Drosophila Cuticular Hydrocarbons Revisited: Mating Status Alters Cuticular Profiles
Most living organisms use pheromones for inter-individual communication. In Drosophila melanogaster flies, several pheromones perceived either by contact/at a short distance (cuticular hydrocarbons, CHs), or at a longer distance (cis-vaccenyl acetate, cVA), affect courtship and mating behaviours. However, it has not previously been possible to precisely identify all potential pheromonal compoun...
متن کاملRelapsing Fever Spirochete in Seabird Tick, Japan
Phylogenetic analysis based on A) the 16S ribosomal RNA gene (16SrRNA) and B) flagellin gene of Borrelia spp. Representative Borrelia spp. were used. GenBank accession numbers are in parentheses. For the amplification and direct sequencing of 16SrRNA, the 4 PCR primers rrs-F1 (5′-ATAACGAAGAGTTTGATCCTGGCT-3′), rrs-F2 (5′-GGTGTAAGGGTGGAATCTGTTG-3′), rrs-R3 (5′-TTTCGTGACTCAGCGTCAGT-3′), and rrs-R4...
متن کاملAdaptive dynamics of cuticular hydrocarbons in Drosophila.
Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are hydrophobic compounds deposited on the arthropod cuticle that are of functional significance with respect to stress tolerance, social interactions and mating dynamics. We characterized CHC profiles in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster at five levels: across a latitudinal transect in the eastern United States, as a function of developmental temperat...
متن کاملCuticular plasticization in the tick, Amblyomma hebraeum (Acari: Ixodidae): possible roles of monoamines and cuticular pH.
The degree of plasticization of the alloscutal cuticle of a 'hard' (ixodid) tick, Amblyomma hebraeum, and a 'soft' (argasid) tick, Ornithodoros moubata, was assessed throughout the blood-feeding period. Cuticle viscosity was calculated from rate of creep of cuticle under constant load using a Maxwell model. Feeding-related plasticization (i.e. increased rate of extension under a constant load) ...
متن کاملLearning and discrimination of cuticular hydrocarbons in a social insect.
Social insect cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) mixtures are among the most complex chemical cues known and are important in nest-mate, caste and species recognition. Despite our growing knowledge of the nature of these cues, we have very little insight into how social insects actually perceive and discriminate among these chemicals. In this study, we use the newly developed technique of differential...
