Chemical Nature And Persistence Of The Oviposition Deterring Pheromone In The Tracks Of The Larvae Of The Two Spot Ladybird, Adalia Bipunctata (Coleoptera : Coccinellidae) [PDF]
peer reviewedAphidophagous ladybirds are reluctant to oviposit in patches of prey where conspecific larvae are present. This is adaptive as larval cannibalism is a major threat to egg survival. Ladybirds avoid laying eggs in such patches by responding to

Tracking Microbial Communities Across Aedes Albopictus Life Stages and Larval Habitat Types
Abstract Aedes albopictus, the Tiger Mosquito, has been hailed as one of the most invasive arbovirus-transmitting mosquitoes globally. With the growing potential of microbial methods for mosquito control, it has become increasingly imperative to understand the factors that contribute to naturally-occurring microbiome communities.

Assessment of oviposition site quality by aphidophagous hoverflies: reaction to conspecific larvae [PDF]
peer reviewedAphidophagous predators adapt their foraging behaviour to the presence of conspecific and heterospecific larvae. We studied the effect of the presence of conspecific larvae and their tracks on the oviposition site selection of an aphid ...

Reduced oviposition by ladybirds in the presence of tracks of fourth instar larvae owing to the presence of oviposition deterring pheromones is well established across many genera.

Re-evaluation of the thiamine dose-response relationship for larval lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) using an individual based model [PDF]
Low thiamine levels in lake trout eggs is a condition thought to contribute to widespread recruitment failure in Great Lakes lake trout populations. Substantial, natural reproduction has not been achieved by lake trout in the Great Lakes, except Lake ...

Representative tracks showing the movement (10 min) of individual adult workers (at different times following emergence) of the stingless bee Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides reared on imidacloprid-contaminated diet during the larval period. [PDF]
Red tracks indicate high walking velocity, while green tracks indicate low (initial) velocity.

Kank Is an EB1 Interacting Protein that Localises to Muscle-Tendon Attachment Sites in Drosophila [PDF]
Little is known about how microtubules are regulated in different cell types during development. EB1 plays a central role in the regulation of microtubule plus ends.

Spatial and temporal variation in trace elemental fingerprints of mytilid mussel shells: A precursor to invertebrate larval tracking [PDF]
Elements incorporated into developing hard parts of planktonic larvae record the environmental conditions experienced during growth. These chemical signatures, termed elemental fingerprints, potentially allow for reconstruction of locations of larvae. Here, we have demonstrated for the first time the feasibility of this approach for bivalve shells.

Stochastic (Markov) Modelling Along Trajectories In A Hydrodynamic Model Of Series Of Events Of Potential Interest For Recruitment [PDF]
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Here we analyze the interest of an intermediate approach to the coupling. It is based on the statistical characteristics of the spatio-temporal process of larval environmental events ...
