The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of varying levels of defatted mealworm as a substitute for fish meal on the growth, intestinal health, and intestinal microflora of juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca). Juveniles were fed diets containing 54% protein and 12% lipid over an 8‐week period, with defatted mealworms replacing 0%, 25%, 50%

The transformer2 gene in Musca domestica is required for selecting and maintaining the female pathway of development [PDF]
We present the isolation and functional analysis of a transformer2 homologue Mdtra2 in the housefly Musca domestica. Compromising the activity of this gene by injecting dsRNA into embryos causes complete sex reversal of genotypically female individuals ...
