Expression of De Novo Open Reading Frames in Natural Populations of Drosophila melanogaster

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
We show that newly‐evolved, expressed open reading frames (neORFs) identified in a set of inbred Drosophila melanogaster lines are also expressed in multiple tissues and developmental stages of pooled population samples from Europe and Africa, although differential expression of neORFs between populations is often tissue‐ or stage‐specific.

Aedes aegypti Pupae are Highly Susceptible to Infection by Metarhizium anisopliae Blastospores

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019
The mosquito Aedes aegypti vectors arboviruses such as urban yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and Zika. Reducing the vector population is still the most effective method to decrease the spread of arboviruses. Fungi are the main natural disease agents of

De Novo Whole Genome Assemblies of Unusual Case‐Making Caddisflies (Trichoptera) Highlight Genomic Convergence in the Composition of the Major Silk Gene (h‐fibroin)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
The major silk gene, h‐fibroin, was annotated in high‐quality genomes of two unusual case‐making Trichoptera. H‐Fibroin of Limnocentropus insolitus shows a similar amino acid composition to other case‐making species, while the amino acid composition of h‐fibroin of Phryganopsyche brunnea resembles that of retreat‐making species.

THE FIRST FOSSIL RECORD OF A MANTIS LACEWING PUPA, AND A REVIEW OF PUPAE IN MANTISPIDAE AND THEIR EVOLUTIONARY SIGNIFICANCE

RIVISTA ITALIANA DI PALEONTOLOGIA E STRATIGRAFIA, 2023
During ontogenetic development, insects can undergo quite drastic changes (metamorphosis) until the adult stage is reached. A substantial part of this development in one group of Insecta, Holometabola, takes place during the pupa stage. Despite the pupa being recognised as an important phase, rather few depictions of pupae exist in the literature.

ATAC‐seq in Emerging Model Organisms: Challenges and Strategies

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Principle of ATAC‐seq (left), overview of arthropod species with published ATAC‐seq data (middle), summary of experimental design (right). ABSTRACT The Assay for Transposase‐Accessible Chromatin with sequencing (ATAC‐seq) is a versatile and widely utilized method for identifying potential regulatory regions, such as promoters and enhancers, within a ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Recently Evolved, Stage‐Specific Genes Are Enriched at Life‐Stage Transitions in Flies

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
We discovered that 20%–30% of protein‐coding genes in Drosophila melanogaster and Aedes aegypti are only expressed during specific stages of development. Surprisingly, many of these stage‐specific genes are newly evolved, unique to flies and mosquitoes, shedding light on how insect development has evolved over time.

Insects as sustainable source of feed for poultry

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Production of animal feed in an environmentally effective way is the key point for the development of sustainable agriculture. The livestock farming industry is increasing globally to meet the demand for animal protein, resulting in higher food–feed competition while rationing animal diets. In addition, it creates increased pressure on natural
