Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

Progressive Cellularization of Blastoderm and Extraembryonic Tissue Formation in the Ant Camponotus floridanus

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 5, Page 411-421, July 2026.
Illustration of the process of cellularization in Camponotus floridanus (top row) compared to Drosophila melanogaster (bottom row). Progressive direct formation of differentiating blastoderm mode is depicted using hexagons that represent energids (without borders) and cells (with borders). Colors of nuclei represent different cell types.

Multi‐Omics Analyses Elucidate the Venom Components of the Wasp Vespa mandarinia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
The wasp Vespa mandarinia was widely reared in Yunnan province. The venom was responsible for their aggressive behavior. Tweety proteases, hyaluronidase, venom dipeptidyl peptidase 4, and phospholipase A1 and A2 isozyme were identified. In addition, organic heterocyclic compounds, organic acids, and derivatives were found.

Latitudinal differences in the circadian system of Nasonia vitripennis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Daily and seasonal environmental changes are initiated by gradual variation of temperature and day length, following different patterns across a latitudinal cline. These recurring events are predictable by an adaptive circadian clock. The circadian clock times molecular, physiological and behavioural processes in near all organism on a daily and annual

Improving Biological Control Outcomes: A New Zealand Perspective

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 3, June 2026.
This short communication outlines the imperative for advances in classical biological control, often based on molecular technologies, to accentuate the efficacy of impact while being cognisant of the need for biological control safety.

The quantitative genetic basis of polyandry in the parasitoid wasp, Nasonia vitripennis [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2006
Understanding the evolution of female multiple mating (polyandry) is crucial for understanding sexual selection and sexual conflict. Despite this interest, little is known about its genetic basis or whether genetics influences the evolutionary origin or maintenance of polyandry.

Sex Determination in Sponges

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sex determination in Porifera remains one of the least understood aspects of early metazoan biology despite the group's key phylogenetic position. Sponges display exceptional diversity in sexual systems—ranging from stable gonochorism to sequential hermaphroditism and sex reversal—yet lack morphological dimorphism and any discrete gonadal ...
