  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Structure of the thoracic spiracular valves and their contribution to unidirectional gas exchange in flying blowflies Calliphora vicina
    Lutz T. Wasserthal, Anja S. Fröhlich
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 208-219; doi: 10.1242/jeb.149013

    Summary: External filter flaps and inner valves support a respiratory airflow through the thorax in flying blowflies by opening the valve flaps during wing upstroke and keeping the inner openings narrow.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Discontinuous gas-exchange cycle characteristics are differentially affected by hydration state and energy metabolism in gregarious and solitary desert locusts
    Stav Talal, Amir Ayali, Eran Gefen
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 3807-3815; doi: 10.1242/jeb.126490

    Summary: This study shows that haemolymph loss and energy metabolism combine to affect the ability of insects to maintain discontinuous gas exchange cycles under stressful conditions.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Flight-motor-driven respiratory airflow increases tracheal oxygen to nearly atmospheric level in blowflies (Calliphora vicina)
    Lutz T. Wasserthal
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 2201-2210; doi: 10.1242/jeb.121061

    Highlighted Article: Blowflies increase their tracheal oxygen concentration during flight above the resting level by a unidirectional autoventilatory airflow.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Periodic heartbeat reversals cause cardiogenic inspiration and expiration with coupled spiracle leakage in resting blowflies, Calliphora vicina
    Lutz T. Wasserthal
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 1543-1554; doi: 10.1242/jeb.097238
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Ammonium secretion by Malpighian tubules of Drosophila melanogaster: application of a novel ammonium-selective microelectrode
    Austin Browne, Michael J. O'Donnell
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 3818-3827; doi: 10.1242/jeb.091082
