Closely related species often differ in the signals involved in sexual communication and mate recognition. Determining the factors influencing signal quality (i.e. signal's content and conspicuousness
1. Thermal limits of ectotherms have been studied extensively and are believed to be evolutionary constrained, leaving ectotherms at risk under future climate change. Phenotypic plasticity may extend
We identify a temporal cascade of ecdysone-inducible transcription factor gene expression during Drosophila wing development. This temporal cascade corresponds with dynamic changes in chromatin accesi
The maternal mRNA nanos is required for anterior-posterior patterning in the early Drosophila melanogaster development. The nanos-mRNA is translationally repressed and deadenylated during the first tw
