Non-canonical Eclosion Hormone-Expressing Cells Regulate Drosophila Ecdysis

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Eclosion hormone (EH) was originally identified as a brain-derived hormone capable of inducing the behavioral sequences required for molting across insect species.

Mean temperature determines whether winter variability accelerates or buffers energy loss

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Winter survival in dormant animals depends on conserving finite energy reserves, yet winter temperatures fluctuate around shifting means. In ectotherms, metabolic rate increases exponentially with temperature, so thermal variability is expected to accelerate energy loss,

Eclosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Eclosion is also a metaphor for my journey through Fashion Design, going through ups and downs in my schooling as I've learned, molded and refined my perspective as a designer.

Regression analysis of eclosion rates, logarithm of fungal conidial concentrations (Log C) and ITYP.

open access: yes, 2016
A: eclosion rate and the logarithm of fungal conidial concentrations; B: ITYP on post-eclosion day 3 and the logarithm of fungal conidial concentrations; C: ITYP on post-eclosion days 3 and 8.

Building a Beetle: How Larval Environment Leads to Adult Performance in a Horned Beetle. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The link between the expression of the signals used by male animals in contests with the traits which determine success in those contests is poorly understood.

Local adaptation to host plants in herbivorous insects: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Local adaptation, wherein populations are well‐adapted to local biotic and abiotic conditions, is a common outcome of natural selection and a driver of diversification.

Eclosion success.

open access: yes, 2022
Eclosion success of offspring across single- and double-exposures for (a) zeta-cypermethrin (N = 17–20), (b) spinetoram (N = 8–10), and (c) pyrethrin (N = 5–10). Different letters indicate significant post-hoc differences between treatments (Tukey’s Test,

Encapsulation and Melanization Are Not Correlated to Successful Immune Defense Against Parasitoid Wasps in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesCells
Parasitoid elimination in Drosophila melanogaster involves special hemocytes, called lamellocytes, which encapsulate the eggs or larvae of the parasitoid wasps. The capsules are melanized, and metabolites of the melanization reaction may play a potential

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
