To tread or not to tread: comparison between water treading and conventional flapping wing kinematics

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Alexander Gehrke, Swathi Badala Krishna

Hovering insects are limited by their physiology and need to rotate their wings at the end of each back-and-forth motion to keep the wing's leading edge ahead of its trailing edge. The wing rotation at the end of each half-stroke pushes the leading edge vo ...

Mechanotaxis directs Pseudomonas aeruginosa twitching motility

Alexandre Louis André Persat, Lorenzo Anton-Louis Talà, Xavier Jean-Yves Pierrat, Jose Negrete Jr, Joanne Netter Engel, Marco Julian Kühn

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa explores surfaces using twitching motility powered by retractile extracellu-lar filaments called type IV pili (T4P). Single cells twitch by sequen-tial T4P extension, attachment, and retraction. How single ...

Drosophila melanogaster cloak their eggs with pheromones, which prevents cannibalism

Yury Tsybin, Laure Menin, Konstantin Nagornov

Oviparous animals across many taxa have evolved diverse strategies that deter egg predation, providing valuable tests of how natural selection mitigates direct fitness loss. Communal egg laying in nonsocial species minimizes egg predation. However, in cann ...

Genetic Determinism vs. Phenotypic Plasticity in Protist Morphology

Edward Mitchell, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Enrique Lara

Untangling the relationships between morphology and phylogeny is key to building a reliable taxonomy, but is especially challenging for protists, where the existence of cryptic or pseudocryptic species makes finding relevant discriminant traits difficult. ...

Division site selection linked to inherited cell surface wave troughs in mycobacteria

Georg Fantner, John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Pascal Damian Odermatt, Haig Alexander Eskandarian, Mélanie Thérèse Marie Hannebelle, Joëlle Xiao Yuan Ven

Cell division is tightly controlled in space and time to maintain cell size and ploidy within narrow bounds. In bacteria, the canonical Minicell (Min) and nucleoid occlusion (Noc) systems together ensure that division is restricted to midcell after complet ...

A Drone with Insect-Inspired Folding Wings

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Kevin Nicholas Cradock Owen

Flying robots are increasingly adopted in search and rescue missions because of their capability to quickly collect and stream information from remote and dangerous areas. To further enhance their use, we are investigating the development of a new class of ...

The effect of the phase angle between the forewing and hindwing on the aerodynamic performance of a dragonfly-type ornithopter

Jamie Paik, Alice Ghislaine Concordel

Dragonflies achieve agile maneuverability by flapping four wings independently. Different phase angles between the flapping forewing and hindwing have been observed during various flight modes. The aerodynamic performance depends on phase angle control, as ...

Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Adult Midgut Compartmentalization in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Bart Deplancke, Jean Philippe Boquete, Dani Osman

Although the gut is a central organ of Eumetazoans and is essential for organismal health, our understanding of its morphological and molecular determinants remains rudimentary. Here, we provide a comprehensive atlas of Drosophila adult midgut. Specificall ...
