Lipidome Unsaturation Affects the Morphology and Proteome of the Drosophila Eye by Mukesh Kumar (132604)

“…In contrast, the abundance of two stress response proteins, Turandot A and Smg5, is decreased by lipid unsaturation. Our findings could guide the genetic dissection of homeostatic mechanisms that maintain visual function when the eye is exposed to environmental and dietary challenges.…”

PTPRM methylation induced by FN1 promotes the development of glioblastoma by activating STAT3 signalling by Jian Song (4232)

“…P-STAT3 was down-regulated after 5-aza treatment. Overexpressing FN1 decreased PTPRM levels (<i>p</i> < 0.001), knockdown of FN1 decreased PTPRM methylation and inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation. …”

Widespread Neogene volcanism on Central Kerguelen Plateau, Southern Indian Ocean by R. A. Duncan (3136812)

Response of adult dragonflies to artificial prey of different size and colour by Tammy M. Duong (4182808)

“…Therefore, it is likely that their behaviour also shapes the nature of anti-predator traits. In this study, we evaluated the rates of attack of a community (13 species) of mature adult dragonflies (Odonata) on artificial prey of varying size (2.5–31 mm lengthwise) and colour pattern (black, black/yellow striped). …”

Fine-Scale Mapping of Natural Variation in Fly Fecundity Identifies Neuronal Domain of Expression and Function of an Aquaporin by Alan O. Bergland (148575)

“…Genetic variation in female fecundity in flies derived from a wild orchard population is heritable and largely independent of other measured life history traits. We map a portion of this variation to a single QTL and then use deficiency mapping to further refine this QTL to 5 candidate genes. …”

<b>Ontogeny of energy use in harvester ant colonies, and the cost of rearing brood </b> by Xiaohui Guo (9669860)

“…In multiple social insect taxa, colony metabolic rate scales hypometrically across species or populations at the same developmental stage, but metabolic patterns during ontogeny have not been examined for any social insect species. We performed the first ontogenetic study of social metabolic scaling in harvester ant colonies (<i>Pogonomyrmex californicus</i>) over 3.5 years as they grew from 52±12 to 767±380 workers. …”
