Plant microRNAs in larval food regulate honeybee caste development
The major environmental determinants of honeybee caste development come from larval nutrients: royal jelly stimulates the differentiation of larvae into queens, whereas beebread leads to worker bee fate. However, these determinants are not fully characterized. Here we report that plant RNAs, particularly miRNAs, which are more enriched in beebread than in royal jelly, delay development and decr...
متن کاملExtensive oscillatory gene expression during C. elegans larval development.
Oscillations are a key to achieving dynamic behavior and thus occur in biological systems as diverse as the beating heart, defecating worms, and nascent somites. Here we report pervasive, large-amplitude, and phase-locked oscillations of gene expression in developing C. elegans larvae, caused by periodic transcription. Nearly one fifth of detectably expressed transcripts oscillate with an 8 hr ...
متن کاملExpression of growth hormone gene during early development of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii)
The mRNA expression of growth hormone (GH) gene in early development stages of Siberian sturgeon was investigated using RT-PCR method. Samples were collected from unfertilized eggs up to 50 days post hatched (dph) larvae in 11 different times. Ribosomal protein L6 (RPL6) transcripts were used as the internal standard during quantification of GH mRNA expression. The results showed that the GH mR...
متن کاملNutritionally Driven Differential Gene Expression Leads to Heterochronic Brain Development in Honeybee Castes
The differential feeding regimes experienced by the queen and worker larvae of the honeybee Apis mellifera shape a complex endocrine response cascade that ultimately gives rise to differences in brain morphologies. Brain development analyzed at the morphological level from the third (L3) through fifth (L5) larval instars revealed an asynchrony between queens and workers. In the feeding phase of...
متن کاملProbing the program of gene expression utilized in early development.
Somatic cell nuclei injected into amphibian oocytes enlarge, exchange protein with the surrounding cytoplasm, and actively synthesize RNA for weeks. The message activity of the RNAs synthesized within the oocytes can be detected as new proteins made a few days after the injection of somatic nucleic. The oocyte cytoplasm seems to reprogram the injected nuclei, allowing the expression only of tho...
