Comparative transcriptomics reveals different profiles between diflubenzuron‐resistant and ‐susceptible phenotypes of the mosquito Culex pipiens

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Comparative gene expression analysis between susceptible and diflubenzuron‐resistant individuals of the mosquito Culex pipiens revealed transcriptional changes of multiple genes associated with insecticide detoxification and cuticle synthesis. Abstract Background Chitin‐synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) represent a major tool in vector control. The intensive

Ecofriendly control of Drosophila suzukii via the photoinsecticide chlorophyllin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Drosophila suzukii can be killed by feeding with sodium‐magnesium‐chlorophyllin and photoactivation with sunlight or LEDs. Chlorophyllin supplementation does not result in food aversion. The moribundity increases with the light‐ and chlorophyllin dose as well as time.

Host condition and pathogen identity influence bacterial infection survival in the common eastern firefly, Photinus pyralis

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 90-101, February 2023., 2023
Fireflies in worse condition or collected later in the season had reduced survival relative to fireflies in better condition or collected earlier in the season. Serratia marcescens and Providencia rettgeri infections increased firefly mortality while Providencia sneebia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterococcus faecalis infections did not. Abstract The

Time-Varying Networks: Recovering Temporally Rewiring Genetic Networks During the Life Cycle of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
Due to the dynamic nature of biological systems, biological networks underlying temporal process such as the development of {\it Drosophila melanogaster} can exhibit significant topological changes to facilitate dynamic regulatory functions. Thus it is essential to develop methodologies that capture the temporal evolution of networks, which make it ...

The scaling of carbon dioxide release and respiratory water loss in flying fruit flies (Drosophila spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
By simultaneously measuring carbon dioxide release, water loss and flight force in several species of fruit flies in the genus Drosophila, we have investigated respiration and respiratory transpiration during elevated locomotor activity.

Microscope‐Free Analyte Detection Based on Fiber‐Optic Gliding Motility Assays

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Lab‐on‐fiber technology enables rapid, cost‐effective, and in situ analyte detection, addressing critical gaps in point‐of‐care diagnostics. This study presents a microscope‐free biosensor that utilizes motor‐protein‐driven microtubules on optical fibers to detect biomarkers like Creatine Kinase‐MB. By tracking gliding speed changes, it offers a novel,
