Ecdysone Control of Developmental Transitions: Lessons from Drosophila Research
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 58 Số 1 - Trang 497-516 - 2013
The steroid hormone ecdysone is the central regulator of insect developmental
transitions. Recent new advances in our understanding of ecdysone action have
relied heavily on the application of Drosophila melanogaster molecular genetic
tools to study insect metamorphosis. In this review, we focus on three major
aspects of Drosophila ecdysone biology: (a) factors that regulate the timing of
ecdysone...
Insect Response to Plant Defensive Protease Inhibitors
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 60 Số 1 - Trang 233-252 - 2015
Plant protease inhibitors (PIs) are natural plant defense proteins that inhibit
proteases of invading insect herbivores. However, their anti-insect efficacy is
determined not only by their potency toward a vulnerable insect system but also
by the response of the insect to such a challenge. Through the long history of
coevolution with their host plants, insects have developed sophisticated
mechanis...
Sublethal Effects of Neurotoxic Insecticides on Insect Behavior
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 33 Số 1 - Trang 149-168 - 1988
The Sublethal Effects of Pesticides on Beneficial Arthropods
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 52 Số 1 - Trang 81-106 - 2007
Traditionally, measurement of the acute toxicity of pesticides to beneficial
arthropods has relied largely on the determination of an acute median lethal
dose or concentration. However, the estimated lethal dose during acute toxicity
tests may only be a partial measure of the deleterious effects. In addition to
direct mortality induced by pesticides, their sublethal effects on arthropod
physiology...
Non-Bee Insects as Visitors and Pollinators of Crops: Biology, Ecology, and Management
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 65 Số 1 - Trang 391-407 - 2020
Insects other than bees (i.e., non-bees) have been acknowledged as important
crop pollinators, but our understanding of which crop plants they visit and how
effective they are as crop pollinators is limited. To compare visitation and
efficiency of crop-pollinating bees and non-bees at a global scale, we review
the literature published from 1950 to 2018 concerning the visitors and
pollinators of 10...
FOLSOMIA CANDIDA(COLLEMBOLA): A “Standard” Soil Arthropod
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 50 Số 1 - Trang 201-222 - 2005
▪ Abstract Folsomia candida Willem 1902, a member of the order Collembola
(colloquially called springtails), is a common and widespread arthropod that
occurs in soils throughout the world. The species is parthenogenetic and is easy
to maintain in the laboratory on a diet of granulated dry yeast. F. candida has
been used as a “standard” test organism for more than 40 years for estimating
the effec...
The Juvenile Hormone Signaling Pathway in Insect Development
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 58 Số 1 - Trang 181-204 - 2013
The molecular action of juvenile hormone (JH), a regulator of vital importance
to insects, was until recently regarded as a mystery. The past few years have
seen an explosion of studies of JH signaling, sparked by a finding that a
JH-resistance gene, Methoprene-tolerant (Met), plays a critical role in insect
metamorphosis. Here, we summarize the recently acquired knowledge on the
capacity of Met t...
Nutritional Interactions in Insect-Microbial Symbioses: Aphids and Their Symbiotic BacteriaBuchnera
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 43 Số 1 - Trang 17-37 - 1998
▪ Abstract Most aphids possess intracellular bacteria of the genus Buchnera.
The bacteria are transmitted vertically via the aphid ovary, and the association
is obligate for both partners: Bacteria-free aphids grow poorly and produce few
or no offspring, and Buchnera are both unknown apart from aphids and apparently
unculturable. The symbiosis has a nutritional basis. Specifically, bacterial
prov...
Insecticide Resistance in Insect Vectors of Human Disease
Annual Review of Entomology - Tập 45 Số 1 - Trang 371-391 - 2000
▪ Abstract Insecticide resistance is an increasing problem in many insect
vectors of disease. Our knowledge of the basic mechanisms underlying resistance
to commonly used insecticides is well established. Molecular techniques have
recently allowed us to start and dissect most of these mechanisms at the DNA
level. The next major challenge will be to use this molecular understanding of
resistance t...
