This study identifies and localizes NPGL and NPGM mRNA expression in the Japanese quail hypothalamus, showing sex-specific and fasting-responsive patterns.

This study identifies human skin microbiome odorants that influence mosquito landing behavior, finding specific volatiles reduce mosquito attraction.

This study examines how the presence of heterospecific adults affects the reproductive output of P. dissecta through reproductive interference.

This paper confirms the presence of Ae. albopictus in rural areas of southern Zambia using DNA barcoding and reports its population dynamics over time.

This study shows that the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus can orient to visual stimuli with coarse spatial resolution, using a model adapted from another species to predict its angular sensitivity.

This study documents the spread of Aedes albopictus across Sao Tome and Principe, finding its presence up to 680 meters and suggesting a larger range than previously thought.

The study shows that CLas infection in Asian citrus psyllids alters their behavioral and electrophysiological responses to acetic acid, a putative sex pheromone.

This study identifies two cryptic species of the Anopheles gambiae complex in Kinshasa, with Anopheles gambiae being the most prevalent.

This study evaluates the effects of sodium butyrate and rosemary leaves on broiler chickens' growth, biochemistry, immunity, and carcass traits, finding improved performance and immune function with combined supplementation.

This study assesses the toxicity of chlorpyrifos on A. testudineus, showing reduced protein/glycogen levels and histopathological damage in stomach, intestine, and muscle tissues.

The study identifies a specific group of olfactory sensory neurons in green spotted puffers that respond to the nontoxic TTX analog TDT, supporting its role as a chemosensory cue for conspecific attraction and prey detection.

This study assesses the toxicity of two pesticides, lambda and methomyl, on the Carthusian snail using contact and dipping methods, finding methomyl more toxic and contact application more effective.

This review analyzes EPN research in Sub-Saharan Africa, highlighting regional focus, target pests, and gaps in knowledge about indigenous species and their bacterial symbionts.

This study evaluates how probiotics, glucose oxidase, and their combination affect sheep exposed to aflatoxin B1, improving health and reducing toxin levels.

The paper confirms the presence of Protogoniomorpha anacardii in southern Saudi Arabia based on photographs and compares it to subspecies descriptions.

This paper redescribes the Amazonian nurse frog Allobates gasconi using topotypical specimens and integrates morphology and bioacoustic data to clarify its phylogenetic placement and taxonomy.

This study develops high-resolution melting markers to detect hybridization between Mauremys sinensis and Mauremys reevesii in South Korea, identifying hybrid individuals at multiple sites.

This study shows that adding Tenebrio molitor meal to the diet of diarrhea mice improves their health by increasing feed intake, reducing diarrhea rates, and enhancing enzyme activities.

This study uses molecular data to determine the colonization history of two Tethysbaena species in the Levant, finding a two-stage transgression pattern rather than previously proposed hypotheses.

This study identifies neuronal gene expression differences between trematode stages, revealing streamlined molecular toolkits and key genes involved in host-finding behaviors.
