The molecular mechanisms of defensive‐grade organic acid biosynthesis in ground beetles
Formic acid and methacrylic acid are the primary defensive chemicals in the pygidial gland secretions of Platynus angustatus and Pterostichus moestus, respectively. Comparative transcriptomics suggests the folate cycle and valine catabolism may be involved in the biosynthesis of formic acid and methacrylic acid, respectively.

Tomato spotted wilt virus modulated the abundance of gut proteins in larval thrips, most notably manifested as a predominant down‐regulation in first instar larvae. Gut‐expressed protein and cognate transcript abundance were moderately correlated across the tissue system; however, the virus effect varied widely at transcriptional and translational ...

Hypotheses in light detection by vertebrate ancient opsin in the bird brain
Abstract Extra‐retinal photoreception is common across fish and avian species. In birds, the hypothalamus contains non‐visual photoreceptors that detect light and regulate multiple endocrine systems. To date, light‐dependent control of seasonal reproduction is one of the most well‐studied systems that require deep brain photoreception.
