Aphids are valuable models for studying the functional diversity of bacterial symbiosis in insects. In addition to their ancestral obligate nutritional symbiont Buchnera aphidicola, these insects can host a myriad of so-called facultative s...
Advanced maternal age has negative multigenerational impacts during Drosophila melanogaster embryogenesis [0.03%]
果蝇胚胎发育中母亲的高龄对后代有负影响多代延续的现象研究

Increasing maternal age is commonly accompanied by decreased fitness in offspring. In Drosophila melanogaster, maternal senescence negatively affects multiple facets of offspring phenotype and fitness. These maternal effects are particularl...
Field bands of marching locust juveniles show carbohydrate, not protein, limitation [0.03%]
迁飞若虫的群体展示的是碳水化合物而不是蛋白质的限制作用

Arianne J Cease et al.
Locusts are grasshoppers that migrate en masse and devastate food security, yet little is known about the nutritional needs of marching bands in nature. While it has been hypothesized that protein limitation promotes locust marching behavio...
Contrasting effects of an extended fall period and winter heatwaves on the overwintering fitness of diapausing disease vector, Aedes albopictus [0.03%]

Climate change is expected to dramatically alter autumnal and winter conditions in many temperate regions. However, limited data is available to accurately predict how these changes will impact species' overwinter survival and post-winter f...
Characterization of the swede midge, Contarinia nasturtii, first instar larval salivary gland transcriptome [0.03%]
瑞典果蝇，Contarinia nasturtii，一龄幼虫唾腺转录组的特征分析
Boyd A Mori,Cathy Coutu,Martin A Erlandson et al.
Boyd A Mori et al.
Proteins in saliva of gall-forming insect larvae govern insect-host plant interactions. Contarinia nasturtii, the swede midge, is a pest of brassicaceous vegetables (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli) and canola. We examined the salivary gland...
Invasive alien insects represent a clear but variable threat to biodiversity [0.03%]
入侵的外来昆虫对生物多样性构成明确但可变的威胁

Invasive alien insects are an important yet understudied component of the general threat that biological invasions pose to biodiversity. We quantified the breadth and level of this threat by performing environmental impact assessments using...
Noxious chemical discrimination by Tribolium castaneum TRPA1 channel in the HEK293 cell expression system [0.03%]
家蚕豆象瞬时受体电位阳离子通道A1(TRPA1)的毒力化合物识别及构效关系研究

Kenji Shimomura et al.
Nociception is the sensory perception of noxious chemical stimuli. Repellent behavior to avoid noxious stimuli is indispensable for survival, and this mechanism has been evolutionarily conserved across a wide range of species, from mammals ...
Structure of an antennally-expressed carboxylesterase suggests lepidopteran odorant degrading enzymes are broadly tuned [0.03%]
antennal表达的羧酸酯酶结构表明鳞翅目odorant分解酶具有广泛的调节功能

Jacob A Corcoran et al.
Insects rely on the detection of chemical cues present in the environment to guide their foraging and reproductive behaviour. As such, insects have evolved a sophisticated chemical processing system in their antennae comprised of several ty...
Still standing: The heat protection delivered by a facultative symbiont to its aphid host is resilient to repeated thermal stress [0.03%]
持久的庇护：兼性共生菌对蚜虫宿主提供的高温保护在反复热应激下依然有效

Kévin Tougeron et al.
Insects have evolved diverse strategies to resist extreme high temperatures (EHT). The adaptive value of such strategies has to be evaluated when organisms experience multiple EHT events during their lifetime, as predicted in a changing cli...
Flight-reproduction trade-offs are weak in a field cage experiment across multiple Drosophila species [0.03%]
飞虫繁殖权衡在多个果蝇物种的田间笼实验中较弱
Liana I De Araujo,Minette Karsten,John S Terblanche
Liana I De Araujo
Flight-reproduction trade-offs, such that more mobile individuals sacrifice reproductive output (e.g., fecundity) or incur fitness costs, are well-studied in a handful of wing-dimorphic model systems. However, these trade-offs have not been...
