Insects are continuously exposed to a vibroscape, namely the array of substrate-borne vibrations produced by conspecifics, heterospecifics, or abiotic sources, which influences their interaction with their surroundings. However, the extent ...
Biodegradation of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) microplastics in superworms (Zophobas atratus larvae): High biodegradation rate with limited mineralization and elevation of oxidative stress [0.03%]
超级虫(Zophobas atratus幼虫)中聚氯乙烯(PVC)微塑料的生物降解：高生物降解率，有限的矿化作用以及氧化应激的升高
Qianfeng Xu,Yazhou Xu,Wenjun Yin et al.
Qianfeng Xu et al.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been an environmental concern due to its persistence and potential toxicity of degraded chlorinated intermediates and plasticizers. Although previous evidence indicates that plastivorous mealworms (Tenebrio moli...
The activation of hormone-sensitive lipase via MAPK phosphorylation is required for PBAN-mediated sex pheromone biosynthesis in Bombyx mori [0.03%]
