Evolution of alternative reproductive systems in Bacillus stick insects
bioRxivReproduction is a key feature of all organisms, yet the way in which it is achieved varies greatly across the tree of life. One striking example of this variation is the stick insect genus Bacillus, in which five different reproductive modes have been ...

Keeping stick insects in the kindergarten [PDF]
, 2018 Predmet ovog rada je ukazati djeci te njihovim roditeljima važnost uvođenja insektarija u dječje vrtiće. Insektarij je domišljato rješenje kojim bi se djeca naviknula na prisutstvo minijaturnih životinja, kukaca.

Nature, 1936 SINCE 1910, we have bred a continuous supply of the common stick insect (Carausius). These are lodged in a glass rectangular case 18½ in. × 9 in. × 15½ in. fitted with a movable glass front. Two glass vases holding ivy leaves in water furnish food and moisture for the insects.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Complementary effect of attachment devices in stick insects (Phasmatodea)
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019 Stick insects are well adapted in their locomotion to various surfaces and topographies of natural substrates. Single pad measurements characterised the pretarsal arolia of these insects as shear-sensitive adhesive pads and the tarsal euplantulae as load-

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A self‐sustaining solar photoelectrochemical cell (SS‐PEC) is developed to recover uranium from aqueous UO22+ with concurrent organic oxidation and electricity production. The monolithical photoanode directly captures electrons from organic compounds, leading to the oxidation of organic compounds and the decomposition of uranium‐organic complexes ...

Leg Coordination during Walking in Insects [PDF]
, 2013 Locomotion depends on constant adaptation to different requirements of the environment. An appropriate temporal and spatial coordination of multiple body parts is necessary to achieve a stable and adapted behavior.
