Molecular characterization and immune association of Fas‐associated death domain protein (FADD) in Tenebrio molitor

Entomological Research, Volume 54, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Fas‐associated death domain protein (FADD) is an apoptotic adapter molecule that recruits caspases and facilitates the formation of death‐inducing signaling complexes in mammals. In lower animals, FADD forms a complex with immune deficiency and death‐related ced‐3/Nedd2‐like caspase to elicit antimicrobial responses.

Land-use simplification weakens the association between terrestrial producer and consumer diversity in Europe [PDF]

, 2017
Land-use change is one of the primary drivers of species loss, yet little is known about its effect on other components of biodiversity that may be at risk, such as local associations between trophic levels.

Examining elevation and thermoregulatory trait differences of endemic tropical swallowtail butterflies to assess their vulnerability to climate change

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 788-799, September 2024.
We used museum specimens to examine the vulnerability of endemic swallowtail butterflies of Sulawesi (Indonesia) to climate change by quantifying inter‐specific variation in elevation, size and melanism. Endemics had paler wings but were similar to non‐endemics in size and elevation of collection.

Extremes of snow and temperature affect patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation in the alpine butterfly Parnassius smintheus

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 18, September 2024.
Abstract Weather is an important short‐term, local driver of population size and dispersal, which in turn contribute to patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation within species. Climate change is leading to greater weather variability and more frequent extreme weather events.

Czech Republic butterfly barcoding reveals that distribution of genetic lineages depends on species traits

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 8, Page 1575-1586, August 2024.
Abstract Aim The distribution of within‐species lineages has been affected by Quaternary climate changes, and population differentiation has been influenced by species life history traits. We investigated whether the distribution of individual mitochondrial genetic lineages reflects the constituent species' traits.

Climate change effects on habitat suitability of Parnassius apollo throughout the Quarternary glacial cycles

, 2022
1. Alpine grasslands above the treeline are severely threatened by climate change, mainly due to forest expansion driven by warmer conditions. Analogous lowland grasslands experience severe reductions due to land-use abandonment and forest encroachment.

The complete mitochondrial genomes of two ghost moths, Thitarodes renzhiensis and Thitarodes yunnanensis: the ancestral gene arrangement in Lepidoptera [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Lepidoptera encompasses more than 160,000 described species that have been classified into 45–48 superfamilies. The previously determined Lepidoptera mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are limited to six superfamilies of the lineage Ditrysia.
