Time-course of antipredator behavioral changes induced by the helminth Pomphorhynchus laevis in its intermediate host Gammarus pulex: the switch in manipulation according to parasi... by Rigaud, Thierry, Balourdet, Aude, Bauer, Alexandre

“…However, the whole time-course of this sequence of behavioral switch is not yet known, and only one antipredator behavior has been studied to date.  Here we show that the protective part of this manipulation begins quite late during the parasite ontogeny, suggesting that the advantages overpass the costs induced by this protective manipulation only at this stage. …”

The mitochondrial gene order and CYTB gene evolution in insects by F. S. Sharko, A. V. Nedoluzhko, S. M. Rastorguev, S. V. Tsygankova, E. S. Boulygina, A. A. Polilov, E. B. Prokhortchouk, K. G. Skryabin

“…Mitochondrial DNA genes (mtDNA) are quite often used as markers for phylogenetic research into many organisms including arthropods, because mtDNA is multicopied, is inherited maternally, does not undergo recombination and accumulates mutations quickly enough (relative to the nuclear genome). To date, a large number of full nucleotide sequences of mitogenomes (thousands of organisms) has been deposited in public databases; however, their phylogenetic analysis has obstacles, especially for representatives of the insects (Insecta), whose evolution takes a considerable part of geological time. …”
