Potential of Extracted Locusta Migratoria Protein Fractions as Value-Added Ingredients
Although locusts can be sustainably produced and are nutrient rich, the thought of eating them can be hard to swallow for many consumers. This paper aims to investigate the nutritional composition of Locusta migratoria, including the properties of extracted locust protein, contributing to limited literature and product development opportunities for industry. Locusts sourced from Dunedin, New Ze...
متن کاملInnervation of the ventral diaphragm of the locust (Locusta migratoria).
1. Innervation and some electrical properties of the locust ventral diaphragm were investigated with electrophysiological and histological methods. 2. Muscle fibres are coupled electrically. Electrical stimulation evokes a graded active membrane response. 3. Each segment is innervated by four motor neurones as follows. Two motor neurones are situated in each abdominal ganglion. Branches of thei...
متن کاملEffect of Ecdysterone on Food Intake of Locusta migratoria Hoppers
Insect growth and developm ent are controlled by hormones [1, 2], The horm ones were also shown to control food intake and utilization in som e insects [3-8]. Ecdysone is associated not only w ith m oult ing and m etam orphosis but also with processes preparatory to a moult, such as cessation o f feeding and the onset o f the w andering stage [9]. Recently evidence for a relationship between f...
متن کاملEvidence for the hormonal function of a CRF-related diuretic peptide (Locusta-DP) in Locusta migratoria
Locusta-DP is a corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)-related diuretic peptide isolated from the migratory locust Locusta migratoria. At nanomolar concentrations, synthetic Locusta-DP stimulated fluid secretion and cyclic AMP production by Malpighian tubules isolated in vitro and increased the rate of amaranth clearance in starved locusts to levels comparable with those observed during post-feed...
متن کاملThe Potential Geographical Distribution of Locusta migratoria tibetensis Chen (Orthoptera: Acrididae) in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Locusta migratoria tibetensis Chen (Orthoptera: Acrididae) is one of the most harmful species of Acrididae. It causes extensive damage to gramineous crops. The climate mapping program, CLIMEX 3.0, and the GIS software, ArcGIS 9.3, were used to model the current and future potential geographical distribution of L. m. tibetensis. The model predicts that, under current climatic conditions, L. m. t...
