Functional morphology of antennae and sensilla of the fungivore beetle, Triplax ainonia Lewis (Coleoptera: Erotylidae).

The antennal sensilla play an important role in many behavioral activities of insects. The fungivorous beetle Triplax ainonia Lewis (Erotylidae) is an important pest which prefers to feed on Pleurotus mushrooms. In order to clarify the types, number, and distribution of the antennal sensilla of male and female T.

macJNet: weakly-supervised multimodal image deformable registration using joint learning framework and multi-sampling cascaded MIND.

Deformable multimodal image registration plays a key role in medical image analysis. It remains a challenge to find accurate dense correspondences between multimodal images due to the significant intensity distortion and the large deformation. macJNet is proposed to align the multimodal medical images, which is a weakly-supervised multimodal image deformable registration method using a joint learning framework and multi-sampling cascaded modality independent neighborhood descriptor (macMIND).

Description of a new species of the subgenus Tachycines (Tachycines) (Rhaphidophoridae: Aemodogryllinae: Aemodogryllini) from Guizhou, China.

In this study, we identify and describe a new species of the subgenus Tachycines (Tachycines), namely Tachycines (Tachycines) nigrocorporis sp. nov., which was collected from Guizhou Province, China, bringing the species number of this subgenus to twenty-two.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Lewis, 1877 (Coleoptera: Erotylidae).

The beetle Lewis, 1877 is a serious pest of cultivated the mushroom in China. The complete mitochondrial genome of this species was reported for the first time in this study. The mitogenome was 17,555 bp in length and had a base composition of 39.

may act in the auxin pathway to regulate fruit shape in grape.

Fruit shape is an essential agronomic feature in many crops. We identified and functionally characterized an auxin pathway-related gene, . , which belongs to the () family, localizes to the plasma membrane and chloroplast and may be involved in controlling fruit shape through auxin.
