Transcriptional response in larvae of the generalist fruit fly Anastrepha obliqua feeding on three different tropical host plants

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 708-723, July 2025.
We investigated the molecular basis of host switching by the phytophagous West Indian fruit fly (A. obliqua). Third‐instar larvae showed differential gene expression according to host plants: red mombin, mango, and carambola. The main gene categories differentially expressed were digestion, detoxification, and gene regulators.

Biocultural Determinants of Mothers' Complementary Feeding Decisions in the Urban Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective Complementary feeding (CF) occurs during a critical period of infant growth and development with life‐long health implications. Despite international efforts, there remains significant variation in the adequacy of complementary diets across settings. In Brazil, there is marked variation in adherence to CF guidelines and infant growth
