Measurement of Neuropeptides in Crustacean Hemolymph via MALDI Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
, 2009 Neuropeptides are often released into circulatory fluid (hemolymph) to act as circulating hormones and regulate many physiological processes. However, the detection of these low-level peptide hormones in circulation is often complicated by high salt ...

THE CHEMISTRY OF INSECT HEMOLYMPH [PDF]
The Journal of General Physiology, 1959 Free glycerol has been identified as a major solute in plasma of pupae of the silk moth, Hyalophora cecropia. Glycerol is not found in the blood of larvae; it appears about the time of pupation, and then gradually accumulates during diapause to reach after 6 months a level of about 0.3 M. When diapause is broken and the adult develops, glycerol rapidly

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Two virulence strategies in Beauveria: a growth strategy characterized by rapid within‐host proliferation, and a toxin strategy involving antimicrobial activity and toxicity to insects Abstract BACKGROUND Pathogen virulence is often attributed to toxin production, yet toxins are metabolically costly and may not universally enhance fitness.

Insect Science, EarlyView.The feasibility of using RNA interference to control the globally important quarantine pest, the spongy moth. Targeting genes related to JHs play an important role in the growth and development of insects. First, the open reading frames (ORFs) of Ldjhamt and Ldjheh were identified and characterized, and the target genes were cloned and double‐stranded ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
