DOI: 10.1002/arch.21949
Abstract: Eicosanoids mediate various insect physiological processes, including reproduction. Especially, the eicosanoid prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) is known to mediate oocyte development in some insects. The explosive reproductive potential of the Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/mbio.01142-20
Abstract: Many insects harbor obligate bacterial symbionts that can be vertically transmitted to offspring by female insects through eggs. Here, we report that leafhopper vitellogenin (Vg) recognizes and binds a surface channel molecule (porin) on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3201/eid2408.180560
Abstract: Occasionally, abnormal forms of parasitic helminth eggs are detected during routine diagnostics. This finding can prove problematic in diagnosis because morphologic analysis based on tightly defined measurements is the primary method used to identify the… read more here.
