Hormones regulate development, as well as many vital processes in the daily life of an
animal. Many of these hormones are peptides that act at a higher hierarchical level in the …

Insects are the largest group of animals. They are capable of surviving in virtually all
environments from arid deserts to the freezing permafrost of polar regions. This success is …

Neuropeptides are crucial in regulation of a rich variety of developmental, physiological, and
behavioral functions throughout the life cycle of insects. Using an integrated approach of …

Abstract The G Protein-Coupled Receptor (GPCR) superfamily is the largest and most
diverse transmembrane receptor family, playing crucial roles in regulating various …

The Hemiptera comprise the most species-rich order of the hemimetabolous insects.
Members of a number of superfamilies, most notably especially the more basal ones such as …

Simple Summary Neuropeptides regulate most insect biological functions. One such group
of peptides, the pyrokinins (PKs), are distinguished by a C-terminal FXPRLamide. While …

MicroRNA plays a crucial role in post‐transcriptional gene regulation and has recently
emerged as a factor linked to aging, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain …

Neuropeptides and their receptors are involved in the regulation and coordination of various
physiological processes in insects. Although various neuropeptides have been identified …

Simple Summary Temperature is an important factor affecting all physiological activities of
ectotherms. Invasive whiteflies can quickly adapt to new environments probably regulated …

CAPA neuropeptides regulate the diuresis/antidiuresis process in insects by activating
specific cognate receptor, CAPAr. In this study, we characterized the CAPAr gene …
