Effect of Alarm Chemicals and Predator Kairomones on the Behaviour of Two Species of Mosquito Larvae [PDF]
Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2019 Mosquito larvae have developed a variety of responses to reduce the risk of predation, but this requires them to be able to identify the different species of predators and respond accordingly.

Exposure of unwounded plants to chemical cues associated with herbivores leads to exposure-dependent changes in subsequent herbivore attack. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Although chemical predator cues often lead to changes in the anti-predator behavior of animal prey, it is not clear whether non-volatile herbivore kairomones (i.e.

A Review of the Host Plant Location and Recognition Mechanisms of Asian Longhorn Beetle
Insects, 2023 The Asian longhorn beetle (ALB), Anoplophora glabripennis Motschulsky, is a polyphagous xylophage with dozens of reported host tree species. However, the mechanisms by which individuals locate and recognize host plants are still unknown. We summarize the

Dormant plasticity of rotifer diapausing eggs in relation to predator kairomones
, 2021 In freshwater ecosystems, dormant strategy of diapausing eggs under predation risk has important ecological implication for zooplanktons. Although kairomones released by predators can induce phenotypic responses of prey, hatching patterns of diapausing ...

Role of kairomones in host location of the pennellid copepod parasite, Lernaeocera branchialis (L. 1767) [PDF]
, 2013 The life cycle of the parasitic copepod Lernaeocera branchialis involves 2 hosts, typically a pleuronectiform host upon which development of larvae and mating of adults occurs and a subsequent gadoid host, upon which the adult female feeds and reproduces.

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2010 The aim of this work was to evaluate whether diel vertical migration of microcrustaceans from Lake Monte Alegre is related to invertebrate predators, namely larvae of Chaoborus brasiliensis. The hypothesis tested in the experiments was that the migratory

Diversity, 2018 Translocations are stressful, especially when captive animals are naïve to natural stimuli. Captive eastern hellbenders (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis alleganiensis) identify predatory fish as threats, but may be more vulnerable to predation and stress ...
