Mutation of a cuticular protein, BmorCPR2, alters larval body shape and adaptability in silkworm, Bombyx mori.
Cuticular proteins (CPs) are crucial components of the insect cuticle. Although numerous genes encoding cuticular proteins have been identified in known insect genomes to date, their functions in maintaining insect body shape and adaptability remain largely unknown. In the current study, positional cloning led to the identification of a gene encoding an RR1-type cuticular protein, BmorCPR2, hig...
متن کاملEmbryonic, larval and juvenile development of tropical sea urchin, Diadema setosum
Diadema setosum (Leske, 1778), is one of the common echinoids widely distributed in the Indo-West Pacific Ocean, where it occurs from the Red Sea, Persian Gulf and the east coast of Africa to Japan, Australia and Malaysia. To investigate the developmental basis of morphological changes in embryos and larvae, we documented the ontogeny of D. setosum in a controlled laboratory condition at the In...

متن کاملThe Genetic, Morphological, and Physiological Characterization of a Dark Larval Cuticle Mutation in the Butterfly, Bicyclus anynana
Studies on insect melanism have greatly contributed to our understanding of natural selection and the ultimate factors influencing the evolution of darkly pigmented phenotypes. Research on several species of melanic lepidopteran larvae have found that low levels of circulating juvenile hormone (JH) titers are associated with a melanic phenotype, suggesting that genetic changes in the JH biosynt...
متن کاملPrepupal differentiation in Drosophila: distinct cell types elaborate a shared structure, the pupal cuticle, but accumulate transcripts in unique patterns.
The components of the pupal cuticle are the main differentiation products synthesized by both the larval and adult epidermis during the prepupal period of Drosophila development. The pupal cuticle is formed in vitro by imaginal discs in response to a 6 h pulse of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE). We previously described the isolation and initial characterization of four ecdysone-dependent genes (EDGs...
