DOI: 10.1002/arch.21866
Abstract: In the world of complex smells in natural environment, feeding and mating represent two important olfactory-guided behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster (Diptera: Drosophilidae). Diet affects the chemoprofile composition of the individuals, which, indirectly, may significantly affect… read more here.

Conservation and divergence of the G-interfaces of Drosophila melanogaster septins.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Cytoskeleton"
DOI: 10.1002/cm.21740
Abstract: Septins possess a conserved guanine nucleotide-binding (G) domain that participates in the stabilization of organized hetero-oligomeric complexes which assemble into filaments, rings and network-like structures. The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has five such septin genes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8803
Abstract: Abstract Sexual selection frequently promotes the evolution of aggressive behaviors that help males compete against their rivals, but which may harm females and hamper their fitness. Kin selection theory predicts that optimal male–male competition levels… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8960
Abstract: Abstract To respond to changing environmental conditions, a population may either shift toward better‐adapted genotypes or adapt on an individual level. The present work aimed to quantify the relevance of these two processes by comparing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/em.22476
Abstract: In their natural habitats, populations of organisms are faced with different levels of chronic low‐intensity radiation, causing a wide range of radiobiological effects (from radiosensitivity to radioadaptive response and hormesis). In this study, specimens of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23356
Abstract: Zidovudine (AZT) is the most commonly prescribed antiviral drug for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. However, its chronic administration causes toxic side effects limiting its use. This study aimed to evaluate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.4678
Abstract: BACKGROUND Azadirachtin is a prominent natural pesticide and represents an alternative to conventional insecticides. It has been successfully used against insect pests. However, its effects on reproduction require further analysis. Here we investigated lethal and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-34436-8_7
Abstract: Notch pathway plays diverse and fundamental roles during animal development. One of the most relevant, which arises directly from its unique mode of activation, is the specification of cell fates and tissue boundaries. The development… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-53150-2_8
Abstract: Asymmetric cell division (ACD) is a fundamental mechanism to generate cell diversity, giving rise to daughter cells with different developmental potentials. ACD is manifested in the asymmetric segregation of proteins or mRNAs, when the two… read more here.
