Consistent Pattern of Local Adaptation during an Experimental Heat Wave in a Pipefish-Trematode Host-Parasite System
Extreme climate events such as heat waves are expected to increase in frequency under global change. As one indirect effect, they can alter magnitude and direction of species interactions, for example those between hosts and parasites. We simulated a summer heat wave to investigate how a changing environment affects the interaction between the broad-nosed pipefish (Syngnathus typhle) as a host ...
متن کاملClustered microsatellite mutations in the pipefish Syngnathus typhle.
Clustered mutations are copies of a mutant allele that enter a population's gene pool together due to replication from a premeiotic germline mutation and distribution to multiple successful gametes of an individual. Although the phenomenon has been studied in Drosophila and noted in a few other species, the topic has received scant attention despite claims of being of major importance to popula...
متن کاملBacteria‐type‐specific biparental immune priming in the pipefish Syngnathus typhle
The transfer of immunity from parents to offspring (trans-generational immune priming (TGIP)) boosts offspring immune defence and parasite resistance. TGIP is usually a maternal trait. However, if fathers have a physical connection to their offspring, and if offspring are born in the paternal parasitic environment, evolution of paternal TGIP can become adaptive. In Syngnathus typhle, a sex-role...
متن کاملCoevolutionary arms race versus host defense chase in a tropical herbivore-plant system.
Coevolutionary models suggest that herbivores drive diversification and community composition in plants. For herbivores, many questions remain regarding how plant defenses shape host choice and community structure. We addressed these questions using the tree genus Inga and its lepidopteran herbivores in the Amazon. We constructed phylogenies for both plants and insects and quantified host assoc...
متن کاملEvidence of paternal nutrient provisioning to embryos in broad-nosed pipefish Syngnathus typhle.
In two experiments, radioactively labelled nutrients (either (3)H-labelled amino-acid mixture or (14)C-labelled glucose) were tube-fed to brooding male Syngnathus typhle. Both nutrients were taken up by the males and radioactivity generally increased in the brood pouch tissue with time. Furthermore, a low but significant increase of (3)H-labelled amino acids in embryos was found over the experi...
