Genetic modification of the ant Lasius niger using CRISPR‐Cas9 technology
We successfully modified the cinnabar gene in the black garden ant (Lasius niger) resulting in an abnormal eye colour in mutated adults. We provide a detailed protocol to collect ant eggs, inject them with CRISPR‐Cas9 construct, rear the eggs to adults and verify mutants by sequencing the target gene.

Abundance of spiders and species richness increased from the ground level to the canopy in oak forests. Spiders with some specific ecological traits in the sample (such as hunting strategy, dispersal ability, occurrence and light requirements) are specifically distributed in the vertical direction.

The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is an important pest of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in Europe. The objective of the present study was to gain a better understanding of host plant related factors affecting its oviposition behaviour with the aim of developing new sustainable control strategies.

We found that reducing insulin signalling in adult worms slows down their reproductive ageing and extends their lifespan without negative side effects. Moreover, combining it with IF further enhances these benefits. These interventions likely work by regulating genes linked to biosynthesis and immunity, showing how optimising gene expression can delay ...

Dietary Zinc Limitation Dictates Lifespan and Reproduction Trade‐Offs of Drosophila Mothers
Dietary metal ions significantly influence the lifespan and reproduction of Drosophila females. In this study, we show that not adding any of the metal ions to the diet adversely affects reproduction and lifespan. By contrast, food with no added Zn negatively impacts reproduction but not maternal lifespan, suggesting that female flies stop producing ...
