Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Almost all reduviids are predators; however, recent observations have shown that certain reduviids, particularly members of tribe Harpactorini (Harpactorinae) may be associated with specific plants as a strategy of predation and complementary nectarivory.

Despite 17 years of development, the effectiveness of nanocarrier‐delivered RNAi pesticide (NDRP) for agricultural biological control remains limited. The successful development of effective NDRP development requires the coordinated optimization of target gene selection and nanocarrier properties, including RNA dosage, multi‐gene targeting, protection ...

Aedes aegypti is almost completely restricted to human-modified environments, especially urban areas, and rarely invades forests. Ovitraps were utilized in a reserve (Bom Retiro) in Rio de Janeiro state. Eggs of A.

Understanding the processes structuring ecological communities is vital to underpin research, management and monitoring efforts. Historically, research has focused on the role of the habitat template in structuring benthic riverine communities, with limited consideration of subsurface hyporheic habitats.
