In silico identification of off-target pesticidal dsRNA binding in honey bees (Apis mellifera) [PDF]
Background Pesticidal RNAs that silence critical gene function have great potential in pest management, but the benefits of this technology must be weighed against non-target organism risks.

The Nuclear Receptor Genes HR3 and E75 Are Required for the Circadian Rhythm in a Primitive Insect [PDF]
Insect circadian rhythms are generated by a circadian clock consisting of transcriptional/translational feedback loops, in which CYCLE and CLOCK are the key elements in activating the transcription of various clock genes such as timeless (tim) and period

Abstract Microalgae are a valuable source of nutrients that are widely used in aquaculture to support the growth of aquatic species. This study aimed to assess the effect of replacing fishmeal with Spirulina powder (Arthrospira platensis) on the growth, survival, body coloration, and meat quality of Macrobrachium caementarius.

Effects of flanking sequences and cellular context on subcellular behavior and pathology of mutant HTT [PDF]
Huntington’s disease (HD) is caused by an expansion of a poly glutamine (polyQ) stretch in the huntingtin protein (HTT) that is necessary to cause pathology and formation of HTT aggregates.

Effects of the alarm pheromone on Triatoma pallidipennis behaviour
T. pallidipennis performs behavioural acts in response to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. T. pallidipennis shows a repellent response when exposed to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. Isobutyric and propanoic acids can be used as repellents of T. pallidipennis. Abstract Adults of some Triatomine species,

Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) production in California follows a norm of mono‐cropping with little to no rotations or fallows. Both winter droughts, which lead to water restrictions, and spring rains, which inhibit field machinery operations, have resulted in increased fallow frequencies, where no crop is grown during the summer growing season.
