The source of blood of most haematophagous insects plays at the same time the double role of host and potential predator. Feeding behaviour should be triggered only when necessary and should be completed as quickly as possible. From an epidemiological point of view, this modulation has an impact on the feeding frequency of disease vectors and, as a consequence, on the transmission of parasites. At present, not many data are available on the influence of the physiological state on the motivation to feed, and mostly limited to a few mosquito species. We analyzed the host-seeking behaviour of Rhodnius prolixus as a function of the time elapsed since the ecdysis, by testing the response of larvae to a blood source, and long- (CO2) and short-range (heat) orientation cues associated to their vertebrate hosts. Our experiments demonstrated that during the first days following the ecdysis insects do not respond to any stimuli. The ability to follow chemical and physical cues increases either gradually (heat) or step-wise (CO2) with post-ecdysis time. A few insects started to feed on day 2, but only at day 7 following the ecdysis 50% of them took a blood meal, to reach the highest motivation to feed on day 10. The reasons for the “maturation period” in feeding behaviour of R. prolixus are discussed.  相似文献

Odours (OUE) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission during biological process used to treat MSW were studied under standardized conditions in order to detect potential risk for workers and population. Results obtained indicated that odours and VOCs emitted depend on the biological stability of waste measured by the dynamic respiration index (DRI) and a very good correlation were found between these parameters (OUE vs. DRI, r = 0.96, p < 0.001, = 6; VOC vs. DRI, r = 0.97, p < 0.001, = 6).GC-MS study of the VOCs indicated the presence of a group of molecules that were degraded during the process. On the other hand, a second group of molecules, i.e. aromatic and halogenated compounds, and furan persisted in the waste sample, although molecule concentrations were always lower than Threshold Limit Value-Time Weighted Average (TLV-TWA).  相似文献

Tammar wallaby females (Macropus eugenii) are seasonally breeding marsupials with a post-partum oestrus after a highly synchronised birth period when testosterone concentrations rise in males. Chemical communication appears to be important for mating, as males show checking behaviour, sniffing the urogenital opening (UGO) and the pouch of females. This study investigates whether the presence of pregnant and oestrous females directly influences testosterone in males and if oestrous odours or secretion from the pouch or UGO are attractive. Concentrations of plasma testosterone were measured in males housed with pregnant and oestrous females during two consecutive cycles in the breeding season, and an artificially induced cycle in the non-breeding season. Males were also tested for their interest in swabs taken from the urogenital opening (UGO) or pouch of oestrous females. Testosterone increased sharply in males in the presence of pregnant and oestrous females during all cycles in both seasons, but there was no change when males were exposed to non-cycling females in lactational or seasonal diapause. Males had no preference for either oestrous or non-oestrous samples taken from the pouch or from the UGO from oestrous females. This study confirms that the increase in plasma testosterone in tammar males can be induced through the presence of pregnant and oestrous females, regardless of season and that the increase began when the females were in late-pregnancy. This confirms that the male's reproductive state is dependent on a signal from females and is not blocked through seasonal effects.  相似文献

近年来大气污染问题愈发突出,工业生产过程是大气污染的一重要源头。微生物法治理制造工业生产中产生的挥发性有机物、恶臭气体、硫化物、氮氧化物等气态污染物以效率高、投资少、绿色且环境友好等优势逐渐在国内兴起,广受关注。本文综述了微生物法的基本理论、技术分类及特点、应用范围,以及国内外较新的研究方向与进展。微生物法净化低浓度污染物效率往往很高,而处理难溶、高浓度、生物毒性、难降解的污染物时易受到局限。专家学者们对此进行了大量研究与实验,创新出的高效技术进行总结。本文认为减少传质阻力方法的应用、与其他处理技术联用、清晰微生物降解机理与途径等是提高微生物法效率的重要方向。但提及的大部分强化手段仍处于实验研究阶段,使其工业化仍需要进一步探索。  相似文献

