Potential plant–plant communication induced by infochemical methyl jasmonate in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor)
(2021-03-01)
Despite the fact that they are sessile organisms, plants actively move their organs and also use these movements to manipulate the surrounding biotic and abiotic environments. Plants maintain communication with neighboring ...
Pesticide increases transgenerational cost of inducible defenses in a freshwater rotifer
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)
© 2017, Springer International Publishing Switzerland. In addition to natural stressors such as predation risk, aquatic organisms receive the simultaneous impact of anthropogenic stressors like pollution. In order to advance ...
Experimental assessment of interaction costs of inducible defenses in plankton
(2011)
The expression of phenotypically plastic traits in prey organisms, triggered by changes in the abundance of their predators, is customarily assumed to involve costs in some fitness components such as fecundity, growth or ...
Impact of odor signáis on Cycloneda sanguínea (Coleóptera: Coccinellidae) searching behavior
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Facultad de Agronomía e Ingeniería Forestal, 2008)
Behavioural responses of freshwater zooplankton vary according to the different alarm signals of their invertebrate predators
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-09)
Single behavioural interactions between two freshwater planktonic crustaceans and invertebrate predators from different zones of the common environment were studied. The planktonic prey organisms were the cladoceran ...
Impacto de xenobióticos y comunicadores químicos sobre algunos procesos biológicos en organismos del zooplancton
(2013-10-07)
En la presente tesis, se propuso la hipótesis de que los contaminantes y los infoquímicos indicadores de depredación son capaces de modificar el comportamiento del zooplancton y que dichas modificaciones constituyen ...
Response of the fruit fly parasitoid Diachasmimorpha longicaudata to host and host-habitat volatile cues
(Wiley, 2012-05)
Chemical information is crucial to insect parasitoids for successful host location. Here, we evaluated the innate response of Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), a fruit fly larval parasitoid, ...
Chemical interaction between the larva of a dipteran parasitoid and its coleopteran host: A case of exploitation of the communication system during the searching behaviour?
(Cambridge University Press, 2012-06)
The robber fly Mallophora ruficauda is one of the principal apicultural pests in the Pampas region of Argentina. As adults, the flies prey on honey bees and other insects; while, as larvae, they parasitize scarab beetle ...
Effects of quantitative and qualitative differences in volatiles from host- and non-host-infested maize on the attraction of the larval parasitoid Cotesia kariyai
(2017-04-01)
Cotesia kariyai Watanabe (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a specialist larval parasitoid of Mythimna separata Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Cotesia kariyai wasps use herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) to locate hosts. ...
