MicroRNA-276 promotes egg-hatching synchrony by up-regulating <i>brm</i> in locusts
4 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
Developmental synchrony, the basis of uniform swarming, migration, and sexual maturation, is an important strategy for social animals to adapt to variable environments. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying developmental synchrony are largely unexplored. The migratory locust exhibits polyphenism between gregarious and solitarious individuals, with the former displaying more synchronous sexual maturation...
