Serotonin stimulates Echinococcus multilocularis larval development [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundSerotonin is a phylogenetically ancient molecule that is widely distributed in most metazoans, including flatworms. In addition to its role as a neurotransmitter, serotonin acts as a morphogen and regulates developmental processes. Although several studies have focused on the serotonergic nervous system in parasitic flatworms, little ...

Developing retinotectal projection in larval goldfish [PDF]
AbstractThe retinotectal projection in larval goldfish was studied with the aid of anterograde filling of optic fibers with HRP applied to the retina. The results show that optic fibers have already reached the tectum and begun to form terminal arbors in newly hatched fish.

Head Capsule Widths as an Indicator of the Larval Instar of Codling Moth (Lepidoptera: Olethreutidae) [PDF]
Head capsule width was a reliable indicator of larval instar in a strain of Michigan codling moths, Cydia pomonella. Head capsules were 0.33, 0.50, 0.82, 1.18 and 1.55 mm in width from first to fifth instar respectively.

The Enigmatic Canal-Associated Neurons Regulate Caenorhabditis elegans Larval Development Through a cAMP Signaling Pathway. [PDF]
Caenorhabditis elegans larval development requires the function of the two Canal-Associated Neurons (CANs): killing the CANs by laser microsurgery or disrupting their development by mutating the gene ceh-10 results in early larval arrest. How these cells

Experimental Control and Characterization of Autophagy in Drosophila [PDF]
Insects such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which fundamentally reorganize their body plan during metamorphosis, make extensive use of autophagy for their normal development and physiology.

Temporal scaling in C. elegans larval development. [PDF]
Significance An enduring mystery of development is how its timing is controlled, particularly for development after birth, where timing is highly flexible and depends on environmental conditions, such as food availability and diet.
