The gut microbiota diversity of five Orthoptera (Insecta, Polyneoptera) insects determined by DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
Most orthopteran insects are phytophagous and some are important pests in agriculture and forests. Many intestinal microflora of Orthoptera insects have been reported, primarily from Acridoidea and there have been few reports of other taxa. In this study,

Phylogenomic analysis sheds light on the evolutionary pathways towards acoustic communication in Orthoptera. [PDF]
Acoustic communication is enabled by the evolution of specialised hearing and sound producing organs. In this study, we performed a large-scale macroevolutionary study to understand how both hearing and sound production evolved and affected ...

The comparative mitogenomics and phylogenetics of the two grouse-grasshoppers (Insecta, Orthoptera, Tetrigoidea) [PDF]
Objective This study aimed to reveal the mitochondrial genomes (mtgenomes) of Tetrix japonica and Alulatettix yunnanensis, and the phylogenetics of Orthoptera species. Methods The mtgenomes of A. yunnanensis and T.

Developing and Applying RNA Empirical Models With Secondary Structure Insights for Orthoptera Phylogenetics. [PDF]
In the RNA secondary structure, paired regions experience stronger natural selection pressure than unpaired regions and are characterized by a higher density of coevolutionary sites. The empirical RNA evolutionary model that fully incorporates all base pairings can generate more reliable phylogenetic relationships.

The first Cretaceous Eumastacoidea (Orthoptera, Caelifera) from Burmese amber [PDF]
A new genus and species of fossil Eumastacoidea Burr, 1899 from Kachin amber is described. Burmeumastax lexiae gen. et sp. nov. is the 14th member of this superfamily known from fossil material and only the third to predate the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg)

Positive Selection Drove the Adaptation of Mitochondrial Genes to the Demands of Flight and High-Altitude Environments in Grasshoppers. [PDF]
The molecular evolution of mitochondrial genes responds to changes in energy requirements and to high altitude adaptation in animals, but this has not been fully explored in invertebrates.
