• Expression of honey bee (Apis mellifera) sterol homeostasis genes in food jelly producing glands of workers 

  Yusuf, Abdullahi Ahmed; Pirk, Christian Walter Werner; Buttstedt, Anja (Wiley, 2024-06)

  Adult workers of Western honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) acquire sterols from their pollen diet. These food sterols are transported by the hemolymph to peripheral tissues such as the mandibular and the hypopharyngeal ...

  Foyer, Christine H.; Kunert, Karl J. (Oxford University Press, 2024-05-03)

  Concepts regarding the operation of the ascorbate–glutathione cycle and the associated water/water cycle in the processing of metabolically generated hydrogen peroxide and other forms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) ...
• The challenges, opportunities and future of comparative physiology in the Global South : perspectives of early-career researchers 

  Bars-Closel, Melissa; Capparelli, Mariana V.; Conradie, Shannon R.; Diele-Viegas, Luisa Maria; Donaldson, Ashleigh C.; Kosmala, Georgia K.; Madelaire, Carla B.; De Mello, Daniela M.D.; Majelantle, Tshepiso L.; Martins, Mariana F.; Moreira, Daniel C.; Ngcamphalala, Celiwe A.; Noakes, Matthew J.; Shankar, Anusha; Webster, A.B. (Andrea) (Company of Biologists, 2024-10)

• Light sensitivity of the circadian system in the social highveld mole-rat Cryptomys hottentotus pretoriae 

  Chanel, Pauline N.C.; Bennett, Nigel Charles; Oosthuizen, Maria Kathleen (Company of Biologists, 2024-09)

  Highveld mole-rats (Cryptomys hottentotus pretoriae) are social rodents that inhabit networks of subterranean tunnels. In their natural environment, they are rarely exposed to light, and consequently their visual systems ...
• Evolutionary shifts in the thermal biology of a subterranean mammal : the effect of habitat aridity 

  Merchant, Hana N.; Hart, Daniel William; Bennett, Nigel Charles; Janse van Vuuren, Andries Koch; Freeman, Marc Trevor; McKechnie, Andrew E.; Faulkes, Chris G.; Mordaunt, Nathan D.; Portugal, Steven J. (Company of Biologists, 2024-12)

  Subterranean mammals representing a single subspecies occurring along an aridity gradient provide an appropriate model for investigating adaptive variation in thermal physiology with varying levels of precipitation and ...
