Molecular mechanisms of sex determination in Lepidoptera: current status and perspectives
Insect Science, EarlyView.The genetic basis of sex determination in Lepidoptera was discovered in 2014 in the silkworm Bombyx mori. In this model species, the W chromosome‐derived small piRNA called Fem piRNA downregulates the expression of a Z‐linked gene, Masculinizer (Masc), which leads to the default female‐specific splicing of the doublesex gene (dsxF) and thus to female ...

A Novel Sampling Protocol for Fruit‐Feeding Butterflies in Grasslands and Open Habitats
Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.This study proposed a novel sampling protocol for fruit‐feeding butterflies in grasslands and open areas in the subtropical region. The new method involves the use of Van Someren‐Rydon bait traps placed on specific supports closer to the ground, aiming to capture the true diversity of butterflies in these habitats.
