Transcriptome analysis in Ceratitis capitata to unveil genes involved in ageing-maturation process
The sterile insect technique (SIT) is widely used in integrated programmes against the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae). Information on the age distribution of insects, and more particularly, the knowledge of

Reproduction is associated with a tissue-dependent reduction of oxidative stress in eusocial female Damaraland mole-rats (Fukomys damarensis). [PDF]
This is the final version of the article. Available from Public Library of Science via the DOI in this record.Oxidative stress has been implicated as both a physiological cost of reproduction and a driving force on an animal's lifespan.

Vitellogenin—Homologs of mammalian apolipoproteins?
1. To determine if a relationship exists between vertebrate vitellogenins and mammalian plasma proteins the EMBL and NBRF computer databases were searched with two partial amino acid sequences from Xenopus laevis and Gallus gallus vitellogenin. 2.

Oogenesis and germinal bed morphology of the brown anole (A. sagrei)
Abstract Background The brown anole is a model species of the genus Anolis, a squamate (encompassing lizards and snakes) group widely studied in evolutionary, behavioral, and developmental biology. Full genome annotation, the establishment of gene editing techniques, and comprehensive description of reproductive tract morphology and embryogenesis in ...

The hookworm Ancylostoma ceylanicum intestinal transcriptome provides a platform for selecting drug and vaccine candidates [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The intestine of hookworms contains enzymes and proteins involved in the blood-feeding process of the parasite and is therefore a promising source of possible vaccine antigens.

Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...
