Hydrolytic enzymes and their directly and indirectly effects on gluten and dough properties: An extensive review. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr, 2021
The present review investigates the effects of some hydrolytic enzymes (protease and peptidase, alcalase, xylanase, pentosanase, and cellulase) on the rheological, functional, conformational, and nutritional features of gluten and dough. Overall, protease, peptidase, and alcalase directly affect peptide bonds in gluten.

Antibodies raised against a Sunn bug (Eurygaster integriceps Put.) recombinant protease, rGHP3p2, can inhibit gluten-hydrolyzing activity. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr, 2020
Sunn pest or Sunn bug salivary gland proteases are responsible for the deterioration of wheat flour quality during dough mixing, resulting from gluten hydrolysis. The present study describes the generation of a specific peptide antibody, raised against the active center of the recombinant gluten‐hydrolyzing protease (GHP3).

Limited sex differences in plastic responses suggest evolutionary conservatism of thermal reaction norms: A meta‐analysis in insects

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 394-411, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Temperature has a profound effect on the growth and development of ectothermic animals. However, the extent to which ecologically driven selection pressures can adjust thermal plastic responses in growth schedules is not well understood. Comparing temperature‐induced plastic responses between sexes provides a promising but underexploited ...

Benefits and costs of hosting facultative symbionts in plant‐sucking insects: A meta‐analysis

Molecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 11, Page 2483-2494, June 2021., 2021
Abstract Many animals have evolved associations with symbiotic microbes that benefit the host through increased growth, lifespan, and survival. Some interactions are obligate (essential for survival) while others are facultative (usually beneficial but not essential). Not all individuals host all facultative symbionts in a population, and thus there is

Morphological structure of salivary glands, alimentary canal, and Malpighian tubules in adult Eurydema spectabilis Horváth, 1882 (Heteroptera, Pentatomidae). [PDF]

Microsc Res Tech
In E. spectabilis, the salivary glands are divided into principal and accessory glands. Microvilli and numerous secretory granules were found in Malpighian tubules. Numerous uric acid crystals and bacteria were found in the rectum lumen. Abstract Eurydema spectabilis (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) has a piercing‐sucking mouth type and feeds on plant sap ...

Aboveground phytochemical responses to belowground herbivory in poplar trees and the consequence for leaf herbivore preference

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 3293-3307, December 2019., 2019
Abstract Belowground (BG) herbivory can influence aboveground (AG) herbivore performance and food preference via changes in plant chemistry. Most evidence for this phenomenon derives from studies in herbaceous plants but studies in woody plants are scarce.
