The moulting arthropod: a complete genetic toolkit review

Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2338-2375, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Exoskeletons are a defining character of all arthropods that provide physical support for their segmented bodies and appendages as well as protection from the environment and predation. This ubiquitous yet evolutionarily variable feature has been instrumental in facilitating the adoption of a variety of lifestyles and the exploitation of ...

Transcriptome‐wide analysis uncovers regulatory elements of the antennal transcriptome repertoire of bumblebee at different life stages

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 571-588, December 2024.
The antennal transcriptome is highly dynamic at different developmental stages. The expression of chemosensory and olfactory receptors mainly was positively correlated. Some miRNAs have a marked stage‐specific expression pattern in the antenna. Differentially expressed miRNAs regulate gene networks that are important antennal functions.

Floral resource wastage: Most nectar produced by the mass‐flowering crop oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is uncollected by flower‐visiting insects

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
Previous work has quantified the highly abundant nectar and pollen produced by OSR, and some authors have recommended breeding cultivars that produce more floral resources to help insects. We show that a high proportion of floral resources produced by spring blooming OSR are uncollected.
