of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lef.) (Lep., Noctuidae) under laboratory conditions [PDF]
, 1999 The effect of larval density on development and diapause of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lef.) was examined. Larvae were grown on an artificial diet at densities of five, 10, 20, 30 and 40 larvae per box, under two environmental (diapause-including and diapause-
