Bearing selection in ball-rolling dung beetles: is it constant?
, 2010 Ball rolling in dung beetles is thought to have evolved as a means to escape intense inter- and intra-specific competition at the dung pile. Accordingly, dung beetles typically roll along a straight-line path away from the pile, this being the most ...

Dung beetles ignore landmarks for straight-line orientation
, 2012 Upon locating a suitable dung pile, ball-rolling dung beetles shape a piece of dung into a ball and roll it away in a straight line. This guarantees that they will not return to the dung pile, where they risk having their ball stolen by other beetles ...

The conservation of saproxylic beetles in boreal forest [PDF]
, 2006 Forest management has altered the age structure, tree species composition and dead wood availability of Swedish boreal forests. As a consequence, many saproxylic (wood living) insect species have decreased in abundance and many species are threatened ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...
