Abstract: The ambrosia beetle Platypus quercivorus (Coleoptera: Platypodidae) is a vector of the pathogenic fungi, Raffaelea quercivora (Ophiostomatales: Ophiostomataceae), which causes Japanese oak wilt disease. Previous studies have shown that the beetle displays positive phototactic behavior;… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jembe.2019.151183
Abstract: Abstract Marine harpacticoid copepod Tigriopus japonicus is commonly distributed in the tide-pools and shows benthic behavior. To determine its phototactic behavior, the movement pattern was investigated with different light wavelengths (white, peaks at 460 and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1105/tpc.18.00936
Abstract: Rapid changes in the phosphorylation status of the light receptor ChR1 help the motile green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii adapt its phototactic sensitivity to varying environmental conditions. The unicellular alga Chlamydomonas (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii) exhibits oriented movement… read more here.
