Identification and Expression Patterns of Three Vitellogenin Genes and Their Roles in Reproduction of the Alligatorweed Flea Beetle Agasicles hygrophila (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The alligatorweed flea beetle Agasicles hygrophila is an insect used for biological control of the aquatic weed Alternanthera philoxeroides (alligatorweed).

Implications of Maternal Toxicant Effects on Size‐Dependent Fisheries' Management: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 895-911, July 2026.
Larger, older fish transfer higher mercury and PCB concentrations to their eggs, significantly reducing offspring hatching success, survival and growth rates in contaminated aquatic ecosystems. These findings suggest that the reproductive benefits of big old fat fecund female fish may be compromised by maternal toxicant transfer in polluted waters ...

Detection of vitellogenin in a subpopulation of sea urchin coelomocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Sea urchin vitellogenin is a high molecular weight glycoprotein, which is the precursor of the major yolk protein present in the unfertilized egg. Vitellogenin processing into the major yolk protein and its further enzymatic cleavage during sea urchin ...

Cytochrome P450 1a (CYP1A)‐Knockout Javanese Medaka Fish Exhibit Diabetic Traits and Reduced Reproductive Capacity

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 12, 30 June 2026.
Analyses of cytochrome P450 1a (CYP1A)‐knockout (KO) Javanese medaka (Oryzias javanicus) revealed that CYP1A is involved in glucose regulation and reproduction. In the KO fish, significant increases in hepatic transcripts of insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin genes, as well as elevated blood glucose, liver mass, and liver triglyceride levels ...

The vitellogenin gene family of Aedes aegypti

open access: yes, 1987
We have been interested in identifying genes that play a role in reproduction of the mosquito Aedes aegypti. Our interests are currently focused on the vitellogenin genes which in the mosquito are expressed only in the fat body in response to the insect ...

Efficient Gene Expression System in Medaka Embryos Enables Functional Characterization of nt5c1a Paralogs Involved in Inosine Monophosphate Metabolism

open access: yesgenesis, Volume 64, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Optimizing transient expression systems in fish embryos is crucial for rapid gene function analysis. Here, we established an efficient system in medaka (Oryzias latipes) embryos by evaluating nucleic acid type and injection site. Our results revealed that injecting the elongation factor 1αA (ef1αA) promoter‐driven plasmid into the yolk yielded

Phylogeny and multiple sequence alignment of lepidopteran vitellogenin.

open access: yes, 2023
(A) Phylogenetic tree of vitellogenin homologs in lepidoptera insects. A neighbor-joining tree was constructed using MEGA 5 software [73]. Amino acid sequences were obtained from the UniProt database (https://www.uniprot.org).

Histochemical characteristics of the vitellogenic oocytes of the bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus L.

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2002
 Very little information is available with respect to dynamic aspects of oocyte development and to yolk composition of tuna species. Since histological approaches can offer considerable information about the ovarian development of fish, and because ...

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies
