Metamorphosis of a Butterfly-Associated Bacterial Community
Butterflies are charismatic insects that have long been a focus of biological research. They are also habitats for microorganisms, yet these microbial symbionts are little-studied, despite their likely importance to butterfly ecology and evolution. In particular, the diversity and composition of the microbial communities inhabiting adult butterflies remain uncharacterized, and it is unknown how...
متن کاملDynamic mechanical oscillations during metamorphosis of the monarch butterfly.
The mechanical oscillation of the heart is fundamental during insect metamorphosis, but it is unclear how morphological changes affect its mechanical dynamics. Here, the micromechanical heartbeat with the monarch chrysalis (Danaus plexippus) during metamorphosis is compared with the structural changes observed through in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We employ a novel ultra-sensitive d...
متن کاملBacterial Pathogens Associated with Community acquired Pneumonia.
2. The use of oropharyngeal aspirate as the sample for isolation of bacterial pathogens associated with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) raises many questions. This is again highlighted by the isolation of organism like Acinetobacter and Citrobacter species from CAP cases. The value of isolating bacterial organisms that are frequently detected in the upper airways of children (eg, Streptococc...
متن کاملSea urchin larvae decipher the epiphytic bacterial community composition when selecting sites for attachment and metamorphosis.
Most marine invertebrates have dispersive larvae and relatively immobile adults. These developmental stages are linked by a settlement event, which is often mediated by specific cues in bacterial biofilms. While larvae distinguish between biofilms from different environments, it remains unknown if they receive information from all, only a few or even just a single bacterial species in natural b...
