Fatty Acid Composition of Eggs during Development of the Cotton Leaf-Worm, Spodoptera littoralis Boisduval
Gas-liquid chromatographic analysis of egg lipids during development of Spodoptera littoralis showed the presence of 13 fatty acids ranging in carbon chain length from caproic (C6:0) to linolenic acid (C 18:3). Palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic and linoleic acids composed over 90% of the total fatty acids. Palmitic acid was always the predominant fatty acid and oleic acid was the second mos...
متن کاملIntroducing Worm
In 1963 Sydney Brenner proposed to study the development of multi-cellular organisms using a genetic approach in a simple animal. He settled on a small, transparent nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, which develops quickly and is anatomically simple with less than a thousand somatic cells. Almost half a century later there are many more researchers studying C. elegans than there are somatic cell...
متن کاملWorm sensation!
Mechanosensation plays a pivotal role in many aspects of pain pathology, yet the mammalian molecular transduction apparatus responsible for this sensory modality remains unknown. In January's edition of Nature Neuroscience, O'Hagan, Chalfie and Goodman [1] have provided direct electrophysiological evidence that somatic mechanotransduction in C. elegans is mediated by a complex of proteins previ...
متن کاملErratum: Development of insect resistant maize plants expressing a chitinase gene from the cotton leaf worm, Spodoptera littoralis
Due to the importance of chitinolytic enzymes for insect, nematode and fungal growth, they are receiving attention concerning their development as biopesticides or chemical defense proteins in transgenic plants and as microbial biocontrol agents. Targeting chitin associated with the extracellular matrices or cell wall by insect chitinases may be an effective approach for controlling pest insect...
متن کاملOn the fate of methanol and ethanol in the adult larva of the cotton leaf worm (Prodenia litura F).
The metabolic fate of C-methanol and l-C-ethanol in the adult larva of Prodenia litura has been investigated in vivo. Following the intersegmental injection of C-methanol (1.2 mg/g. insect), about 70% of the radioactivity was recovered as C02 in the expired air, after 20 hours. Also, about one fourth of the administered dose was recovered as unchanged methanol, during the first six hours. Only ...
