Simple Summary The abundance of insects indicates that they are one of the most
adaptable forms of life on earth. Genetic, physiological, and biochemical plasticity and the …

Steroid hormones are one of the major bioactive molecules responsible for the coordinated
regulation of biological processes in multicellular organisms. In insects, the principal steroid …

Drosophila melanogaster has been widely used in the biological sciences as a model
organism. Drosophila has a relatively short life span of 60–80 days, which makes it attractive …

The long-term survival of any multicellular species depends on the success of its germline in
producing high-quality gametes and maximizing survival of the offspring. Studies in …

Interactions between the soma and germline are essential for gametogenesis. In the
Drosophila testis, differentiating germ cells are encapsulated by two somatic cells that …

The health and life span of Drosophila melanogaster are partly determined by intestinal
barrier integrity, metabolic rate as well as stress response and the expression of longevity …

Gametogenesis is one of the most extreme cellular differentiation processes that takes place
in Drosophila male and female germlines. This process begins at the germline stem cell …

Adequate genetic information is essential for sustainable crustacean fisheries and
aquaculture management. The commercially important orange mud crab, Scylla olivacea, is …

The human prostate is a gland of the male reproductive tract, which together with the
seminal vesicles, is responsible for most seminal fluid production. It is a common site of …

We report that preexisting (old) and newly synthesized (new) histones H3 and H4 are
asymmetrically partitioned during the division of Drosophila intestinal stem cells (ISCs) …
