Modeling Currents About Vitellogenic Oocytes of the Cockroach, Blattella germanica.
An insect oocyte with a disc-shaped sink of current on its ventral surface during a vitellogenic phase of development is used to demonstrate modeling of expected currents arising from a mathematically defined source. A simple model with an analytical solution for the expected currents is compared to a more complex model in which expectations are computed by mathematical integration. The current...
متن کاملDe Novo Transcriptome of the Hemimetabolous German Cockroach (Blattella germanica)
BACKGROUND The German cockroach, Blattella germanica, is an important insect pest that transmits various pathogens mechanically and causes severe allergic diseases. This insect has long served as a model system for studies of insect biology, physiology and ecology. However, the lack of genome or transcriptome information heavily hinder our further understanding about the German cockroach in eve...
متن کاملThe structural basis for water exchange between the female cockroach (Blattella germanica) and her ootheca.
Female German cockroaches usually carry their oothecae until they hatch. The success of embryogenesis may be dependent on the water-balance relationship between females and their developing oothecae. Oothecae detached from females early in embryogenesis often fail to develop, especially in low-humidity environments. Experiments reported here using tritiated water have confirmed the transport of...
متن کاملIdentification, description, and activity of proteins in the tergal glands of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.)
Myers, Aaron J. M.S., Purdue University, May 2015. Identification, description, and activity of proteins in the tergal glands of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.). Major Professors: Gary Bennett and Mike Scharf. German cockroaches are important urban pests that have been linked to asthma and serious allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. In this research project I, (i) ident...
متن کاملPatterns of biosynthesis and accumulation of hydrocarbons and contact sex pheromone in the female German cockroach, Blattella germanica.
De novo synthesis of contact female sex pheromone and hydrocarbons in Blattella germanica was examined using short in vivo incubations. Accumulation of pheromone on the epicuticular surface and the internal pheromone titer were related to age-specific changes in hydrocarbon synthesis and accumulation in normal and allatectomized females. The incorporation of radiolabel from [1-14C]propionate in...
