Oviposition, life cycle, and longevity of the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex rugosus rugosus
(2017-01-01)
Studies related to the demography of individual members from ant colonies have received little attention, although they are the basis to understanding the population dynamics of colonies. Thus, the objective of this work ...
Oviposition pattern and within-season spatial and temporal variation of pre-dispersal seed predation in a population of Mimosa bimucronata trees
(Springer, 2011-09-01)
Spatial and temporal variation of pre-dispersal seed predation was investigated in a population of Mimosa bimucronata trees located in the south-east region of Brazil. Three main hypotheses were addressed: (1) that the ...

Impact of the medicine Hydroxyurea on reproduction and development, using Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism
(2014)
The clinical efficacy of oral hydroxyurea (HU) in the treatment of the sickle cell disease (SCD) is already proven. However, side-effects on reproduction and development still cause concerns, mainly in long term treatments. ...

Aggregated oviposition in Rhodnius prolixus, sensory cues and physiological consequences
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-04)
Females of the haematophagous bug Rhodnius prolixus attach their eggs in clusters on substrates related to their hosts, such as nests or avian feathers. Because the hosts are an enormous food resource as well as potential ...
