Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Genome-Wide Screening and Functional Analysis Reveal That the Specific microRNA nlu-miR-173 Regulates Molting by Targeting Ftz-F1 in Nilaparvata lugens

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: Molting is a crucial physiological behavior during arthropod growth. In the past few years, molting as well as chitin biosynthesis triggered by molting, is subject to regulation by miRNAs.

Whole-body transcriptome analysis provides insights into the cascade of sequential expression events involved in growth, immunity, and metabolism during the molting cycle in Scylla paramamosain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The molecular mechanisms underlying the dynamic process of crab molting are still poorly understood at the individual level. We investigated global expression changes in the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, at the transcriptome level and revealed a cascade

Migration speed, timing, and long‐term shifts in age structure in North American passerines during fall migration

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Migration is challenging for birds, especially juveniles, who experience high mortality rates during migration. The challenge is exacerbated in the Anthropocene, contributing to widespread population declines. Conservation efforts focused on increasing juvenile survival could bolster population recovery.

Biological properties and roles of a Trichinella spiralis inorganic pyrophosphatase in molting and developmental process of intestinal larval stages

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2021
Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) participates in energy cycle and plays a vital role in hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) into inorganic phosphate (Pi).

Nutritional, phytochemical, and potential health benefits of Monostroma spp.: A systematic review

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Monostroma spp., belonging to the green seaweed, has been known to be health‐promoting food items as prophylactic agents worldwide. It has shown wide arrays of bioactivities for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. A total of 47 articles were selected to review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and ...
