Download or read book Herbivorous Insects written by Sami Ahmad and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herbivorous Insects: Host-Seeking Behavior and Mechanisms addresses mechanisms of searching behavior leading ultimately to host location of herbivorous insects. It is divided into four sections, wherein the first two sections deal with neurophysiology and the diversity of behavioral induction cues. The third section covers the searching mechanisms as affected by insects' breadth of diet. The last part examines the evolutionary analysis of the behavioral and physiological adaptations in insect/host plant relations. This book starts with an introduction to the chemical sensory system as it relates to host selection in general. This is followed by considerable discussions on host-seeking behavior and allied patterns in behavior. This text also includes the study of oviposition behavior in butterflies belonging to Papilionidae. The third section presents host selection and colonization by three insects within the saprophage-predator continuum, namely, Hylurgopinus rufipes, Scolytus multistriatus, and Pissodes strobi. The behaviors by which certain oligophagous insects locate and select food plants are also considered. The concluding part addresses the unifying theme and the diversity of responses of phytophagous insects to plants. The book provides direction toward developing a unifying theme and improving the ability to unravel the complexities of insect/plant interactions. Behaviorists, ecologists, entomologists, evolutionary biologists, and physiologists will find this book invaluable.
Book Synopsis Electrophysiological Responses of Taste-receptor Cells to Various Feeding Stimulants, Deterrents, and Their Interactions in Gypsy Moth Larvae, Lymantria Dispar (L.) by : Timothy Lee Martin
Download or read book Electrophysiological Responses of Taste-receptor Cells to Various Feeding Stimulants, Deterrents, and Their Interactions in Gypsy Moth Larvae, Lymantria Dispar (L.) written by Timothy Lee Martin and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gypsy moth larvae are highly polyphagous feeders. They possess taste sensory organs, the medial and lateral galeal styloconic sensilla, which play an important role in host-plant selection through the detection of phytochemicals, such as alkaloids. The styloconic sensilla each house four taste receptor cells, including a sugar, salt, deterrent, and inositol cell. Using a single cell electrophysiological tip-recording method, my aim was to characterize the temporal firing patterns and sensitivities of the receptor cells within each sensillum when exposed to a selected phytochemicals. These results revealed that one or more cells responded to selected alkaloids, sugars, sugar alcohols, and salt. The deterrent cell exhibited a robust temporal firing pattern and displayed varying sensitivity to alkaloid stimulation. I also examined the effects of mixture interactions of these phytochemicals on food palatability. This study offers insights into the role of phytochemicals, especially alkaloids, in the taste physiology of this larval insect.

Book Synopsis Introduction to Forest and Shade Tree Insects by : Bozzano G Luisa
Download or read book Introduction to Forest and Shade Tree Insects written by Bozzano G Luisa and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehenisive text approaches the subject from an ecological/evolutionary biological perspective. The assumption is that one cannot study forest insects without understanding the dynamics of the relationship between an insect and its host plant. This relationship includes knowing what factors control forest insect populations such as food, food quality, tree vigor, host selection, and symbiotic relationships. The authors also discuss tree-injuring insects from the perspective of their influence on tree physiology and growth as well as economic and commercial effects. The book represents a "modern" approach to the topic of forest and shade tree insects; is well-illustrated; and includes a comprehensive primary reference list.

Book Synopsis Environmental Impacts of Microbial Insecticides by : Heikki M.T. Hokkanen
Download or read book Environmental Impacts of Microbial Insecticides written by Heikki M.T. Hokkanen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological pesticides are increasingly finding therr place in IPM and increasing numbers of products are making therr way to the marketplace. Particularly in China, Latin America and Australia, implementation is proceeding on a large scale. However, in the USA and Europe, registration procedures for insect pathogens to be used for insect control have been established that requrre low levels of risk, resulting in costs of retarding the implementation of microbial agents. This book provides a review of the state of the art of studies on the envrronmental impact of microbial insecticides. It originates from a Society for Invertebrate Pathology Microbial Control Division Symposium .. Assessment of envrronmental safety of biological insecticides", organised in collaboration with the EU-ERBIC research project (FAIR5-CT97-3489). This symposium was initiated by Heikki Hokkanen and Chris Lomer, and was held at the SIP Annual Meeting in 2001 in The Netherlands. The emphasis in this book is on large scale use of microbial agents for insect control, demonstrating how this use has been proceeding with minimal envrron mental impact. This book is intended to be of use to regulatory authorities in determining whether further studies in eertain areas are necessary and how to conduct them if needed, or whether sufficient information has been collected already to permit fuH registration of many of these biological control agents.

Book Synopsis Theoretical Approaches to Biological Control by : Bradford A. Hawkins
Download or read book Theoretical Approaches to Biological Control written by Bradford A. Hawkins and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological control is the suppression of pest populations using predators, parasitoids and pathogens. Historically, biological control has largely been on a trial-and-error basis, and has failed more often than it has succeeded. However by developing theories based upon fundamental population principles and the biological characteristics of the pest and agent, we can gain a much better understanding of when and how to use biological control. This book gathers together recent theoretical developments and provides a balanced guide to the important issues that need to be considered in applying ecological theory to biological control. It will be a source of productive and stimulating thought for all those interested in pest management, theoretical ecology and population biology.
Book Synopsis Cthulhu Deep Down Under by : Christopher Sequeira
Download or read book Cthulhu Deep Down Under written by Christopher Sequeira and published by Ifwg Publishing International. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated horror writer H. P. Lovecraft's first major tale of his Cthulhu Mythos began an entire sub-genre of the macabre and in that story, he made Australia a crucial location in his supernatural universe. Now, a group of Australia's most accomplished writers of speculative fiction return to the promise of the master. This collection not only includes the best Australian Lovecraftian fiction but also presents new stories by internationally-lauded Australian creators Lucy Sussex, Kaaron Warren, and Janeen Webb. The book is the first in a series that will provoke fresh new imaginings of cosmic horror visited upon the land down under, and remind readers that when the stars come right, things for the inhabitants beneath the Southern Cross may go very, very wrong.
