Louse (Insecta: Phthiraptera) mitochondrial 12S rRNA secondary structure is highly variable [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2002
Lice are ectoparasitic insects hosted by birds and mammals. Mitochondrial 12S rRNA sequences obtained from lice show considerable length variation and are very difficult to align.

Diversity of lice and flea- and lice-borne pathogens in free-ranging dogs in Uzbekistan. [PDF]

open access: yesMed Vet Entomol
Lice (Trichodectes canis, Linognathus africanus and Bovicola bovis) and fleas were collected from dogs across five regions of Uzbekistan and subjected to molecular analysis. Molecular screening detected Dipylidium caninum and Bartonella spp. in fleas, while Rickettsia spp. were identified in both fleas and lice.

Birds in arid regions have depauperate louse communities: Climate change implications? [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Environmental factors are known to affect the distribution of free‐living organisms. We surveyed parasitic lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) of 500 birds and found that parasite diversity is also influenced by the environment. We found that birds in arid Utah had substantially lower louse diversity (prevalence, abundance, and richness) than birds in humid ...

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach. [PDF]

open access: yesInsect Mol Biol
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

The use of RNA interference for the management of arthropod pests in livestock farms L'uso di RNA interferente per il controllo degli artropodi infestanti negli allevamenti

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 631-646, December 2023., 2023
Problems caused by arthropod pests to livestock production are increasing due to new legal restrictions on pesticide use, insurgence of resistance to insecticides in pest populations and climate change. RNA interference (RNAi) is a novel approach to pest control based on specific gene silencing in target species, characterised by a selective action ...

The microbiota of Idaea inquinata developing on dry herbs

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 171, Issue 10, Page 796-805, October 2023., 2023
The role of diet in influencing the Idaea inquinata (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)‐associated bacterial community and the impact on its development were investigated by rearing this species on three diets: Matricaria chamomilla flowers, Angelica archangelica roots, and artificial diet.
