New pathway of utilization of ammonia nitrogen for the synthesis of amino acids through NADH dependent transaminases in Bombyx mori L. [PDF]
NADH dependent transamination was recorded for the first time in silkworm Bombyx mori (L.) eggs and in larval tissues. L-Glutamine:2-oxoglutarate amino transferase (GOGAT) and L-asparagine:2-oxoglutarate amino transferase (AOGAT) were determined in ...

The variable diapause features of bivoltine silkworm (Bombyx mori) strains regulated by environmental signals in the embryonic stage are closely related to epigenetics. Previously, we showed that the expression of YTHDF3 is significantly different in the

In utero domoic acid toxicity: a fetal basis to adult disease in the California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) [PDF]
California sea lions have been a repeated subject of investigation for early life toxicity, which has been documented to occur with increasing frequency from late February through mid-May in association with organochlorine (PCB and DDT) poisoning and ...

Summary: Embryonic diapause is a temporary suspension of proliferation in mammalian pre-implantation embryos, allowing for reactivation later. Cells in mouse diapause embryos enter the G0 phase within 7 days of diapause initiation.

Chemical Composition of the Eggs of the Freshwater Turtle Phrynops hilarii (Chelidae: Testudines) [PDF]
At oviposition, amniote eggs contain all the nutrients required for complete neonate tissue development. For reptiles and birds, the egg yolk is the main embryonic energy source and is composed predominantly of proteins and lipids, while also providing ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Fungal Ecdysteroid-22-oxidase, a New Tool for Manipulating Ecdysteroid Signaling and Insect Development [PDF]
Steroid hormones ecdysteroids regulate varieties of developmental processes in insects. Although the ecdysteroid titer can be increased experimentally with ease, its artificial reduction, although desirable, is very difficult to achieve.

The history of the discovery of embryonic diapause in mammals [PDF]
The first incidence of embryonic diapause in mammals was observed in the roe deer, Capreolus capreolus, in 1854 and confirmed in the early 1900s. Since then scientists have been fascinated by this phenomenon that allows a growing embryo to become arrested for up to 11 months and then reactivate and continue development with no ill effects. The study of

Regulatory mechanisms of reproduction in locusts and grasshoppers
Regulatory networks composed of numerous coding and noncoding genes play crucial roles in the reproduction of locusts and grasshoppers. This review integrates mechanistic advances in reproductive regulation, highlighting environmentally adaptive pathways and providing prospective targets for eco‐friendly pesticides.
