Cytological and cytochemical studies of centrifuged eggs of the slug Arion ater rufus L.
The stratification of various cell organelles and of important chemical substances have been studied in the eggs of the slug, after moderate centrifugation. As in other molluscs the egg contents stratify typically into three well-defined zones lipid, L hyaline and yolky zones but a distinct equatorial band of inclusions consisting mainly of F phagosomes and associated lysosomes was detected in ...
متن کاملMetagenomic Analysis of the Gut Microbiome of the Common Black Slug Arion ater in Search of Novel Lignocellulose Degrading Enzymes
Some eukaryotes are able to gain access to well-protected carbon sources in plant biomass by exploiting microorganisms in the environment or harbored in their digestive system. One is the land pulmonate Arion ater, which takes advantage of a gut microbial consortium that can break down the widely available, but difficult to digest, carbohydrate polymers in lignocellulose, enabling them to diges...
متن کاملCharacterization of cellulolytic activity in the gut of the terrestrial land slug Arion ater: Biochemical identification of targets for intensive study.
The level of cellulolytic activity in different areas of the gut of the terrestrial slug Arion ater was assayed at different temperatures and pH values. To do this, crude gut proteins were isolated and assayed using modified dinitrosalicylic acid reducing sugar assay. Crude protein samples were also separated and cellulolytic activity identified using in gel CMC zymography and esculin hydrate a...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of predation by carabid beetles (Carabidae) on the invasive Iberian slug Arion lusitanicus.
The invasive Iberian slug, Arion lusitanicus, is spreading through Europe and poses a major threat to horticulture and agriculture. Natural enemies, capable of killing A. lusitanicus, may be important to our understanding of its population dynamics in recently invaded regions. We used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to study predation on A. lusitanicus by carabid beetles in the field. A first m...
متن کاملA Porphyrin Pigment in the Integument of Arion a Ter (l.)
MacMunn (1886) extracted a porphyrin from the integument of the starfish Asterias rubens-then known as Uraster rubens-and he considered that this and similar pigments which he had obtained from the slug Arion empiricorum and the coelenterates Flabellum variabile and Fungia symmetrica were identical with the haematoporphyrin of Hoppe-Seyler (1871), which was then the only porphyrin known. Dhere ...
