Low temperatures are rarely experienced in isolation. The impacts of low temperatures on
insects can be exacerbated or alleviated by the addition of other environmental factors …

Ambient thermal conditions mediate insect growth, development, reproduction, survival, and
distribution. With increasingly frequent and severe cold spells, it is critical to determine low …

Increased average temperatures and extreme thermal events (such as heatwaves) brought
forth by climate change impose important constraints on aerobic metabolism. Notably …

In the cold, chill susceptible insects lose the ability to regulate ionic and osmotic gradients.
This leads to hemolymph hyperkalemia that drives a debilitating loss of cell membrane …

Background: Many insect species have evolved the ability to survive extracellular freezing.
The search for the underlying principles of their natural freeze tolerance remains hampered …

Flight muscle histolysis is a widespread strategy used by insects to break down functional
flight muscle and modulate the energetic costs associated with flight muscle use and …

Simple Summary This study investigated the influence of exendin-4, a glucagon-like peptide-
1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, on fall webworm Hyphantria cunea larvae. We found that …

Galeruca daurica (Joannis) is a pest species with serious outbreaks in the Inner Mongolian
grasslands in recent years, and its larvae and eggs are extremely cold-tolerant. To gain a …

Understanding the influence of environmental stressors on pest reproduction is critical for
effective management strategies, particularly in a changing climate. This study investigates …

Bees, as individual poikilotherms capable of group homeothermy, possess temperature
tolerance and regulatory mechanisms crucial for biodiversity conservation. The Asian …
