Coevolution of Rhagoletis hosts and their parasitic wasps
iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to my advisor, Andrew Forbes, whose encouragement and support over the years has been invaluable. I wish to thank my committee, for their guidance, support and feedback. A special thanks goes to my lab-mates Amanda Nelson, Alaine Hippee, Kristina Ottens and Eric Tvedte for driving me crazy while keeping me sane over the past five years. Thank you to Eil...
متن کاملOptimal Time Allocation in Parasitic Wasps Searching for Hosts and Food
Many species of parasitic wasp feed on sugar sources such as nectar and honeydew in order to replenish their energy reserves and so extend their life expectancy, which is often correlated with higher reproductive success. Recent research suggests that carbohydrates are also a key component in flight fuel in such insects. The importance of sugar in fuelling locomotion suggests location of sugar-...
متن کاملThree new species of reared parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Microgastrinae) from India.
Three new species of parasitic wasps (Braconidae: Microgastrinae) from southern India are described and illustrated. Glyptapanteles clanisae sp. nov., a remarkable gregarious endoparasitoid, was bred from the caterpillar of Clanis phalaris Cramer (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) on the host plant Pongamia pinnata (L.) (Leguminosae) along with a hyperparasitoid, Eurytoma sp. (Eurytomidae). Glyptapantel...
متن کاملFeeding behaviour of artificially reared Romane lambs
A consequence of increasing litter size in sheep is that a portion of the lambs have to be reared artificially. Detailed information about the pattern of milk consumption of artificially reared lambs would help improve their management. The purpose of this study is to describe the individual and group feeding behaviour of 94 Romane artificially reared lambs from 5 to 28 days of age using an ele...
متن کاملThe colostrum-deprived, artificially-reared, neonatal pig as a model animal for studying rotavirus gastroenteritis.
Rotavirus gastroenteritis is one of the main causes of acute diarrhea in young humans and animals worldwide. The colostrum-deprived, artificially-reared, neonatal pig has been extensively used in our laboratory as a model animal for studying an experimentally-induced rotaviral gastroenteritis. Details on procurement of newborn pigs, immunological characteristics and artificial rearing condition...
