Whilst acoustic communication forms an integral component of the mating behavior of many
insect species, it is particularly crucial for disease-transmitting mosquitoes; swarming males …

The Varroa destructor mite is a devastating parasite of Apis mellifera honeybees. They can
cause colonies to collapse by spreading viruses and feeding on the fat reserves of adults …

Oogenesis is a complex developmental process that involves spatiotemporally regulated
coordination between the germline and supporting, somatic cell populations. This process …

The monoamines octopamine and tyramine, which are the invertebrate counterparts of
epinephrine and norepinephrine, transmit their action through sets of G protein-coupled …

The biogenic monoamine octopamine (OA) is a crucial regulator of invertebrate physiology
and behavior. Since its discovery in the 1950s in octopus salivary glands, OA has been …

In insects, the biogenic amines octopamine (OA) and tyramine (TA) are involved in
controlling several physiological and behavioural processes. OA and TA act as …

The modulation of an animal's behavior through external sensory stimuli, previous
experience and its internal state is crucial to survive in a constantly changing environment …

Culex pipiens demonstrates robust circadian rhythms in adult eclosion, flight activity, mating,
and development. These rhythmic patterns are believed to be controlled by the endogenous …

Although ecdysteroid signaling regulates multiple steps in oogenesis, it is not known
whether it regulates Drosophila ovulation, a process involving a matrix metalloproteinase …
