Conservation and divergence of the retinal homeobox genetic neural lineage between Drosophila melanogaster and Tribolium castaneum
(2024-06-25)Brains are the central organ integrating sensory information and orchestrating behaviour. Their function and development are of great scientific interest, but their enormous complexity makes them difficult to study. The ... -
Evolution of central complex development: Cellular and genetic mechanisms
(2019-11-11)Brains are conserved between insect species, as they consist of a set of anatomically similar areas, or neuropils. Simultaneously, these neuropils differ in size, shape, position and developmental timing between insect ... -
Head versus tail: germ cell-less initiates axis formation via homeobrain and zen1 in a beetle
(2018-08-27)The iBeetle screen project: Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard and Eric Wieschaus performed the first saturated forward genetic screen using random mutagenesis to identify genes important for embryonic development in Drosophila ... -
Investigating the Re-initiation of Segmentation with Temporally Restricted RNAi in Tribolium castaneum
(2020-10-01)Much of the success of arthropods is attributed to their body’s segmentation. Segmentation provides various opportunities for nature to evolve new structures without greatly impacting overall fitness of the animal. Most ... -
Morphogenesis and Genetic Regulation of the Insect Head
(2016-09-30)Natural selection and the struggle for ecological niches were the driving force for the origin of a tremendous number of animal groups with different body shapes. The segmental organization of insects enhanced their ...
