Telomeres and Life Histories; Where Are We Now and Where Are We Going
Meeting Abstract 39-5 Friday, Jan. 6 09:00 – 09:15 Telomeres and Life Histories; Where Are We Now and Where Are We Going? VERHULST, S; University of Groningen, the Netherlands s.verhulst@rug.nl http://www.rug.nl/research/gelifes/bpe/verhulst/ Understanding the biological pathways causing life-history trade-offs is a challenge of major importance, because it concerns all life including humans. Telomere length potentially provides a unifying […]
New insights on the roles of juvenile hormone, ecdysteroids and insulin-like peptides as regulators of wing polymorphism
Meeting Abstract 39-2 Friday, Jan. 6 08:15 – 08:30 New insights on the roles of juvenile hormone, ecdysteroids and insulin-like peptides as regulators of wing polymorphism ZERA, AJ; University of Nebraska azera1@unl.edu Juvenile hormone (JH) has been a major focus of studies investigating the endocrine regulation of wing-polymorphism. The most general model postulates a single threshold, above […]
