J. Econ. Entomol. 85(4): 1507-1515 (1992) ABSTRACT Resistance in certain genotypes of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., has been shown to adversely affect insect behavior and development in laboratory feeding experiments involving excised leaf material. This study investigated effects of resistance in various developmental stages of intact soybean plants on feeding behavior and physiology of cor...

1. The early effects of a moderate polyunsaturated fat diet on the composition of circulating lipoproteins and adipose tissue fatty acids were measured in five healthy adults. 2. The fatty acid content and gross composition of the three major plasma lipoprotein fractions altered within 7 d of treatment. The response of depot fat was slower but did show a significant and progressive change after...

Background: Though many guidelines about nutritional support, there are still dispute about permissive underfeeding, especially when the protein supply was enough. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare underfeeding with standard feeding on the clinical outcome of ICU patients. Methods: Data from the MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane database, Web of Science and https://clinicalt...

Sequential feeding programs (Seq) of 2 feeds, 1 protein rich-energy poor and 1 energy rich-protein poor, during the same day or every other day were compared with a control complete diet for male broiler growth and body composition from 15 d to market weight. In experiment 1, BW gain and breast meat yield were significantly lower than those of controls for 24-h-cycle Seq with extreme protein co...

background: children with cleft lip and palate generally suffer from inappropriate and inadequate feeding, resulting in insufficient weight gain leading to malnutrition and poor growth. we aimed to evaluate the nutritional and growth status of cleft lip and palate children before and after reconstructive cleft lip and palate surgery. methods: all cleft lip and palate children aging from birth u...

objectives: feeding is an essential function which affects quality of life of the intellectually disabled (id) persons. approximately 80% of the severe and profound mentally retarded population have some feeding difficulties. this study aimed to determine the prevalence of feeding problems in children with id. methods: in this cross-sectional descriptive study, 144 individuals with intellectual...

introduction: the incidence of malnutrition in hospitalized patients is reported to be high. in particular, patients with esophageal cancer are prone to malnutrition, due to preoperative digestive system dysfunctions and short-term non-oral feeding postoperatively. selection of an appropriate method for feeding in the postoperative period is important in these patients.   materials and methods:...

Many behavioral activities of the horseshoe crab Limulus are rhythmic, and most of these are produced in large part by central pattern generators within the CNS. The chain of opisthosomal (‘abdominal’) ganglia controls gill movements of ventilation and gill cleaning, and the prosomal ring of fused ganglia (brain and segmental ‘thoracic’ ganglia) controls generation of feeding and locomotor move...

The tomato-potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) (Hemiptera: Triozidae) is a pest of many solanaceous plants, including tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). In tomato, feeding by nymphs is associated with "psyllid yellows." B. cockerelli also vectors "Candidatus Liberibacter psyllaurous," an infectious bacterium that causes "vein greening" disease. Decision...
