Eicosanoids mediate insect hemocyte migration

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2008
Hemocyte migration toward infection and wound sites is an essential component of insect defense reactions, although the biochemical signal mechanisms responsible for mediating migration in insect cells are not well understood. Here we report on the outcomes of experiments designed to test the hypotheses that (1) insect hemocytes are able to detect and ...

Insect Migration

2010
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Entomologists recognize migratory behavior as persistent and straightened-out locomotory activity that enables preemptive escape from ephemeral habitats before they deteriorate and timely colonization of newly favorable ones.

Active muscle migration during insect metamorphosis

Tissue and Cell, 1984
The R1 abdominal retractor muscles of the insect Tenebrio molitor change position during the course of metamorphosis. These muscles detach from the epidermal tendon cells at their anterior ends, and migrate in a posterior direction, parallel to the body axis, to form completely new attachments shortly before adult emergence. Movement is preceded by the

Altitudinal migration of insects

Entomological Science, 2020
AbstractA number of insects have been suggested to perform seasonal migration between low‐ and high‐altitude areas. In these insects, support for the occurrence of migration mainly came from observations that focal insects disappeared from a certain range of altitudes but appeared at different altitudes with short time lags.

How and Why Do Insects Migrate?

Science, 2006
Countless numbers of insects migrate within and between continents every year, and yet we know very little about the ultimate reasons and proximate mechanisms that would explain these mass movements. Here we suggest that perhaps the most important reason for insects to migrate is to hedge their reproductive bets.

Migration Strategies of Insects

Science, 1972
Physiological and ecological results from a variety of species are consistent with what seem to be valid general statements concerning insect migration. These are as follows: (i) During migration locomotory functions are enhanced and vegetative functions such as feeding and reproduction are suppressed.

Insect Migration

1995
Migration is a key process in the population dynamics of many insects, including some of the most damaging pests. Multidisciplinary research into the importance of migration, in recent decades, has produced many new insights. This book reviews current understanding of the ecological, behavioural, physiological and genetic bases of insect migration. The

Trillions of Insects Migrate

Scientific American, 2017
The article focuses on a 10-year study which found that more than 3.3 trillion insects migrate high above southern Great Britain from 2000-2009 especially in spring and fall. Topics covered include the net movement of bugs by tons of biomass that travel overhead at heights greater than about 500 feet, the overall direction of insect flight, and the ...

On the Migration of Insects

1964
The enormous literature written on the subject of insect migrations has already been reviewed in a number of excellent monographs, the most complete — for its day — being the one by FRaenkel (1932), and the most recent, the one by WIlliams (1958).
