Published in 2022 at "FEBS Letters"

DOI: 10.1002/1873-3468.14566

Abstract: Mitohormesis defines the increase in fitness induced by adaptive responses to mild mitochondrial stress. Here, we show that N‐acetyloxfenicine (NAO) exerted higher thermotolerance than an endogenous mitohormesis inducer, N‐acetyltyrosine (NAT). This activity was not observed… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Advanced Science"

DOI: 10.1002/advs.202207110

Abstract: Monitoring insects of different species to understand the factors affecting their diversity and decline is a major challenge. Laser remote sensing and spectroscopy offer promising novel solutions to this. Coherent scattering from thin wing membranes… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16113

Abstract: PREMISE Why have pollen grains evolved to be exceptionally large in some species? Pollen feeding hypothesis suggests that if the proportion of pollen amounts for feeding is reduced in a flower, the low allocation to… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21632

Abstract: Biogenic amines (BAs), such as octopamine, tyramine, dopamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine regulate various behaviors and physiological functions in insects. Here, we identified seven genes encoding BA biosynthetic enzymes and 16 genes encoding BA G protein-coupled… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21640

Abstract: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that have immune responses to various stimuli have been identified in some insects. One type of pathogen-associated molecular pattern, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), can trigger the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway and immune… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21665

Abstract: Insect pests can cause crop damage in yield or quality, resulting in profit losses for farmers. The primary approach to control them is still the use of chemical pesticides resulting in significant hazards to the… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21674

Abstract: Insects have evolved resistance to almost all insecticides developed for their control. Multiple mechanisms of resistance, including enhanced metabolism and excretion of insecticides, target-site insensitivity, reduced penetration of insecticides, and avoidance behavior, have been reported.… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21822

Abstract: RNAi efficiency in insects is different from species to species; some species in Coleoptera are relatively more amenable to RNA interference (RNAi) than other species. One of the major factors is the presence of dsRNA-degrading… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21869

Abstract: Insects have evolved a powerful detoxification system to protect themselves against environmental and anthropogenic xenobiotics including pesticides and nanoparticles. The resulting tolerance to insecticides is an immense problem in agriculture. In this study, we summarize… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Archives of insect biochemistry and physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/arch.21889

Abstract: The subfamily Bombycinae Latreille, [1802] is an important silk-producing group, including well-known economical insects. Although there are many studies on the development of these economic insects, the relationships between genera/species of this subfamily are still… read more here.
