Mutations of the Cullin-3 (Cul3) E3 ubiquitin ligase are associated with autism and schizophrenia, neurological disorders characterized by sleep disturbances altered synaptic function. Cul3 engages dozens adaptor proteins to recruit hundreds substrates for ubiquitination, but adaptors that impact synapses remain ill-defined. Here we implicate Insomniac (Inc), a conserved protein required normal homeostasis in Drosophila , as adaptor. Inc binds vivo, mutations within N-terminal BTB domain...
Anxiety is a remarkably common condition among patients with pharyngitis, but the relationship between these disorders has received little research attention, and underlying neural mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we show that densely innervated pharynx transmits signals induced by pharyngeal inflammation to glossopharyngeal vagal sensory neurons of nodose/jugular/petrosal (NJP) superganglia in mice. Specifically, NJP project norepinephrinergic nucleus solitary tract (NTS NE ). These NTS...
Light has been shown to relieve pain, but the underlying neural mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we show that low-intensity (200 lux) green light treatment exerts antinociceptive effects through a circuit from visual cortex projecting anterior cingulate (ACC) in mice. Specifically, viral tracing, vivo two-photon calcium imaging, and fiber photometry recordings activated glutamatergic projections medial part of secondary (V2MGlu) GABAergic neurons ACC, which drives inhibition local...
Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley is a highly invasive pest threatening global cotton production and numerous cultivated crops. The sterile insect technique (SIT), based on γ-ray irradiation, offers sustainable eco-friendly alternative to chemical controls for managing pests. This study aimed determine the optimal developmental stage radiation dose induce sterility in P. solenopsis. Male pupae aged 5 days demonstrated highest tolerance irradiation among all tested age groups. These 5-day-old...
The discovery of the lanthanide requiring enzymes in microbes was a significant scientific that opened whole new avenue biotechnological research this important group metals. However, ecological impact lanthanides on microbial communities utilizing methane (CH 4 ) remains largely unexplored. In study, laboratory microcosm model experiment performed using rice field soils with different pH origins (5.76, 7.2, and 8.36) concentrations La 3+ form lanthanum chloride (LaCl 3 ). Results clearly...
Introduction The south American tomato pinworm (Tuta absoluta), an invasive insect pest species, has established itself in more than 33 Chinese prefectures, where it is mainly damaging crops. Immediate efforts have been initiated to find strategies control this pest. Studies shown that biochar (BC) amendment soil can enhance plant growth and resistance herbivory. Methods First, we quantified the morphological performance of plants grown different coconut bran bamboo charcoal (v/v)...
Spodoptera exigua is a polyphagous pest of diverse crops and causes considerable economic losses. The overuse chemical insecticides for controlling this results in insecticide resistance, environmental pollution toxicity to other non-target organisms. Therefore, sustainable efficient way management urgently required. In study, laboratory bioassays eleven commonly used insecticides, the specific entomopathogen S. (Spodoptera multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus, SeMNPV), SeMNPV-insecticide...
Alcohol use disorder is highly prevalent worldwide, with characteristically severe pain sensitivity during withdrawal. Here, we established a mouse model of hyperalgesia ethanol withdrawal (EW) before addiction to investigate the window for onset and underlying mechanisms. Viral tracing in vivo microendoscopic two-photon calcium imaging identified circuit pathway from dorsal hippocampal CA1 glutamatergic neurons (dCA1 Glu ) anterior cingulate cortex (ACC activated EW mice hyperalgesia....
Two closely related thrips species, Frankliniella occidentalis and intonsa, are important pests on agricultural horticultural crops. They have several similarities, including occurrence patterns, host range, aggregation pheromone compounds. However, there very few reports about the chemosensory genes olfactory mechanisms in these two species. To expand our knowledge of system, we conducted antennal transcriptome analysis identified seven odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) eight (CSPs) F....
Dendrolimus houi is one of the most common caterpillars infesting Gymnosperm trees, and widely distributed in several countries Southeast Asia, exists soley or coexists with congeners some Lasiocampidae species various forest habitats. However, natural hybrids occasionally occur among closely related same habitat, host preference, extreme climate stress, geographic isolation probably lead to their uncertain taxonomic consensus. The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D. was extracted sequenced by...
The olfactory sensing system of the syrphid fly Eupeodes corollae is essential in pollination and prey localization, but little known about ultrastructural organization their organs. In this study, morphology, distribution, antennal sensilla E. both sexes were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) transmission (TEM). Neuronal responses a subtype basiconica to floral scent compounds recorded single sensillum recording (SSR). Ten morphological types, including Böhm bristles, chaetica,...
