The paper investigates how sexual dimorphism in wing color patterns of the harlequin ladybug evolves by analyzing the role of the doublesex gene and its regulation of the h gene.

This study applies DIPA-CRISPR to Aedes aegypti, demonstrating its effectiveness in polytrophic meroistic ovaries and confirming optimal injection timing for gene editing.

The paper investigates the role of E93 expression levels in the embryonic development of insects and links its reduction to the evolution of metamorphosis.

This study shows that the pheromone binding protein BmPBP1 affects the temporal resolution of antennal responses in silkmoths, impacting their ability to track pheromone plumes.
