DOI: 10.1007/s00442-020-04668-y
Abstract: Fatty acids (FAs) are key nutrients for fitness which take part in multiple physiological processes over the ontogeny of organisms. Yet, we lack evidence on how FA nutrition mediates life-history trade-offs and ontogenetic niche shifts… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jme/tjac177
Abstract: Abstract A variety of physiological, morphological, and behavioral changes occur throughout the life cycle of mosquitoes, which can be correlated with a shift from the aquatic to terrestrial environment. Aedes albopictus Skuse is an abundant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joa.13062
Abstract: The mechanical performance of limb bones is closely associated with an animal's locomotor capability and is thus important to our understanding of animal behaviour. This study combined a geometrical analysis and three‐point bending tests to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1134/s1067413620020113
Abstract: The stability of mammal populations in time and space largely depends on their reproduction, which is described using various reproductive characteristics of animals at population to suborganismal levels, e.g., age at maturity, fecundity, reproductive period… read more here.

DOI: 10.22201/ib.20078706e.2019.90.2664
Abstract: Triatomine insects are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas, 1909), the causing agent of Chagas disease. We studied the morphological ontogenetic changes of Dipetalogaster maxima (Uhler, 1894), an endemic Chagas vector of Baja California Sur, Mexico.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins9040116
Abstract: Theraphosid spiders (tarantulas) are venomous arthropods found in most tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Tarantula venoms are a complex cocktail of toxins with potential use as pharmacological tools, drugs and bioinsecticides. Although numerous… read more here.
