Developmental photoperiodic exposure (photoacclimation) from egg to adult emergence alters thermal tolerance in Ceratitis capitata. Flies reared under contrasting photoperiods (0:24, 8:16, 14:10, and 24:0 L:D) showed significant shifts in both CTmin and CTmax, whereas adult‐only photoacclimation affected CTmax but not CTmin.

The circadian clock and melatonin coordinate homeostasis in many animals, yet their influence on reproduction and neoblast proliferation has only been shown in triclads. This study demonstrates that the early‐branching catenulid Stenostomum virginianum contains photoreceptive refractile bodies, synthesizes endogenous melatonin, and that exogenous ...

Abstract Introduction Seagrass restoration efforts are being implemented globally to accelerate the slow natural recolonization success. Among the various existing methods, seed‐based approaches offer the greatest scalability for species like Zostera marina, yet these methods remain undeveloped for a number of sub‐tidal systems like the Baltic Sea ...

Activation of membrane guanylate cyclase by an invertebrate peptide hormone
Peptide hormones can stimulate cyclic GMP synthesis through either of two general mechanisms: some peptides activate the cytoplasmic form of guanylate cyclase via a coupling factor called EDRF (endothelium-derived relaxation factor), while others activate the membrane form by interacting directly with an extracellular binding domain of the cyclase ...

Blue plaque review series: Thomas Graham Brown: Before his time
Abstract Thomas Graham Brown made a seminal discovery, published in 1911 while he was a Carnegie Fellow in the University of Liverpool laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Charles S. Sherrington. Working in cats, he showed that rhythmic ‘voluntary’ behaviour, such as stepping and, by inference, walking, does not result from a chain of reflex events, but ...
