- Diapause research in insects: historical review and recent work perspectives (2019, background): “In insects, neural mechanisms associated with the detection of photoperiodism could be involved in measuring the amount of time elapsed since the onset of diapause (Saunders, 2012).”
- Phototactic behavioral response of agricultural insects and stored-product insects to light-emitting diodes (LEDs) (2017, background): “The start of resting can be prevented by repeatedly exposing insects to light sources for some days [28].”
- Is light pollution driving moth population declines? A review of causal mechanisms across the life cycle (2020, background): “…have revealed that photoreceptors in the brain are responsible for diapause regulation in the larvae of a hawkmoth and silkmoth (Bowen et al., 1984; Hasegawa & Shimizu, 1987), and it is thought that red wavelengths of light are most important for the regulation of diapause (Saunders, 2012).”
- Insect photoperiodism: effects of temperature on the induction of insect diapause and diverse roles for the circadian system in the photoperiodic response (2014, methodology): “…that, after a photophase of about 12 h or more, the oscillator is reset to a constant phase equivalent to the start of the subjective night, defined as Circadian time, CT 12 (Pittendrigh 1966; Saunders 2012, 2013) whereupon it is in a position to “measure” the duration of the following dark hours.”
- Light pollution is a driver of insect declines (2020, background): “…and has the least suppressive effect on melatonin production (Dauchy et al., 2016; Do et al., 2009; Russart and Nelson, 2018b), which may reduce impacts on insect physiology and development (Desouhant et al., 2019; Do et al., 2009; Jones et al., 2015; Russart and Nelson, 2018b; Saunders, 2012).”
