Oviposition by pierid butterflies triggers defense responses in Arabidopsis.
Insect eggs represent a threat for the plant as hatching larvae rapidly start with their feeding activity. Using a whole-genome microarray, we studied the expression profile of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) leaves after oviposition by two pierid butterflies. For Pieris brassicae, the deposition of egg batches changed the expression of hundreds of genes over a period of 3 d after ovipositio...
متن کاملChemosensory basis of host recognition in butterflies--multi-component system of oviposition stimulants and deterrents.
Larvae of most butterfly species feed on a limited number of host species belonging to a single plant family. The choice of host plants is determined both at the egg-laying and larval-feeding stages (Schoonhoven et al., 1998). The choice of oviposition site by an adult female is crucial to the survival of their offspring, and thus the mother butterflies lay their eggs with great precision on th...
متن کاملEgg size-number trade-off and a decline in oviposition site choice quality: Female Pararge aegeria butterflies pay a cost of having males present at oviposition
Once mated, the optimal strategy for females of the monandrous butterfly, Pararge aegeria, is to avoid male contact and devote as much time as possible to ovipositing, as there is little advantage for females to engage in multiple matings. In other butterfly species the presence of males during egg laying has been shown to affect aspects of oviposition behavior and it has been suggested that re...
متن کاملOviposition preference of cabbage white butterflies in the framework of costs and benefits of interspecific herbivore associations
When deciding where to oviposit, herbivorous insects consider: (i) the plant's value as a food source, (ii) the risks of competing with con- and heterospecific herbivores, and (iii) the risks of parasitism and predation on the host plant. The presence of con- and/or heterospecific competitors would further affect the oviposition preference, because the preceding herbivores induce direct/indirec...
متن کاملIrreversible Dynamos in Butterflies
We study the propagation of information in a network in the presence of permanent faults, to detect the patterns of initial faults which may lead the entire system to fail. Such patterns, called dynamos, have been already studied in diierent contexts and topologies, and under diierent laws of fault propagation. In our model each node assumes a new state according to the majority of the states o...
