This project uses the linden bug as a model to study the genetic and molecular basis of photoperiodic timing in insects. It aims to uncover how these organisms adapt to seasonal changes, which could have implications for pest control strategies.
Daylength measuring devices such as the photoperiodic timer enable animals to anticipate and thus survive adverse seasons.
This ability has contributed to the great success of insects living in temperate regions.
Yet the basis of photoperiodic sensing remains elusive, because of the lack of suitable genetic models expressing photoperiod-dependent seasonal phenotypes.
We have developed the linden bug, Pyrrhocoris apterus, into a genetically tractable model with a robust, photoperiod-dependent rep…
