The stomach of the Striated Scope Owl (OtusScorsbrucei) consist of two externally distinguishable chambers: that are the proventriculus (glandular part which secretes the gastric juices) and the gizzard (ventriculus) which has a mechanical function. The

Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

The morphological development of the proventriculus in the phyllosomal and nisto stages of the scyllarid slipper lobster is described and illustrated. Possible flow pathways of food particles is deduced from the structure of the proventriculus.

Anatomy and Histology of the Midgut of Atopozelus opsimus (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)
ABSTRACT Atopozelus opsimus Elkins, 1954 (Heteroptera: Reduviidae) preys on forest and agricultural pests but also feeds on extrafloral nectar; however, its alimentary canal is poorly understood. The aim was to describe the anatomy and histology of the A. opsimus midgut. The alimentary canal of female and male A.

Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires immunity and detoxification gene regulation by Lola
Malaria mosquito antimicrobial defence requires upregulation of lola. Attenuation of lola in the midgut of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes inhibits the upregulation of immunity genes induced by challenge. Putative target genes of the Lola transcription factor were revealed by lola attenuation, including Cecropin‐C, Draper, PPAF2, Clip‐domain serine ...

Proventriculus of three nemobiinae crickets (Orthoptera: Grylloidea: Trigonidiidae)
The morphology of the proventriculus may supply useful taxonomic characters for some species of crickets. This study evaluated if the proventriculus can be used to distinguish three species of Nemobiinae crickets: Phoremia sp. n., Zucchiella sp.

Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

The proventriculus of Cicindelidae : systematics and functional morphology [PDF]
Internal structures of the proventriculus of adult tiger beetles were examined to determine their function and taxonomic and phylogenetic value. The overall appearance of the proventriculus suggested an intricate filter designed to permit the flow of ...

Partial replacement of maize with cassava root meal (CRM) improved growth performance, carcass traits, antioxidant activity, meat quality, and sensory acceptability in broiler chickens. Among all treatments, 10% CRM supplementation showed optimal feed efficiency, water‐holding capacity, and antioxidant status without adverse health effects, indicating ...
