    Sensory collectives in natural systems

    Hannah J Williams, Vivek H Sridhar ... Amanda D Melin
    A synthetic, prospective article considers how the fields of sensory ecology and collective behaviour can combine when considering animal collective movements and interactions, and how these fields can inspire each other to advance understanding of animal behaviour, adaptation and evolution.

    The roles of vision and antennal mechanoreception in hawkmoth flight control

    Ajinkya Dahake, Anna L Stöckl ... Almut Kelber
    Mechanosensors in the antennae of hawkmoths provide rapid sensory feedback for the control of fast flight manoeuvres, which acts in parallel to visual information.

    Neuropeptide ACP facilitates lipid oxidation and utilization during long-term flight in locusts

    Li Hou, Siyuan Guo ... Xianhui Wang
    CRISPR/Cas 9 technology and multiple-omics study reveal an essential regulatory role of neuropeptide ACP in lipid utilization related to prolonged flight of locusts.

    Multiple lineages of Streptomyces produce antimicrobials within passalid beetle galleries across eastern North America

    Rita de Cassia Pessotti, Bridget L Hansen ... Matthew F Traxler
    The widespread occurrence of metabolically active streptomycetes in Odontotaenius disjunctus beetle frass may insulate their galleries against pathogenic fungal invasion through the production of diverse antimicrobial specialized metabolites.

    Robust olfactory responses in the absence of odorant binding proteins

    Shuke Xiao, Jennifer S Sun, John R Carlson
    Although odorant binding proteins are widely believed to be required for transport of odorants to receptors, six types of sensilla of Drosophila respond robustly in their absence to many odor stimuli.

    Non-canonical function of an Hif-1α splice variant contributes to the sustained flight of locusts

    Ding Ding, Jie Zhang ... Le Kang
    The long-distance flight of locusts is greatly facilitated by a muscle-abundantly expressed Hif-1α splice variant, which remains active in normoxia and scavenges flight-induced reactive oxygen species by upregulating the expression of DJ-1 (PARK 7).

    The Arthropoda-specific Tramtrack group BTB protein domains use previously unknown interface to form hexamers

    Artem N Bonchuk, Konstantin I Balagurov ... Pavel G Georgiev
    The cryo-EM structure of the CG6765 BTB domain and solution scattering experiments revealed a unique three-dimer hexameric assembly for the arthropod Tramtrack group BTB domains.

    Environmental DNA from archived leaves reveals widespread temporal turnover and biotic homogenization in forest arthropod communities

    Henrik Krehenwinkel, Sven Weber ... Michael Veith
    Environmental DNA from highly standardized leaf sample time series suggests no localized species losses, but biotic turnover and homogenization, as main drivers of forest insect decline.

    Disparate expression specificities coded by a shared Hox-C enhancer

    Steve W Miller, James W Posakony
    Tucked within a well-known story of diverging gene function is a single enhancer encoding two inseparable specificities that regulates two adjacent genes, each with different spatiotemporal expression patterns.
