Whole Genome Assembly and Annotation of Two Invasive Sitona Species

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weevils are a highly diversified taxon, comprising about 70,000 described species, including many of high economic importance. Here, we present whole genome assemblies and annotations of two Sitona species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae).

Multiple pigment cell types contribute to the black, blue, and orange ornaments of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The fitness of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) highly depends on the size and number of their black, blue, and orange ornaments. Recently, progress has been made regarding the genetic mechanisms underlying male guppy pigment pattern formation, but we ...

Male phenotype predicts insemination success in guppies [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002
Theory predicts that mate choice can lead to an increase in female fecundity if the secondary sexual traits used by females to assess male quality covary with the number of sperm transferred during copulation. Where females mate multiply, such a relationship between male attractiveness and ejaculate size may, additionally (or alternatively), serve to ...

The Telehealth Skills, Training, and Implementation Project: An evaluation protocol [PDF]

, 2015
External stabilization is reported to improve reliability of hand held dynamometry, yet this has not been tested in burns. We aimed to assess the reliability of dynamometry using an external system of stabilization in people with moderate burn injury and

A wild‐caught rosy barb Pethia conchonius in a British urban pond underscores the need to prevent aquarium releases

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A specimen of rosy barb Pethia conchonius of 51 mm standard length, encountered in an urban pond in London, is reported. This small cyprinid is native to lakes and streams in subtropical regions of southern Asia and is commonly sold as an ornamental fish.

GuPPy, a Python toolbox for the analysis of fiber photometry data

Scientific Reports, 2021
Fiber photometry (FP) is an adaptable method for recording in vivo neural activity in freely behaving animals. It has become a popular tool in neuroscience due to its ease of use, low cost, the ability to combine FP with freely moving behavior, among ...

Behavioural consequences of sensory plasticity in guppies [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010
Sensory plasticity, whereby individuals compensate for sensory deprivation in one sense by an improvement in the performance of an alternative sense, is a well-documented phenomenon in nature. Despite this, the behavioural and ecological consequences of sensory plasticity have not been addressed. Here we show experimentally that some components (vision

Nonapeptide cell size differs between male morphs of the West African cichlid, Pelvicachromis pulcher

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Alternative male morphs are found in many species of fishes. These morphs often differ in suites of social behaviours, such as aggression and territoriality, associated with alternative reproductive tactics. Such consistent morph‐typical behavioural profiles suggest common differences in underlying neuroendocrine mechanisms.
