The fine structure and histochemistry of the fat body in the locust, Schistocerca gregaria.
A histochemical study of the fat body attached to the male accessory reproductive glands of the mature desert locust shows that most of the fat body is occupied by neutral fat and probably a little acidic lipid. The cytoplasmic strands between the enormous fat globules contain large deposits of glycogen and some protein. An electron-microscopic study of the mature fat body demonstrates that the...
متن کاملRelationships between body mass, motor output and flight variables during free flight of juvenile and mature adult locusts, Schistocerca gregaria.
Little information is available about how the adult locust flight system manages to match the aerodynamic demands that result from an increase in body mass during postmoult maturation. In Schistocerca gregaria of both sexes, flight variables, including flight speed, ascent angle and body angle, were investigated under closed-loop conditions (i.e. during free flight) as a function of adult matur...
متن کاملProtein Disturbance in the Haemolymph and Fat Body of the Desert Locust Schistocerca Gregaria as a Response to Certain Insect Growth Regulators
After treatment of the newly moulted last (5th) instar nymphs of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria with 1000.0 or 62.5 ppm of the insect growth regulators (IGRs): pyriproxyfen (juvenoid), tebofenozide (ecdysone agonist) and lufenuron (chitin synthesis inhibitor), protein content was determined in the haemolymph and fat body of nymphs and adults. An inhibitory action on haemolymph proteins...
متن کاملSusceptibility to experimental infection of the invertebrate locusts (Schistocerca gregaria) with the apicomplexan parasite Neospora caninum
Neuropathogenesis is a feature of Neospora caninum infection. In order to explore this in the absence of acquired host immunity to the parasite, we have tested infection in locusts (Schistocerca gregaria). We show for the first time that locusts are permissive to intra-hemocoel infection with N. caninum tachyzoites. This was characterized by alteration in body weight, fecal output, hemoparasite...
متن کاملThe influence of mechanical, visual and contact chemical stimulation on the behavioural phase state of solitarious desert locusts (Schistocerca gregaria).
We investigated the influence of mechanical, visual and contact chemical stimulation on behavioural gregarization of fifth-instar solitarious nymphs of the desert locust. The stimuli were applied in two 2x2 factorial experimental designs, the first with contact chemical and mechanical stimuli, and the second with contact chemical and visual stimulation. Stimulus treatments were applied for a 4-...
