InsectsPardosa pseudoannulata plays an important role in the biological control of insect pests. The inclusion of yeast in the culture medium is very important for the growth, development, and reproduction of Drosophila melanogaster, but there have been few ...

Coevolution of Drosophila melanogaster mtDNA and Wolbachia genotypes.
PLoS ONE, 2013 Maternally inherited microorganisms can influence the mtDNA pattern of variation in hosts. This influence is driven by selection among symbionts and can cause the frequency of mitochondrial variants in the population to eventually increase or decrease ...

Scientific Reports, 2017 Pesticides are used extensively in food production to maximize crop yields. However, neonicotinoid insecticides exert unintentional toxicity to honey bees (Apis mellifera) that may partially be associated with massive population declines referred to as ...

A holidic medium for Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Nature Methods, 2013 A critical requirement for research using model organisms is a well-defined and consistent diet. There is currently no complete chemically defined (holidic) diet available for Drosophila melanogaster. We describe a holidic medium that is equal in performance to an oligidic diet optimized for adult fecundity and lifespan.

Contrasting patterns of transposable element insertions in Drosophila heat-shock promoters. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The proximal promoter regions of heat-shock genes harbor a remarkable number of P transposable element (TE) insertions relative to both positive and negative control proximal promoter regions in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

The effects of recombination rate on the distribution and abundance of transposable elements [PDF]
, 2008 Transposable elements (TEs) often accumulate in regions of the genome with suppressed recombination. But it is unclear whether this pattern reflects a reduction in the efficacy of selection against deleterious insertions or a relaxation of ectopic ...

On the origin of the P-element invasion in Drosophila simulans
Mobile DNAThe horizontal transfer (HT) of the P-element is one of the best documented cases of the HT of a transposable element. The P-element invaded natural D. melanogaster populations between 1950 and 1980 following its HT from Drosophila willistoni, a species ...

Complex evolutionary dynamics of massively expanded chemosensory receptor families in an extreme generalist chelicerate herbivore [PDF]
, 2016 While mechanisms to detoxify plant produced, anti-herbivore compounds have been associated with plant host use by herbivores, less is known about the role of chemosensory perception in their life histories.

Clusters of microRNAs emerge by new hairpins in existing transcripts [PDF]
, 2013 Genetic linkage may result in the expression of multiple products from a polycistronic transcript, under the control of a single promoter. In animals, protein-coding polycistronic transcripts are rare.