个体辨别对于减少同种争斗以及配偶选择具有重要意义。我们用棉棒粘取鳄蜥(Shinisaurus crocodilurus)尿液作为气味源,以香水作为对照,测定鳄蜥对熟悉个体气味、陌生个体气味以及香水的舔舌次数和舔舌潜伏期,来探讨鳄蜥通过化学信息辨别熟悉和陌生个体的能力。结果显示,不论是雌性还是雄性,对不同个体尿液的舔舌次数均显著高于对香水的,舔舌潜伏期显著短于香水的;尽管雄性对陌生同性个体气味与熟悉同性个体气味的舔舌次数无显著差异,但对前者的舔舌潜伏期显著短于后者;雄性对陌生雌性气味的舔舌次数显著多于熟悉雌性气味的,对前者的舔舌潜伏期显著短于后者;雌性对陌生雄性气味的舔舌潜伏期显著短于对熟悉雄性气味的;雄鳄蜥对陌生雌性气味的舔舌次数显著多于雌鳄蜥对陌生雄性的。结果表明,鳄蜥能辨别同种个体的化学信息,并能通过化学信息来辨别熟悉和陌生个体,推测鳄蜥的这种辨别能力对其领域分配以及繁殖交配有重要作用。  相似文献

It has recently been shown that metamorphosis of Ucides cordatus megalopae is triggered by substrata from the mangrove forest habitat, and, in particular, adult conspecific odours. Here we demonstrate that the gender of the odour-emitting crabs is insignificant for the metamorphic response in this species. We further investigate whether other estuarine crabs (Goniopsis cruentata, Uca spp., and Callinectes danae) also induce settlement and metamorphosis of U. cordatus megalopae. This is of special interest for population recovery in areas hit by lethargic crab disease (LCD), a fungus that selectively kills U. cordatus but not co-occurring species. Ucides megalopae were reared in four treatments with interspecific-conditioned seawater and tested against the effects of conspecific-conditioned seawater (positive control) and pure seawater (negative control). All megalopae in the positive control metamorphosed successfully, while only one (2%) moulted in the negative control, with a delay of 10 days compared with the latest metamorphosis in the former treatment. In seawater conditioned with U. maracoani and C. danae, which occur on sediment banks and in tidal creeks respectively, all larvae died before reaching the juvenile stage. In the treatments with odours of species that share the same mangrove forest microhabitat as U. cordatus, i.e. G. cruentata and a group of five fiddler crab species (mixed-odour treatment), 20 and 10% respectively of the megalopae moulted with a delay of up to 11 days. No specimens metamorphosed after day 39, but megalopae lived up to 93 days. Since only the conspecific- and coexisting-species treatments stimulated development, we hypothesize that Ucides megalopae are able to precisely identify species-habitat-specific settlement cues. This will be investigated in more detail in future studies, which will also test the effects of the odours of the five forest fiddler crab species separately. The impact of the interspecific odour treatments was much smaller than that of the conspecific odours, nevertheless elevated moulting rates of up to 18% relative to seawater may still significantly accelerate the repopulation of U. cordatus in areas lacking conspecifics, e.g. after massive crab mortalities or at first colonization.  相似文献

The role of the cerebral organs of Paranemertes in salinity stress tolerance was investigated by measuring the effect of cerebral organ removal on volume regulation, and by observing the effects of hypo‐osmotic media on the cytology of the cerebral organs. Removal of the cerebral organs decreases the capacity for volume regulation, however, a similar change is seen in sham‐operated worms, indicating that the decreased capacity for regulation is due to the operation itself and not to interference with a physiological role of the cerebral organs. Cytological changes caused by in vivo exposure to dilute sea water are similar to those seen in worms fixed in hypo‐osmotic fixative and therefore do not likely represent a coordinated response of the organs to salinity stress. Also, no exchange of material between the cerebral organs and the vascular system, as reported in some other species (Ling, 1970; Ferraris, 1979), was observed. We conclude that in Paranemertes, the cerebral organs are not involved in osmoregulation.  相似文献
