Tabuloc et al. show that the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii, resistant to multiple insecticides, exhibits aberrant splicing in many classes of genes, including general stress response and insecticide resistance genes. 🔗 academic.oup.com/gbe/article/... #societyjournal #genome #evolution #pest

Changes in Alternative Splicing are Associated with Insecticide Response and Resistance
Abstract. Alternative splicing (AS) promotes phenotypic plasticity to adverse conditions by altering the transcripts of genes directly involved in adaptati

Circadian clocks are universally self-sustained oscillators Annually changing daylength is sufficient to select for self-sustained oscillators Entrainment properties (i.e. “type 0” vs. “type 1” resetting) affect fitness Both daily and annual environmental cycles molded the properties of daily clocks
