The feeding ecology of some zooplankters that are important prey items of larval fish [PDF]
, 1984 Diets of 76 species of fish larvae from most oceans of the world were inventoried on the basis of information in 40 published studies. Although certaln geographlc, size- and taxon-specific patterns were apparent, certain zooplankton taxa appeared in the ...

Role of Non-Residential Larval Habitats in Aedes Spatiotemporal Egg Production
LifeAedes mosquitoes play a pivotal role as vectors of several arboviral diseases, presenting significant public health challenges worldwide. Their invasive success in tropical regions has raised substantial medical concerns. In Guatemala, Aedes mosquitoes are widely distributed and are the primary vectors of the dengue virus.

Development and silk production by silkworm larvae after topical application of methoprene
Scientia Agricola, 2002 Juvenile hormone analogues have been tested as insect growth regulators in silkworm (Bombyx mori), seeking an increment of silk production. These chemical products, when applied in small or moderate rates, promote the extension of the last larval instar.

A Review of Spinosad as a Natural Product for Larval Mosquito Control
Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2010 The effectiveness of spinosad for larval mosquito control is summarized based on available published literature and some heretofore unpublished studies. Spinosad is highly active against larvae of all mosquito species tested thus far. It is effective at similar dosages for all larval mosquito instars, with peak cumulative mortality occurring at 72 h ...

Guidelines for the Anti‐Obesity Assays of Food Bioactives in Caenorhabditis elegans
AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.This Guideline uses Caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism to systematically explain and summarize the research strategies and experimental methods for the anti‐obesity effects of food bioactives. ABSTRACT The obesity has become a global public health problem and is closely related to a variety of chronic diseases.

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events
