Effect of Age, Female Mating Status and Density on the Banana Weevil Response to Aggregation Pheromone
The banana (Musa spp.) weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a major pest in East Africa causing yield losses of up to 14 metric tonnes per hectare annually. Laboratory and field experiments were conducted to determine whether the response of the banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) to its aggregation pheromone was influenced ...
متن کاملInduced cell aggregation and mating in Streptococcus faecalis: evidence for a bacterial sex pheromone.
Recipient strains of Streptococcus faecalis produce a trypsin sensitive, heat resistant, nuclease resistant factor, designated clumping-inducing agent (CIA) which causes strains carrying certain conjugative plasmids to aggregate. RNA and protein synthesis but not DNA synthesis are required for aggregation to occur. Recipient filtrates that contain CIA activity also induce donors to mate at high...
متن کاملAggregation pheromone density based data clustering
Ants, bees and other social insects deposit pheromone (a type of chemical) in order to communicate between the members of their community. Pheromone, that causes clumping or clustering behavior in a species and brings individuals into a closer proximity, is called aggregation pheromone. This article presents a new algorithm (called, APC) for clustering data sets based on this property of aggreg...
متن کاملAggregation Pheromone Density Based Pattern Classification
The study of ant colonies behavior and their self-organizing capabilities is of interest to machine learning community, because it provides models of distributed adaptive organization which are useful to solve difficult optimization and classification problems among others. Social insects like ants, bees deposit pheromone (a type of chemical) in order to communicate between the members of their...
متن کاملBasidiomycete mating type genes and pheromone signaling.
The genome sequences of the basidiomycete Agaricomycetes species Coprinopsis cinerea, Laccaria bicolor, Schizophyllum commune, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, and Postia placenta, as well as of Cryptococcus neoformans and Ustilago maydis, are now publicly available. Out of these fungi, C. cinerea, S. commune, and U. maydis, together with the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, have been invest...
