All organisms on Earth have evolved biological rhythms to face alternation of periods of
favorable and unfavorable environmental conditions, at various temporal scales. Diapause …

Various animals across the tree of life express some form of programmed dormancy (eg
hibernation, diapause) to maximize fitness in highly seasonal environments. The integrated …

The Colorado potato beetle is one of the most challenging agricultural pests to manage. It
has shown a spectacular ability to adapt to a variety of solanaceaeous plants and variable …

Background The black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) is the most promising insect candidate
for nutrient-recycling through bioconversion of organic waste into biomass, thereby …

Organisms living in seasonally variable environments utilize cues such as light and
temperature to induce plastic responses, enabling them to exploit favorable seasons and …

Stress tolerance and adaptation to stress are known to facilitate species invasions. Many
invasive species are also pests and insecticides are used to control them, which could …

In temperate climates, the recurring seasonal exigencies of winter represent a fundamental
physiological challenge for a wide range of organisms. In response, many temperate insects …

Agricultural insect pests (AIPs) are widely successful in adapting to natural and
anthropogenic stressors, repeatedly overcoming population bottlenecks and acquiring …

In temperate insects, winters are typically endured by entering diapause, which comprises a
deep resting stage. Correct timing of diapause termination is vital for synchronization of …

Here, we examined whether glyphosate affects the microbiota of herbivores feeding on non-
target plants. Colorado potato beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) were reared on potato …
