Gonadulin and Insulin‐Like Growth Factor Involved in Rhipicephalus microplus Reproduction
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Insulin‐like growth factor (IGF2) in ovaries of Rhipicephalus microplus partially engorged females. Ovaries from females at different feeding stages were used to detect IGF2. ABSTRACT Gonadulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) are neuropeptides synthesized by the central nervous system (CNS) of arthropods.

How Do Female Pest Tephritids Behave During Male Courtship?
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.In this paper, the female role during male courtship was described for the first time in fruit flies. Our findings show that females imitate some male behaviors and suggest that certain behaviors are associated with male mating success. Indeed, the Mediterranean fruit fly displays fewer behavioral units (i.e., shorter courtship sequences) than ...
