Host Fish Suitability for Glochidia of Ligumia recta
The American Midland Naturalist, 2000Abstract In the early 1900s several hosts were identified for the black sandshell Ligumia recta. Recent attempts to propagate juvenile L. recta with two of the reported hosts (bluegill Lepomis macrochirus and largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides) have produced inconsistent results and few juveniles.

The previous chapter has dealt with host plant finding and assessing. Here I will concentrate on the suitability of plants for the growth of phytophagous insects. The various plant characteristics, insect characteristics, and environmental factors influencing post-ingestive suitability for the growth of immature insects has been reviewed recently ...

Many trematodes infect a single mollusk species as their first intermediate host, and then infect a variety of second intermediate host species. Determining the factors that shape host specificity is an important step towards understanding trematode infection dynamics.

ABSTRACTAs climbing plants lack the capacity to hold themselves upright, they need to encounter a suitable host. Vines, lianas, and secondary hemiepiphytes need, therefore, an effective searching strategy. Various hypotheses have been put forward on searching strategies, including ‘skototropism’—growth toward darkness—and random searching.

Host‐finding behavior, host acceptance, and host suitability of the parasite Xanthopimpla stemmator
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1994AbstractXanthopimpla stemmator (Thunberg)(Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), a solitary endoparasite of pupae of Old World lepidopteran stalkborers, was recently imported into Texas as a candidate for biological control of New World stalkborers. Information on host acceptability, host suitability and cues responsible for host finding were necessary to gain ...

Influence of ten fungi was studied on host preference, host suitability, and morphometrics of a parthenogenetic and a bisexual isolate of a species of Ditylenchus resembling D. triformis, and one isolate each of Neotylenchus lin f ordi, Aphelenchus avenae, and Paraphelenchus acontioides. Consistent differences in numbers of nematodes recovered from two

The suitability of several aquatic snails as intermediate hosts for Angiostrongylus cantonensis
Zeitschrift f�r Parasitenkunde, 1975Sixteen species of aquatic snails of four families were tested by quantitative technique under standardized conditions for their suitability as intermediate hosts for Angiostrongylus cantonensis. These species were the planorbid snails Biomphalaria glabrata, Biomphalaria alexandrina, Planorbis planorbis, Planorbis intermixtus, Bulinus truncatus ...

Plant sterols and host plant suitability for generalist and specialist caterpillars
Journal of Insect Physiology, 2012Insects, unlike plants and vertebrates, lack the ability to biosynthesize sterols. Cholesterol is typically the most common sterol found in plant-feeding insects, but it is rarely found in plants above trace levels, so plant-feeding insects must produce the cholesterol they need by metabolizing the sterols found in the plants they eat.

Insect herbivores often induce plant volatile compounds that can attract natural enemies. Cotesia marginiventris (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a generalist parasitoid wasp of noctuid caterpillars and is highly attracted to Spodoptera exigua-induced plant volatiles. The plasticity of C.
