This study shows that photoperiod induces sex-specific immune priming in linden bugs, with short-day conditions enhancing immune activity in females but not males.

This study analyzes the evolution of Drosophila-type timeless across animals, identifying key sequence changes and their association with loss of clock proteins.

The paper identifies and analyzes circadian clock and light-input pathway genes in Hemiptera, revealing lineage-specific gene losses and splicing variants, as well as a horizontal gene transfer event.
