Species and life stages of Odonata nymphs sampled with large drift nets in two Wisconsin rivers [PDF]
, 2017 Because relatively few nymphs of Odonata are caught in most drift studies, they have been inconsistently reported and little is known about the species and life stages that are predisposed to drift.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.This study explored the antibacterial, antivirulence, and in vivo effects of Algrizea minor essential oil (EOAM), against MRSA isolates. Chemical analysis by GC‐MS has been performed. The oil exhibited synergistic effects when combined with amoxicillin and oxacillin, inhibiting biofilm formation and reducing S. aureus‐induced hemolysis.

The PP2A‐B56 Binding Site LxxIxE Contributes to Asp‐Mediated Spindle Pole Stability
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The organization of microtubules into a mitotic spindle is critical for animal cell proliferation and involves the cooperation of hundreds of proteins whose molecular roles and regulation are not fully understood. The protein product of the Drosophila gene abnormal spindle, Asp, is a microtubule‐associated protein required for correct mitotic ...

Observations of Spring Larvae of \u3ci\u3eLycaeides Melissa Samuelis (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) in Central Wisconsin [PDF]
, 2017 At 36 sampling sites in central Wisconsin 1991-94, 358 spring larvae of the Karner blue (Lycaeides melissa samuelis) ranged from 1.9-17.0 mm in length, with only two \u3e15.0 mm.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Elastic tethers connect telomeres of separating chromosomes in anaphase of animal cells. Immunofluorescence staining of titin in crane‐fly spermatocytes, using 4 different antibodies, shows that the giant elastic protein titin seems to be a component of mitotic tethers: titin “strands” extend between separating chromosomes, connecting their ...

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

The Life Cycle Relative to Temperature of Protaphorura Armatus (Tullberg) (Collembola: Onychiuridae), a Parathenogenetic Species [PDF]
, 2017 Apparent parthenogenetic reproduction in Collembola has sometimes been attributed to accidental transfer of spermatophores with the food material from one culture to another (Schaller, 1953; Mayer, 1957).

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Robinow syndrome is a rare developmental syndrome caused by variants in genes in Wnt signaling pathways. We previously showed that expression of patient variants in Dishevelled 1 (DVL1) in Drosophila and chicken models disrupts the balance of canonical and non‐canonical Wnt signaling.
