Effect of altered photoperiodism (altered intensity and day length) on neuroendocrine function and ovarian maturation in an ocypod crab, Ocypoda macrocera [PDF]
In marine invertebrates, light forms a significant external signal (' Zeitgeber', Aschoff, 1960) to control various reproductive activities (Segal, 1970).

Photoperiodic diapause under the control of circadian clock genes in an insect [PDF]
Background Most organisms have evolved a circadian clock in order to anticipate daily environmental changes and many of these organisms are also capable of sophisticated measurement of daylength (photoperiodism) that is used to regulate seasonal events ...

How farmers use agrobiodiversity to cope with climatic variability and community change [PDF]
Small scale farmers commonly use agrobiodiversity as a way to maintain the quality of their livelihood. Agrobiodiversity practices are more frequent in tropical low input agriculture but are also present in Europe.

Temperate insects generally use day length as a reliable cue for long-term seasonal changes in their environment. Significant variation in photoperiodism between and within populations is thought to be associated with genetic variation resulting from ...
