Effect of host plant chemistry on genetic differentiation and reduction of gene flow among Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) populations exploiting sympatric, synchronic hosts
(Entomological Society of America, 2013-06)
Herbivore host specialization includes changes in behaviour, driven by locally-induced adaptations to specific plants. These adaptations often result in sexual isolation that can be gauged through detection of reduced gene ...
Host-mediated volatile polymorphism in a parasitic plant influences its attractiveness to pollinators
(Springer, 2010)
Host-plants can mediate the interactions
between herbivores and their mutualists and also between
parasitic plants and their mutualists. The present study
reveals how a hemiparasitic plant parasitizing three host
species ...
Host-specific gene expression as a tool for introduction success in Naupactus parthenogenetic weevils
(Public Library of Science, 2021-07-30)
Food resource access can mediate establishment success in invasive species, and generalist herbivorous insects are thought to rely on mechanisms of transcriptional plasticity to respond to dietary variation. While asexually ...
Topical Prostaglandin E Analog Restores Defective Dendritic Cell-Mediated Th17 Host Defense Against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus in the Skin of Diabetic Mice
(Amer Diabetes Assoc, 2016-12-01)
People with diabetes are more prone to Staphylococcus aureus skin infection than healthy individuals. Control of S. aureus infection depends on dendritic cell (DC)-induced T-helper 17 (Th17)-mediated neutrophil recruitment ...
Immune and biochemical responses in skin differ between bovine hosts genetically susceptible and resistant to the cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus
(BioMed Central, 2017)
Abstract
Background
Ticks attach to and penetrate their hosts’ skin and inactivate multiple components of host responses in order to acquire a blood meal. Infestation loads ...
Actin cytoskeleton-dependent and -independent host cell invasion by Trypanosoma cruzi is mediated by distinct parasite surface molecules
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2006-10-01)
The disassembly of host cell actin cytoskeleton as a facilitator of Trypanosoma cruzi invasion has been reported by some authors, while other workers claim that it instead inhibits internalization of the parasite. in this ...
Wolbachia detection in insects through LAMP: loop mediated isothermal amplification.
