The role of a novel Wolbachia (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) synthetic peptide, WolFar, in regulating prostaglandin levels in the hemolymph of Acheta domesticus (Orthoptera: Gryllidae)

tailieu.vn

Physical barriers include structures such as cuticle-protecting epidermis, peritrophic matrix- covering midgut lumen, and chitin lining of the tracheal system (Wigglesworth, 1972. As for cellular immune response, cellular actions—such as microaggregation of pathogens, followed by encapsulation and then nodulation—are controlled and signaled by prostaglandins (PGs) (Stanley and Kim, 2011) and other eicosanoids (Büyükgüzel et al., 2007). One of the possible...

Diel and seasonal activity of ground dwelling spiders (Araneae) in a sandy grassland habitat

tailieu.vn

Diel and seasonal activity of ground dwelling spiders (Araneae) in a sandy grassland habitat. In the course of evolution, organisms have evolved in terms of a variety of diel and seasonal rhythms, synchronizing their vital functions with the cyclic changes in their habitat, in its temperature, and in the amount of light it receives (Bell-Pedersen et al., 2005). Diel activity...

Habitat structure and host plant specialization drive taxonomic andfunctional composition of Heteroptera in postfire successional habitats

tailieu.vn

Fire is a common disturbance in many regions and a key component to understanding ecosystem functioning (Bond et al., 2005). The number and extent of wildfires have increased in recent decades, and this pattern is expected to continue due to current warming (Moriondo et al., 2006) and land abandonment (Chergui et al., 2017).. Several studies have argued that fire can...
