Silk of the Indian meal moth Plodia interpunctella (Hübner, 1813) affects the human colon cancer cells [PDF]
The insect silk protects the larvae that produce it. This implies that it may contain biologically active substances that can be used in medicine. In this paper, the cytotoxic and proapoptotic potential of Indian meal moth (Plodia interpunctella) silk ...

Discovery and biological characterization of a novel mesoionic insecticide fenmezoditiaz
Acetylcholine binding protein (AChBP) from the sea slug Aplysia californica was modified using site‐directed mutagenesis to create an insect‐like binding site enabling structure‐based compound design. Fenmezoditiaz is a systemic insecticide with a broad spectrum, lack of cross‐resistance and an additional tool for integrated pest management and ...

Studies on the Diapause of the Indian-meal Moth, Plodia interpunctella HÜBNER
一般に,ノシメコクガは約20°Cで飼育すると終令幼虫で休眠にはいり羽化はおくれる。一方羽化の早いものを選んで飼育を続けると,休眠せずによう化羽化してくる休眠性の弱いストックをうることができる。このストックに及ぼす高温の影響を調べた。発育初期(卵∼1・2令幼虫)をある期間(少なくとも2日以上)30°Cで飼育してから20°Cに戻すと休眠する。あまり長く30°Cで飼育すると4∼5令(終令)またはそれ以上に発育して休眠しなくなる。卵から成虫になるまで,またはそのうちの後半のみを30°Cで経過させ,その羽化虫をすぐ20°Cに移して産卵させるとふ化幼虫は休眠にはいらず成虫となる。また次の世代でも休眠にはいらない。すなわち当世代の発育初期の高温は休眠を起こさせるが ...

The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation
ABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

International Biological Flora: Trapa natans†
The water caltrop (Trapa natans L.) was once widely distributed in its native range, but is in some part (i.e. Europe) nowadays very rare, highly threatened and of conservation concern for still unknown reasons. It has been introduced beyond its native range (e.g.

Is mating failure caused by cryptic male choice in the seed bug Lygaeus simulans?
We expect cryptic mating failure–the failure to produce offspring due to fertilisation or insemination failure–to be strongly selected against because copulations are costly and are also a fundamental route to fitness. Mating failure is common in nature however, and in the seed bug Lygaeus simulans, rates are high (40%–60%). We performed experiments to
