Evolution of detoxification gene families in insects
Plants and insects are coevolving for over 400 million years (Jensen et al., 2011; Kant et al., 2015). This evolutionary interaction is generally believed to be responsible for the wide scope of plant defense mechanisms and the ad ...

Embryogenesis of Odonata
Odonates (dragonflies and damselflies) have become prominent model systems to study the influence of temperature and photoperiod on insect development and ecology in general. The majority of the studies are covering juvenile state ...

Expression analysis of wing-regulatory genes in Odonata
The wing is a key innovation that evolved once in the evolutionary history of insects, leading to a major radiation and species richness we observe today. Nevertheless, the origin of insect wings remains elusive due to the absence ...

Isolating mitomic exons from Pelargonium (Geraniaceae).
Plant mitochondria are exceptionally understudied and their sequence evolution is not well-understood. Mitochondria in genus Pelargonium (the garden geranium) display a number of traits that set them apart from other plants specie ...

Historic reconstruction of 17th century import of Pelargonium specimens.
Because of their medicinal properties (known from extensive folklore) it was that pelargoniums were first imported to Europe from South Africa. These first Pelargoniums were taken aboard ships of the Dutch East India Company in th ...
