Thermogenesis‐derived spatiotemporal microclimates guide pollinator movement to ensure pollination

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Alocasia odora's microclimatic heterogeneity guides Colocasiomyia fly movement within its inflorescence. During the female stage, midday heat in the upper spadix pushes flies down to the cooler female zone. During the male stage, nocturnal warmth in the upper part pulls flies upward and spathe constriction closes the lower female chamber.

Spotted Wing Drosophila Control in the Laboratory, 2014

Arthropod Management Tests, 2015
Assail 30SG (acetamiprid) and AzaGuard (azadirachtin) were evaluated in the laboratory to assess their potential to control spotted wing drosophila (SWD). The products were tested separately with and without added sugar at rates indicated in the tables.

Drafting the calmodulation playbook: Emerging structural insights into transient receptor potential channel regulation by calmodulin

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Calmodulin (CaM) is a ubiquitous calcium (Ca2+) sensor that translates intracellular Ca2+ signals into modulation of hundreds of effector proteins including ion channels. CaM is increasingly recognized as a key regulator of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel family, yet the underlying ‘calmodulation playbook’ is only ...

Piperonyl Butoxide Efficacy as a Synergist of Zeta-Cypermethrin in Resistant Drosophila suzukii Populations

Agrochemicals
Spotted-wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii), an economically important invasive but widely distributed pest, has developed resistance to multiple insecticide classes, threatening its management in commercial soft fruit production.

hERG1 channels and potential therapeutics for long QT syndrome

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prolonged QT results from hERG1 channel dysfunction. (A) Physiological anterograde trafficking of hERG1 channels to the plasma membrane, leading to a normal electrocardiogram. (B) Prolonged QT results from the presence of fewer hERG1 channels on the plasma membrane due to decreased anterograde trafficking or reduced function due ...

Direct Pharmacological Activation of AMPK Extends Lifespan in Yeast, Worms and Flies

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key evolutionarily conserved sensor of energy homeostasis, which is implicated in metabolic health and disease, as well as in ageing. Here, we show that direct pharmacological activation of AMPK with the compound 991 in vivo extends lifespan in multiple model organisms: the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces ...

Wing spot in a tropical and a temperate drosophilid: C = C enrichment and conserved thermal response

BMC Ecology and Evolution
Wings are primarily used in flight but also play a role in mating behaviour in many insects. Drosophila species exhibit a variety of pigmentation patterns on their wings.

Protocol for genetic engineering in Drosophila suzukii using microinjection

STAR Protocols
Summary: The spotted wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii Matsumura) is recognized globally as a significant economic pest. Here, we present a protocol for genetic engineering in D. suzukii using microinjection.
