Evolutionary biology of insect learning.
Learning and memory, defined as the acquisition and retention of neuronal representations of new information, are ubiquitous among insects. Recent research indicates that a variety of insects rely extensively on learning for all major life activities including feeding, predator avoidance, aggression, social interactions, and sexual behavior. There is good evidence that individuals within an ins...
متن کاملPheromones - future techniques for insect control?
Four decades of pheromone research have provided the tools for environmentally safe control of insects through manipulation of male sexual behaviours. In Europe, disruption of mating by aerial dissemination of synthetic pheromones is used to control several economically important tortricids in orchards and vineyards on ca. 50 000 ha. In addition, attracticide lures have been developed for popul...
متن کاملEvolutionary dynamics and population biology of a polymorphic insect.
Conspicuous heritable polymorphisms are useful to address the question if morph frequencies are stable or whether they fluctuate between generations. Ecological geneticists have studied colour polymorphisms in the past, but there are few long-term studies of genetic dynamics across multiple generations. We studied morph-frequency dynamics and female fecundity in the trimorphic blue-tailed damse...
متن کاملEvolutionary and Genetic Biology of Primates
With the onset of World War II, research on the nonhuman primates underwent a marked decline. It is only within the last decade, that research in this field has undergone a real revival-a revival which, indeed, is becoming increasingly extensive. The greater availability of specimens, brought about by increased funds for research and travel, undoubtedly has been a most important factor. But per...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
