Analytical Study of Hexapod miRNAs using Phylogenetic Methods [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression. Identification of total number of miRNAs even in completely sequenced organisms is still an open problem. However, researchers have been using techniques that can predict limited number of miRNA in an organism.

Plant–arthropod associations in custard apples, genus Annona: A global perspective

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Annona species, commonly known as custard apples, engage with a wide range of arthropods, including both herbivores and pollinators, which shape their ecology. These plants produce secondary metabolites that may serve as natural defenses against pests.

Posterior Hox gene reduction in an arthropod: Ultrabithorax and Abdominal-B are expressed in a single segment in the mite Archegozetes longisetosus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Hox genes encode transcription factors that have an ancestral role in all bilaterian animals in specifying regions along the antero-posterior axis.

Population genomic analysis of Mahoenui giant wētā (Deinacrida mahoenui) reveals minimal reduction in genomic diversity following translocation

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
The Mahoenui giant wētā is an Aotearoa New Zealand endemic insect of conservation concern, having been extirpated from the majority of its natural range before rediscovery in the 1960s. We assess the genetic impacts of a translocation from the remaining population in the Mahoenui Giant Wētā Scientific Reserve to establish a new population on Mahurangi ...

Micro-terraforming by Antarctic springtails (Hexapoda: Entognatha) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Natural History, 2015
ABSTRACTIt has long been an axiom of Antarctic terrestrial ecology that interactions between terrestrial invertebrates and their abiotic environment are unidirectional: they are affected by their extreme environment in numerous ways, but they themselves do not affect their environment.

Tree hollow parameters and their effects on saproxylic arthropod diversity: A multi‐taxon approach

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Tree hollows are keystone structures for biodiversity in forests and support saproxylic arthropods but are declining in central Europe due to intensive forest management, threatening these invertebrate communities. Research using DNA metabarcoding examined non‐beetle arthropods in 40 beech tree hollows, exploring their habitat requirements in southern ...

Gene content evolution in the arthropods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Arthropods comprise the largest and most diverse phylum on Earth and play vital roles in nearly every ecosystem. Their diversity stems in part from variations on a conserved body plan, resulting from and recorded in adaptive changes in the genome ...
