Female adults of the migratory locust,Locusta migratoria manilensis(Meyen),can sense seasonal photoperiod changes,which induces embryonic diapause as a key strategy to overwinter.Serine protease inhibitor genes(SPNs)w...

The forkhead box O(FoxO),as a conserved transcription factor,plays an indispensable role in regulating insect diapause.However,how FoxO is regulated to control diapause in insects remains unknown.In this study,we disc...

Diapause is a long-lived stage which has evolved into an important strategy for insects to circumvent extreme environments.In the pupal stage,Helicoverpa armigera can enter diapause,a state characterized by significan...
The paper investigates the existence of a relationship between the diapause duration and the temperature threshold of hatching,the variances in temperature and hatching time of the artificial six-month population of L...

Maternal photoperiodic response is a key factor that affects offspring diapause in migratory locust,Locusta migratoria L.(Orthoptera:Acridoidea).Although many aspects of insect diapause have been studied,little is kno...
Plant-insect interactions are key model systems to assess how some species affect the distribution, the abundance, and the evolution of others. Tree reproductive structures represent a critical resource for many insec...
