INSECT MIGRATION (IN ORTHOGRAPHS)

Ethological features of locusts in the process of migration were studied and their nature was revealed. In particular, Dociostaurus kraussii Ing. and Calliptamus turanicus Tarb. belong to the group of individually migratory locusts. The locusts types of Calliptamus italicus italicus L. and Dociostaurus maroccanus Thunb. migrate in large numbers.

Seasonal variation in the migration strategies of the green lacewing Chrysoperla carnea species complex

, 2006
1. Insect migration strategies are generally poorly understood due to the propensity for high-altitude flight of many insect species, and the technical difficulties associated with observing these movements.

The most remarkable migrants—systematic analysis of the Western European insect flyway at a Pyrenean mountain pass [PDF]

In autumn 1950 David and Elizabeth Lack chanced upon a huge migration of insects and birds flying through the Pyrenean Pass of Bujaruelo, from France into Spain, later describing the spectacle as combining both grandeur and novelty. The intervening years

Paternal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Pesticide Clothianidin Alters Sperm MicroRNA Profiles in Mice and Intergenerationally Reduces Locomotor Activity in Male Offspring

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that paternal environmental factors have epigenetic effects on sperm and influence offspring. Neonicotinoid pesticides (NNs), which are widely used around the world, are known to affect offspring phenotypes through maternal exposure in mice, but the effect of the paternal exposure remains unknown.

Reconceptualizing Aplastic Anemia—Seed, Worm, Soil

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Aplastic anemia (AA) encompasses a group of hematological syndromes often misdiagnosed, resulting in a decrease in the overall blood cell count and representing a form of bone marrow failure. We reinterpret AA based on the “seed, worm, and soil” doctrine.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius
