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]

open access: yes, 2001
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

Anopheles larval species composition and characterization of breeding habitats in two localities in the Ghibe River Basin, southwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2020
Background Documentation of the species composition of Anopheles mosquitoes and characterization of larval breeding sites is of major importance for the implementation of larval control as part of malaria vector control interventions in Ethiopia.

Tracking Microbial Communities Across Aedes Albopictus Life Stages and Larval Habitat Types

open access: yes, 2021
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Effect of presence and semiochemicals of conspecific stages on oviposition by ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2012
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]

open access: yes, 2011
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]

open access: yes, 2013
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]

open access: yes, 2014
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]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 2005
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]

open access: yes, 2000
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 ...
