DOI: 10.1002/arch.70041
Abstract: Transgenerational immune priming (TGIP) is a phenomenon in which parental exposure to pathogen infection enhances resistance to pathogens in their offspring. TGIP has been reported in several insects, including Lepidoptera, but it has not yet… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cbin.11555
Abstract: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are thought to be exclusively nuclear and guide nucleotide modifications of ribosomal RNAs. Recently, more and more evidence has suggested that the nucleolus is a stress sensor for changes in growth… read more here.
