Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

Changes in biomass and chemical composition during lecithotrophic larval development of the southern king crab, Lithodes santolla (Molina) [PDF]
Changes in biomass and elemental composition (dry mass, W; carbon, C; nitrogen, N; hydrogen, H) were studied in the laboratory during complete larval and early juvenile development of the southern king crab, Lithodes santolla (Molina), formerly known as ...

As extreme climatic events are becoming more frequent, we need to understand what mechanisms could buffer populations to ensure their persistence. Fragmented populations may be especially vulnerable, as exemplified by species with metapopulation dynamics whose persistence is determined by a precarious balance between frequent local extinctions and ...

Guidelines for Immunomodulatory Assays of Food Bioactives on Drosophila melanogaster Model
Guidelines are proposed for evaluating the immunomodulatory effects of food bioactives in Drosophila melanogaster, involving treatment with bioactives, pathogen preparation, infection routes, and immune response assessment. This model highlights the conserved mechanisms of cellular and humoral immunity for studying host‐microbe interactions.

LARVAL SPECIFIC CHARACTERS AND INSTARS OF ENGLISH BOMBIDAE
FOURTH instar larval characters of American BOMBIDAE (BREMIDAE) were described by Ritcher (1933) for nine species of Bombus (Bremus) and one species of Psithyrus. These two genera were separated on the shape of the mandibles. An attempt was made to separate the species of Bombus (Bremus) on the characters of the mesothoracical spiracles and the pleural

Soil‐derived, gut‐dominant generalist bacteria shape the fitness of folivorous larvae
Whether Lepidoptera harbor a conserved core gut microbiome has long remained contentious. Through large‐scale microbiome profiling of folivorous larvae, their host plants, and associated soils across three climatically distinct regions of China, we identify two soil‐derived generalist bacteria, Ralstonia insidiosa and Delftia sp., that colonize 97.92 ...
