The expression of select genes necessary for membrane-associated estrogen receptor signaling differ by sex in adult rat hippocampus
Meitzen, J., Britson, K. A., Tuomela, K., & Mermelstein, P. G. (2019, February). STEROIDS, Vol. 142, pp. 21–27.
author keywords: Caveolin; DHHC; Palmitoylation; Estrogen receptor; Sex; Hippocampus
MeSH headings : Animals; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Female; Hippocampus / metabolism; Male; Receptors, Estrogen / metabolism; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Sex Characteristics; Signal Transduction / genetics

A Statewide Survey of Container Aedes Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in North Carolina, 2016: A Multiagency Surveillance Response to Zika Using Ovitraps
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL ENTOMOLOGY, 56(2), 483–490.
author keywords: Aedes albopictus; Aedes triseriatus; Aedes japonicus; distribution
MeSH headings : Aedes; Animal Distribution; Animals; Mosquito Vectors; North Carolina; Ovum
TL;DR:
It was determined that longitude, elevation, rainfall, and temperature had significant effects on explaining the variation in presence, abundance, and phenology of container Aedes in North Carolina, and much of the variation was not explained at this coarse scale and may benefit from finer-scale analyses.

Exotic urban trees conserve similar natural enemy communities to native congeners but have fewer pests
PEERJ, 7.
author keywords: Urban trees; Parasitoids; Conservation; Pest management; Exotic trees; Acer spp. (maple); Quercus spp. (oaks); Natural enemies; Native trees; Scale insects (Coccoidea)
TL;DR:
These native and exotic tree species could help conserve arthropod natural enemies and achieve pest management goals and Parasitoid communities were significantly different among Acer species and Quercus species due in each case to greater abundance of a single family on one native tree species.

Systemic distribution of medullary bone in the avian skeleton: ground truthing criteria for the identification of reproductive tissues in extinct Avemetatarsalia
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 19(1).
author keywords: Neornithes; Medullary bone skeletal distribution; Skeletal pneumaticity; Laying cycle; Micro-computed tomography; Chemical staining; Cranial medullary bone; Bone marrow; Avian ecology
MeSH headings : Animals; Birds / classification; Bone and Bones / anatomy & histology; Extinction, Biological; Female; Fossils; Phylogeny; Reproduction / physiology; Species Specificity; Tomography, X-Ray Computed
TL;DR:
Although its skeletal distribution varies interspecifically, MB is found to be a systemic tissue that can be deposited within virtually all skeletal regions, including cranial elements, and evidence that the deposition of MB is dictated by skeletal distribution patterns of both pneumaticity and bone marrow; two factors linked to ecology (body size, foraging).

Complementary roles of photoperiod and temperature in environmental sex determination in Daphnia spp.
The Journal of Experimental Biology, 222(4), jeb195289.
author keywords: Zooplankton; Endocrine cascade; Methyl farnesoate receptor; Juvenoids; Methyl farnesoate
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropod Proteins / genetics; Arthropod Proteins / metabolism; Daphnia / genetics; Daphnia / growth & development; Gene Expression Profiling; Gene Expression Regulation; Hot Temperature; Male; Photoperiod; Sex Determination Processes; Signal Transduction; Species Specificity
TL;DR:
It is indicated that male sex determination in daphnids is under the permissive control of photoperiod and the regulatory control of temperature, which may act by increasing levels of the Met subunit of the methyl farnesoate receptor.

The molecular evolution of feathers with direct evidence from fossils
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 116(8), 3018–3023.
author keywords: feather evolution; keratin expression; fossil-feather ultrastructure; dinosaur-bird transition; biomechanical properties
MeSH headings : Animals; Birds; Dinosaurs; Evolution, Molecular; Feathers / chemistry; Feathers / ultrastructure; Fossils; Keratins / chemistry; Skin / chemistry; Skin / ultrastructure; beta-Keratins / chemistry
TL;DR:
It is confirmed here that feathers were modified at both molecular and morphological levels to obtain the biomechanical properties for flight during the dinosaur–bird transition, and it is shown that the patterns and timing of adaptive change at the molecular level can be directly addressed in exceptionally preserved fossils in deep time.

Freshwater snail Parafossarulus striatulus estrogen receptor: Characteristics and expression profiles under lab and field exposure
CHEMOSPHERE, 220, 611–619.
author keywords: Freshwater snail; Endocrine disrupting chemicals; Mode of action; Estrogen receptor orthologue; RACE
MeSH headings : Animals; China; DNA, Complementary; Endocrine Disruptors / toxicity; Estradiol / pharmacology; Female; Lakes; Male; Methyltestosterone / pharmacology; Mollusca / chemistry; Receptors, Estrogen / genetics; Receptors, Estrogen / metabolism; Snails / chemistry; Transcription, Genetic; Transcriptome; Vitellogenins / genetics
TL;DR:
The estrogen receptor (ER) of the mollusk Parafossarulus striatulus was identified and partially characterised and a significant elevation in vitellogenin transcription as compared to snails held at site SZ, suggesting that viteLLogenin production may be directly regulated by psER or co-regulated with psER in this species.
