DOI: 10.1002/arch.21989
Abstract: Insect-specific epsilon glutathion S-transferases (GSTs) are a class of multifunctional GST superfamily, which play important roles in detoxification of xenobiotic substances. Most research on GSTs has focused on insecticide detoxification and resistance, with little research… read more here.

Two visual systems in one eyestalk: The unusual optic lobe metamorphosis in the stomatopod Alima pacifica
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Developmental Neurobiology"
DOI: 10.1002/dneu.22550
Abstract: The compound eyes of adult stomatopod crustaceans have two to six ommatidial rows at the equator, called the midband, that are often specialized for color and polarization vision. Beneath the retina, this midband specialization is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dneu.22597
Abstract: The marine mud snail, Tritia (=Ilyanassa) obsoleta, displays a biphasic life cycle. During the initial phase of early development, embryos hatch from benthic egg capsules to become weakly swimming veliger larvae. In the second phase,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jat.3791
Abstract: Tadpoles during metamorphosis are sensitive to chemical exposure as shown in the amphibian metamorphosis assay, which is a method to detect effects of chemicals on the functions of hypothalamus‐pituitary‐thyroid axis. The present study reports existence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.21575
Abstract: During pupation, the tissues of holometabolous insects change in preparation for the adult lifestyles, although little literature exists examining this hidden process in detail. Using beetles as a model, we hypothesized that species where the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.6997
Abstract: BACKGROUND The cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera, is a worldwide polyphagous pest, causing huge economic losses in vegetable, cotton, corn, etc. Due to the long-term exposure to Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins, evolution of resistance by this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00248-017-1034-7
Abstract: In organisms with complex life histories, dramatic changes in microbial community structure may occur with host development and immune system maturation. Amphibian host susceptibility to diseases such as chytridiomycosis may be affected by the reorganization… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00265-018-2616-1
Abstract: Animal behaviour may change with age, when young individuals experience different environments from adults. However, the role of ontogeny in personality traits is still open to debate and it is not clear whether individual differences… read more here.

Midgut morphological changes and autophagy during metamorphosis in sand flies
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Cell and Tissue Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00441-017-2586-z
Abstract: During metamorphosis, holometabolous insects undergo significant remodeling of their midgut and become able to cope with changes in dietary requirements between larval and adult stages. At this stage, insects must be able to manage and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11306-017-1167-1
Abstract: IntroductionMetamorphosis is a complicated process in which cell proliferation, differentiation, and death are orchestrated to form the mature structures of insects. In Drosophila, this process is controlled by ecdysone, a steroid hormone responsible for tissue… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-018-1204-2
Abstract: Antifouling chemicals have a long history of causing toxicity to aquatic organisms. We measured growth and developmental timing in wood frog tadpoles exposed to the antifouling chemical medetomidine (10 nM–10 μM) starting at two different developmental stages… read more here.
