Zhixiong Zhou et al.
Bursicon is indispensable for wing expansion in Bactrocera dorsalis, acting through PKA-mediated regulation of the wing-development gene Bdhh. Although cuticular proteins are recognized as critical regulators of insect wing development, it ...
Brood parasitism reduces but does not prevent Bombus terrestris reproductive success [0.03%]
寄生行为抑制但并未阻止Bombus terrestris繁殖成功

Cuckoo bumblebees are obligate brood parasites that must invade a colony of their host bumblebee species in order to reproduce. As the host queen is typically killed in the colony invasion process, cuckoo bumblebees are thought to severely ...
Cd exposure-triggered toxicity in parasitic offspring of Chouioia cunea through SLC24A3/SLC24A4-apoptosis/oxidative damage signaling pathway [0.03%]

The tortoise scale insect (Toumeyella parvicornis) is rapidly spreading in stone pine (Pinus pinea) forests and urban parks of Mediterranean Europe. Its current distribution and potential spread is concerning as, so far, it already includes...
Taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a Mediterranean coastal area: implications for dune conservation in a long-term ecological research eLTER site [0.03%]
地中海沿海地区夜蛾科无脊椎动物的分类和功能多样性：长期生态研究生态系统陆地濒危物种栖息地网络(ELTER)站点沙丘保护的意义

Micaela Del Valle Rasino et al.
Coastal dunes are highly vulnerable ecosystems that require adequate bioindicators for effective biodiversity monitoring. Although moths are recognized as good bioindicators in many contexts, their diversity patterns in these habitats remai...
Deciphering the regulatory landscape of venom gene expression in a parasitoid wasp at single-cell resolution [0.03%]
单细胞分辨率下解码寄生黄蜂毒液基因表达的调控景观
Shasha Wang,Yi Yang,Shuxing Lao et al.
Shasha Wang et al.
The venom gland is a remarkable organ of the parasitoid wasps, which produces venom that controls the host and is important for the survival and reproduction of the parasitoid. But little is known about how venom gland cells precisely regul...

Insects touch their proximal environment with their tarsi. The immediate contact with xenobiotics occurs with the tarsal cuticle surface that is covered with cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). In this work, we tested the hypothesis that xenobio...
Winning promotes both perceived and actual fighting ability in dominance contests among bumblebee workers [0.03%]
胜利能促进蜂虎工蜂在支配竞争中的表现能力和实际战斗力

褐飞虱保幼激素生物合成关键酶基因LsFAMeT和LsJHAMT的鉴定及功能分析
Yan Guo,Bing-Bing Shi,Xue-Qi Zhang et al.
Yan Guo et al.
Farnesoic acid O-methyltransferase (FAMeT) and juvenile hormone acid O-methyltransferase (JHAMT) are key enzymes in the isoprene branch pathway, a specialized downstream biosynthetic pathway for juvenile hormone (JH). Both enzymes play cruc...
Odorant and gustatory receptors synergistically modulate feeding behaviors that underlie food preference and consumption in the silkworm [0.03%]
家蚕食物偏爱和取食行为的化学感受机制研究取得进展
