Energy Consumption and Cold Hardiness of Diapausing Fall Webworm Pupae
Insects, 2022 Diapause and cold hardiness are essential components of winter survival for most insects in temperate zones. The fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea, overwinters in a pupal diapause.

Intra-Population Alteration on Voltinism of Asian Corn Borer in Response to Climate Warming
Biology, 2023 The Asian corn borer (ACB) Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenée) can occur in one to seven generations annually from cool (48°00′ N) to warm (18°10′ N) region of corn cultivation in China.

Prolonged diapause has sex-specific fertility and fitness costs [PDF]
Evolutionary Ecology, 2019 AbstractDiapause in seasonal environments allows insects to survive adverse seasons. However, individuals can sometimes enter a prolonged diapause for more than a year, and also skip favourable seasons, which can bring additional costs through e.g. loss of metabolic resources.

Microbiome, 2021 Background The life cycles of many insect species include an obligatory or facultative diapause stage with arrested development and low metabolic activity as an overwintering strategy.

Monitoring of adult emergence in the pine processionary moth between 1970 and 1984 in Mont Ventoux, France [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2021 The current climate change has marked impacts on the phenology of species, i.e., the timing of the various stages of their life cycle. Yet, to fully understand how phenological patterns are modified by the changes of temperature regimes, it is of prime ...

The small heat shock protein p26 aids development of encysting Artemia embryos, prevents spontaneous diapause termination and protects against stress. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Artemia franciscana embryos enter diapause as encysted gastrulae, a physiological state of metabolic dormancy and enhanced stress resistance. The objective of this study was to use RNAi to investigate the function of p26, an abundant, diapause-specific ...

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2023 To face recurrent temperature changes, tettigoniids inhabiting temperate climates overwinter as eggs in a diapause stage, being able to postpone embryogenesis for one or more years. To date, it is unclear if species living in warm regions, especially under the Mediterranean climate, could exhibit a diapause for a single year or enter a prolonged ...
