Exploring the molecular basis of diapause I induction in the annual killifish Garcialebias charrua: a transcriptomic approach
One of the most unique examples of adaptation to extreme environments is exemplified by diapauses (I, II and III) in annual killifish embryos. We...

Thermoperiodic Effect on Diapause Induction in the Progeny of Female Trichogramma telengai Sor. (Hymenoptera, Trichogrammatidae): Adjustment but not Substitution of Photoperiodism
AbstractThe effects of constant temperatures (15, 20, 25, and 30°C) and thermoperiods (daily alternations of high temperature of 25 or 30°C and low...

Improving quality of stored Trichogramma evanescens (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) by inducing diapause or quiescence
BackgroundEfficacy of parasitic wasps from the genus Trichogramma to attack the eggs of numerous important pests in various agricultural crops makes...

No evidence for the involvement of juvenile hormone III and 20-hydroxyecdysone in maternal decisions for embryonic diapause and diapause entry in the band-legged ground cricket Dianemobius nigrofasciatus (Orthoptera: Trigonidiidae)
Diapause is a programmed stage-specific arrest or delay in reproduction or development and is commonly used to circumvent an adverse season. Some...

Characterization of pre-diapause phase in the northern Drosophila species D. ezoana
Drosophila ezoana is a virilis group Drosophila species inhabiting northern latitudes. The flies enter adult reproductive diapause to survive winter...

Semi-field and surveillance data define the natural diapause timeline for Culex pipiens across the United States
Reproductive diapause serves as biological mechanism for many insects, including the mosquito Culex pipiens , to overwinter in temperate climates....

On the Nature of Individual Variation in Diapause Induction among the Progeny of Trichogramma telengai Sor. (Hymenoptera, Trichogrammatidae)
AbstractIn this communication, we analyze the variation in diapause incidence among isofemale substrains of the main laboratory strain of Trichogramma...

Temperature-induced embryonic diapause in chickens is mediated by PKC-NF-κB-IRF1 signaling
BackgroundEmbryonic diapause (dormancy) is a state of temporary arrest of embryonic development that is triggered by unfavorable conditions and...

Evidence for the existence of embryonic diapause in the domestic-introduced subtropical stick insect, Entoria okinawaensis (Phasmatodea: Phasmatidae)
Entoria okinawaensis Shiraki, 1935 (Phasmatodea: Phasmatidae) is a stick insect originally distributed among the subtropical islands of Japan. This...

Effect of changing temperatures from the spawning and egg stages to the emerging adult stage on the induction of reproductive diapause in females of Pseudaulacaspis pentagona (Hemiptera: Diaspididae)
Overwintering females in the third generation of Pseudaulacaspis pentagona (Targioni Tozetti) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) entered reproductive diapause...

Impact of photoperiod and functional clock on male diapause in cryptochrome and pdf mutants in the linden bug Pyrrhocoris apterus
Numerous insect species living in temperate regions survive adverse conditions, such as winter, in a state of developmental arrest. The most reliable...
