Living in the Extreme: Fatty Acid Profiles and Their Specificity in Certain Tissues of Dominant Antarctic Silverfish, Pleuragramma antarcticum, from the Antarctic Sound (Southern Ocean) Collected during the Austral Summer

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
The fatty acid profile of seven different organs (brain, gills, heart, muscles, gonads, liver, and gall bladder) of the lipid-rich Antarctic silverfish, Pleuragramma antarcticum, from the Antarctic Sound was studied. Qualitative and quantitative analyses

Increasing 28 mitogenomes of Ephemeroptera, Odonata and Plecoptera support the Chiastomyaria hypothesis with three different outgroup combinations [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Background The phylogenetic relationships of Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) and Ephemeroptera (mayflies) remain unresolved. Different researchers have supported one of three hypotheses (Palaeoptera, Chiastomyaria or Metapterygota) based on data ...

Transcriptome Surveys in Silverfish Suggest a Multistep Origin of the Insect Odorant Receptor Gene Family

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
The insect odorant receptor (Or) gene family is among the largest multigene families in insect genomes, but its evolutionary origin and mode of expansion is still a matter of debate. We performed transcriptomic surveys of two wingless insect species, the
