Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Half of all insect species are dependent on living plant tissues, consuming about 10% of plant annual production in natural habitats and an even greater percentage in agricultural systems, despite sophisticated control measures. Plants are generally remarkably well-protected against insect attack, with the result that most insects are highly specialized feeders. The mechanisms underlying plant resistance to invading herbivores on the one side, and insect food specialization on the other, are the main subjects of this book. For insects these include food-plant selection and the complex sensory processes involved, with their implications for learning and nutritional physiology, as well as the endocrinological aspects of life cycle synchronization with host plant phenology. In the case of plants exposed to insect herbivores, they include the activation of defence systems in order to minimize damage, as well as the emission of chemical signals that may attract natural enemies of the invading herbivores and may be exploited by neighbouring plants that mount defences as well." "Insect-Plant Biology discusses the operation of these mechanisms at the molecular and organismal levels, in the context of both ecological interactions and evolutionary relationships. In doing so, it uncovers the highly intricate antagonistic and mutualistic interactions that have evolved between plants and insects. The book concludes with a chapter on the application of our knowledge of insect-plant interactions to agricultural production." "This multidisciplinary approach will appeal to students in agricultural entomology, plant sciences, ecology, and indeed anyone interested in the principles underlying the relationships between the two largest groups of organisms on earth: plants and insects."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Tous les insectes ont besoin des plantes à l'un au moins des stades de leur cycle biologique. De leur côté, les plantes dépendent principalement des insectes pour leur reproduction, et même celles dont la pollinisation s'effectue par un autre moyen sont en "relation" avec eux : elles leur servent de nourriture, de cachettes, de matériau et d'abri pour leurs nids, de support pour leurs œufs, leurs chrysalides, etc. Plantes et insectes ont ainsi évolué de concert dans une aventure qui a débuté il y a deux cent cinquante millions d'années. Cette coévolutioni a abouti a des stratégies et à des relations très particulières, voire uniques, entre le règne végétal et le règne animal. Grâce aux magnifiques photographies de l'agence Biosphoto et aux textes éclairants de Vincent Albouy, entomologiste et écrivain, nous découvrons avec émerveillement les multiples aspects de ces relations à la fois étonnantes et passionnantes.

Book excerpt: A proximité de chaque plante règne une joyeuse agitation : des mammifères la frôlent en passant ou s'en nourrissent ; les oiseaux picorent pucerons, chenilles, araignées et autres petits animaux, déchiquettent les inflorescences ou dévorent les graines. Amphibiens, reptiles et poissons peuvent aussi s'y intéresser. Toutes sortes d'insectes y élisent domicile ou la visitent, des fleurs les plus hautes au bout des racines ! De minuscules insectes dépourvus d'ailes comme les collemboles y sont représentés, de même que des acariens et autres arachnides. Divers groupes de vers vivent également au niveau des racines ou dans la plante. Limaces et escargots s'en nourrissent. Sans parler d'innombrables organismes microscopiques ! Ce livre initie le lecteur à ces relations fascinantes des plantes avec leurs visiteurs. Il répond à nombre de questions : Comment plantes et animaux tissent-ils des liens ? Qu'est-ce qu'un microhabitat végétal ? Qui vit dans ces microhabitats ? Que peut offrir la plante ? De nombreuses plantes ont établi des liens si étroits avec des partenaires, au cours d'une coévolution, qu'elles ne peuvent plus vivre sans eux. Certaines, comme les orchidées, ne germent et poussent qu'avec des champignons spécifiques. Parfois, c'est une unique espèce d'insecte qui peut polliniser efficacement les fleurs. Les plantes présentées sous forme de portrait, sont en général connues des amateurs et faciles à identifier. Ce livre permet de mieux comprendre ces interrelations et aiguise l'oeil pour permettre de belles découvertes lors de promenades en toutes saisons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents the first efforts to explore ecological interactions between insects and plants across several trophic levels, with special focus on mediation of complex interactions by plant allelochemicals. First section looks at effects of plant allelochemicals on predator-prey and host-parasitoid interactions. Second section reveals the role of microorganisms as mediators of interactions between insects and plants. Third section unifies and extends current theory to examine the effects of allelochemicals on the second and third trophic levels. Final section traces the physiological effects of plant allelochemicals in animal behavior, population regulation, maintenance of mimicry systems, and evolution of host range.

Book excerpt: Insects and plants, whether or not they coevolved, have intimate interrelationships. This book concisely yet thoroughly describes these phenomena. In one chapter the salient facts known about carnivorous plants are described. In another, ant and plant relationships are summarized as an introduction to this vast subject. Pollination, of great interest to agriculturists and horticulturists, is briefly explained without the complexities detailed in the massive literature on this topic. Many other subjects are discussed, such as the memory of adult butterflies, which enables them to return to their host plants in the case of the polyphagous species. The book is seeded with such thought-provoking discussions as prostitution among the orchids and botanical indigestion in some plants.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to the meticulous and enthusiastic work of insect collectors and taxonomists over the past hundred years and more, we have today a large amount of information on the feeding habits and life styles of sev eral hundred thousands of insect species. Insects that feed on plants during at least one of their life stages constitute about half of the three-quarters of a million described species. Their numbers both in terms of species and individuals together with their small but macroscopic sizes makes the insect-plant biological interface perhaps the most conspicuous, diverse and largest assemblage of intimate interspecies interactions in existence. It is also perhaps the most important biological interface be cause of the plants' role as primary producers upon which all other forms of earthly life depend, thereby bringing herbivorous insects occasionally into direct competition with human food and fiber production. Early enthusiasm revealed many remarkable specializations and associ ations between insects and plants, and occasionally assigned chemical me diators for them. However, the modern practices of large scale crop pro tection by synthetic pesticides and their attendant problems, particularly with resistance in "pests" and destruction of natural enemies, have been in large measure responsible for drawing our attention to the mechanisms whereby plants control insect populations and insects adapt to the plants' defenses. These practices have also brought home the importance of chemical mediators in practically all aspects of insect activities and, in parti cular, the importance of plant allelochemicals in maintaining and balan cing insect-plant associations.

Download or read book Biochemical Interaction Between Plants and Insects written by James Wallace and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Botanists and zoologists have recognized for centuries the specificity of various insects for plants, and entomolo gists have long been aware that insects defend themselves from predators by emitting repulsive odors. Only recently have chemists and biologists established a joint endeavor for studying the chemical relationships between plants and insects. The present symposium volume of the Phytochemical Society of North America's RECENT ADVANCES IN PHYTOCHEMISTRY consists of eight papers dealing with phytochemical relation ships between plants and their insect herbivores. The fifteenth P.S.N.A. annual symposium and meeting was held in August, 1975, on the campus of The University of South Florida, Tampa. The chemical defenses of apparent and unapparent plants were contrasted by Feeny. Rodreguiz and Levin illustrated parallel defense mechanisms of plants and insects and then Hendry, Kostelc, Hindenlang, Wichmann, Fix and Koreniowski discussed chemical messengers for both plants and insects. Subsequently Beck and Reese reviewed plant contributions to insect nutrition and metabolism. Indepth studies for the monarch butterfly-milkweed interaction were presented by Roeske, Seiber, Brower, and Moffitt and for the cotton boll weevil-cotton plant relationship by Hedin, Thompson, and Gueldner. In the latter portion of the symposium Rhoades and Cates presented a general theory concerning the coevolu tion of insects and plant antiherbivore chemistry.
