Roles of biogenic amines in regulating bioluminescence in the Australian glowworm Arachnocampa flava.
The glowworm Arachnocampa flava is a carnivorous fly larva (Diptera) that uses light to attract prey into its web. The light organ is derived from cells of the Malpighian tubules, representing a bioluminescence system that is unique to the genus. Bioluminescence is modulated through the night although light levels change quite slowly compared with the flashing of the better-known fireflies (Col...
متن کاملCircadian regulation of bioluminescence in the prey-luring glowworm, Arachnocampa flava.
The glowworms of New Zealand and Australia are bioluminescent fly larvae that generate light to attract prey into their webs. Some species inhabit the constant darkness of caves as well as the dim, natural photophase of rain-forests. Given the diversity of light regimens experienced by glowworms in their natural environment, true circadian rhythmicity of light output could be present. Consequen...
متن کاملTwo bioluminescent diptera: the North American Orfelia fultoni and the Australian Arachnocampa flava. Similar niche, different bioluminescence systems.
Orfelia fultoni is the only bioluminescent dipteran (Mycetophilidae) found in North America. Its larvae live on stream banks in the Appalachian Mountains. Like their Australasian relative Arachnocampa spp., they build sticky webs to which their bioluminescence attracts flying prey. They bear two translucent lanterns at the extremities of the body, histologically distinct from the single caudal ...
متن کاملBiogenic amines in sea products
Sea food products are being processed through various techniques, i.e. chilling and freezing, heating, irradiating, and curing; regard to the condition of processing, formation of biogenic amines are probable, as raw materials are usually rich in respective precursors. Fermented fish products are among the most vulnerable items to this challenge, these products due to their nutritious value are...
