“…Apart from the focus on the Tenebrionidae from the Atacama Desert, we found a striking synapomorphy grouping Alleculinae, Blaptinae, Diaperinae, Stenochinae, and several taxa of Tenebrioninae, but not Tenebrio and Tribolium. This character, an insertion in the myosuppressin gene, defines a higher-level monophyletic group within the Tenebrionidae. …”

“…INTRODUCTION: In an effort to minimize the usage of fishmeal in aquaculture, novel protein diets, including Tenebrio molitor, cottonseed protein concentrate, Clostridium autoethanogenum, and Chlorella vulgaris were evaluated for their potential to replace fishmeal. …”

“…Finally, we evaluated the effectiveness of coated AK beads in a bioassay against Tenebrio molitor larvae. The blastospore release rate quadrupled within the first 5 min with decreasing molecular weight and degree of hydrolysis, with PVA 4-88 releasing 79 ± 19% blastospores. …”

“…BACKGROUND: Larvae of the tenebrionids Tenebrio molitor and Tribolium castaneum have highly compartmentalized guts, with primarily cysteine peptidases in the acidic anterior midgut that contribute to the early stages of protein digestion. …”

“…Next, the properties of selected compounds were analysed in cardiotropic bioassays in the Tenebrio molitor heart. RESULTS: The venom of N. fodiens caused a high decrease in the conduction velocity of the frog sciatic nerve, as well as a significant decrease in the force of frog calf muscle contraction. …”

Larvae of Tenebrio molitor were infected with Cryptococcus strains, and the effects of acetate fraction of P. granatum extract and fluconazole on the survival and fungal burden were determined. …”
