Locust Instar Classification Using Deep Learning
Across the world widespread crop devastation is caused by locusts, contributing to billions of dollars worth of lost food every year. Locusts are difficult to counteract, with major obstacles occurring when trying to track their migration. Work has been done to develop methods of locust tracking using traditional forecasting methods and expertise from ...

Within- and Across-Generational Effects of Temperature: Exposure of <i>Manduca sexta</i> Larvae to Heat Stress Impacts Future Reproduction and Offspring Development. [PDF]
We assessed how an acute heat shock event experienced at two different points in Manduca sexta larval development (early and late) impacted adult performance and fitness traits and whether thermal exposure of parents elicited plastic changes in offspring traits.

In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry

Dynamic eIF3-S6 Phase Separation Switch Instructed by m<sup>6</sup>A Modification Drives the Molting of Locusts. [PDF]
This research reveals that reduced m6A modifications during insect molting trigger liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of the m6A reader eIF3‐S6, which binds and stabilizes key molting mRNAs, including EcR and Cht10. Disrupting m6A or LLPS causes cuticle remodeling defects and molting failure, highlighting the synergistic control of gene expression ...
