Flagellar Sensillar Equipment of Two Morphologically Closely Related Aphid Hyperparasitoids (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Alloxysta)
The antennal sensillar equipment in the parasitic wasp family Figitidae was analyzed to date only in few species, despite some are associated with crop pests and can have an economic importance. It is the case of the genus Alloxysta, which includes hyperparasitoids of aphids which can potentially reduce effectiveness of primary pest parasitoids. Here we analyzed, through scanning electron micro...
متن کاملDiverse Filters to Sense: Great Variability of Antennal Morphology and Sensillar Equipment in Gall-Wasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae)
Comparative studies on antennal sensillar equipment in insects are largely lacking, despite their potential to provide insights into both ecological and phylogenetic relationships. Here we present the first comparative study on antennal morphology and sensillar equipment in female Cynipoidea (Hymenoptera), a large and diverse group of wasps, with special reference to the so-called gall-wasps (C...
متن کاملClosely related dermatophyte species produce different patterns of secreted proteins.
Dermatophytes are the most common infectious agents responsible for superficial mycosis in humans and animals. Various species in this group of fungi show overlapping characteristics. We investigated the possibility that closely related dermatophyte species with different behaviours secrete distinct proteins when grown in the same culture medium. Protein patterns from culture filtrates of sever...
متن کاملAntennal Drumming, Trophallaxis, and Colony Development in the Social Wasp Polistes fuscatus (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)
Parental care is widespread among both vertebrates and invertebrates. In some species, the parents provide the young only with protection from predators and ⁄or parasites, but in most others the adults provide nutrients for their immature offspring. The latter context has led to the evolution of social behavior in a few groups, notably in some of the mammals and in the social Hymenoptera (Alexa...
متن کاملPredatory Bacteriovorax Communities Ordered by Various Prey Species
The role of predation in altering microbial communities has been studied for decades but few examples are known for bacterial predators. Bacteriovorax are halophilic prokaryotes that prey on susceptible gram-negative bacteria. We recently reported novel observations on the differential selection of Bacteriovorax phylotypes by two different prey, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus. Ho...
