| Justification | G. bimaculatus is an important model organism for neuroethologists (e.g. Ron Hoy, G. Pollack), insect endocrinologists (M. Lorenz, J. Woodring) and behavioural ecologists (A. Jacot). Having molecular tools would enhance studies such as research on sensory processing in central nervous systems. |
