Early Environmental Conditions Shape Personality Types in a Jumping Spider
Individuals of many species across the animal kingdom are found to be less plastic than expected, even in behavioral traits. The existence of consistent behavioral differences between individuals, termed “personality differences”, is puzzling, since plastic behavior is considered ideal to enable animals to adaptively respond to changes in environmental conditions. In order to elucidate which me...
متن کاملConjugal Transfer of the Pathogenicity Island ROD21 in Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis Depends on Environmental Conditions
Unstable pathogenicity islands are chromosomal elements that can be transferred from one bacterium to another. Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) is a pathogenic bacterium containing such unstable pathogenicity islands. One of them, denominated ROD21, is 26.5 kb in size and capable of excising from the chromosome in certain culture conditions, as well as during bacterial i...
متن کاملImmune competence in insect eggs depends on the extraembryonic serosa.
Innate immunity is common to all metazoans and serves as a first line of defense against pathogens. Although the immune response of adult and larval insects has been well characterized, it remains unknown whether the insect egg is able to mount an immune response. Contrary to Drosophila, Tribolium eggs develop an extraembryonic epithelium, the serosa. Epithelia are well known for their ability ...
متن کاملEffect of prey personality depends on predator species
The ability of prey to respond to predators is especially important in human-altered habitats, where prey are faced with changing predator regimes. A growing body of research has shown the important ecological impacts of intraspecific, individual differences in behavior, but few studies have shown direct fitness consequences of behavioral types in a predation context. We examined behavioral syn...
