The larval and pupal morphology of Atypophthalmus inustus (Meigen, 1818) are described for the first time. The main diagnostic characters are the following: head capsule massive,
frons with 3 short terminal projections, hypostomium with 11 teeth and long narrow split, hypopharynx and labium with well-developed
conical teeth, stigmal area with 2 long ventral pigmented spots. 相似文献

The classification methodology based on morphometric data and supervised artificial neural networks (ANN) was tested on five
fly species of the parasitoid genera Tachina and Ectophasia (Diptera, Tachinidae). Objects were initially photographed, then digitalized; consequently the picture was scaled and measured
by means of an image analyser. The 16 variables used for classification included length of different wing veins or their parts
and width of antennal segments. The sex was found to have some influence on the data and was included in the study as another
input variable. Better and reliable classification was obtained when data from both the right and left wings were entered,
the data from one wing were however found to be sufficient. The prediction success (correct identification of unknown test
samples) varied from 88 to 100% throughout the study depending especially on the number of specimens in the training set.
Classification of the studied Diptera species using ANN is possible assuming a sufficiently high number (tens) of specimens
of each species is available for the ANN training. The methodology proposed is quite general and can be applied for all biological
objects where it is possible to define adequate diagnostic characters and create the appropriate database. 相似文献

There are three most important bacterial causative agents of serious infections that could be misused for warfare purposes:
Bacillus anthracis (the causative agent of anthrax) is the most frequently mentioned one; however, Fracisella tularensis (causing tularemia) and Yersinia pestis (the causative agent of plague) are further bacterial agents enlisted by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention into the category A of potential biological weapons. This review intends to summarize basic information about these bacterial
agents. Military aspects of their pathogenesis and the detection techniques suitable for field use are discussed. 相似文献

The life cycle and developmental stages of Aylax hypecoi (Trotter, 1913, Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Aylacini) were studied in detail. Aylax hypecoi is known to induce galls in fruits of two Hypecoum species — H. imberbe and H. geslini (Papaveraceae) and the larva develops in host plant fruits. The morphology and development of egg, larva and pupa were investigated, which
has previously not been done. The shape and size of terminal-instar larvae and associated galls are sex-specific. Overwintering
stage, adult emergence and flying periods, and egg productivity were studied also. 相似文献

Data on the biology and morphological characters of the larva and pupa of Lipsothrix nobilis Loew, 1873 are given for the first time. The diagnostic characters for the genus Lipsothrix Loew and the species L. errans (Walker) are specified. The larvae differ in the structure of the frontal plate, coloration of the stigmal area, and structure
of the hypostomium. The pupae differ in the shape of cuticular structures of the abdominal segments and structure of the spiracles
and terminal dents. The larvae inhabit the light decaying moist wood of fallen trunks. 相似文献

Columba livia is an important reservoir and carrier of Cryptococcus neoformans, Cryptococcus uniguttulatus, Cryptococcus laurentii and Cryptococcus albidus. Upper digestive tract of this species is also known as a habitat for Cryptococcus neoformans. Given the increasing clinical interest of this microorganism, 331 swabs from crop and 174 dropping samples from pigeon lofts
in Grand Canary Island have been studied. The obtained results show an extensive presence samples 81 positive (24.47%) of
Cryptococcus spp. in analysed crops: 32 (9.66%) for C. neoformans, 24 (7.2%) for C. uniguttulatus, 23 (6.9%) for C. albidus and 2 (0.6%) for C. laurentii. In the same way, Cryptococcus spp was also isolated in 82 (47.13%), dropping samples: C. neoformans in 59 (33.9%), C. uniguttulatus, in 9 (5.17%), C. laurentii in 8 (4.59%) and C. albidus in 6 (3.44%) of the investigated samples, respectively. The cryptococcosis produced by species of cryptococci other than C. neoformans has become more important during the last decade, supporting the study on the role of pigeon in the epidemiology of this
disease. 相似文献

Summary. The paper describes two methods of the synthesis of ethyl (3R,4S)- and (3S,4S)-4-[(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino]-5-[(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)amino]-3-hydroxypentanoates, useful for the syntheses of edeine analogs. Differently N-protected (S)-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid was used as a substrate in both procedures. The absolute configuration of newly generated asymmetric
carbon atoms C-3 in β-hydroxy-γ,δ-diamino products was assigned by means of 1H NMR spectroscopy after their transformation into corresponding piperidin-2-ones.

Interaction of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus 100NCJB with bacteria Campylobacter jejuni (strains 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) and Helicobacter pylori, strain TX30a, was confirmed. The results indicate that lytic activity of bdellovibrios both in liquid media and cells attached
to a surface was observed. The potential use of the antimicrobial activity of predatory bacteria for environmental bioprotection
and public health is discussed. 相似文献

The anal sacs of Thalassema thalassemum consist of an elongate tubular invagination (end sac) that is uniformly covered with numerous sessile ciliated funnels. While
the funnels are composed of multi-ciliated, non-muscular cells and possess a ciliated neck-like constriction, the end sacs
are lined by a simple epithelium of large, irregularly formed and sparsely ciliated cells that include masses of secretory
granules. Podocytes are incorporated in the peritoneum that surrounds the anal sacs. A muscle grid consisting of inner longitudinal,
outer circular and additional diagonal fibres that branch off of the circular fibres is embedded in the matrix between the
end sac epithelium and peritoneum. Major structural differences between the hindgut and anal sacs support the hypothesis that
the anal sacs are not gut derivatives but are instead part of a modified metanephridial system. Comparison of the anal sac
morphology in Echiura reveals that T. thalassemum shares a tubular end sac with all known members of Thalassematinae and Ikedaidae, as well as with some members of Bonelliidae
and Echiurinae, while the sessile funnels are apomorphic for the Thalassematinae. 相似文献

ITS sequences determined for 53 Erysiphe specimens on Syringa and Ligustrum collected in Europe, East Asia, and North and South America were divided into two ITS groups, S and K types. Phylogenetic
analysis showed that these two ITS types do not share a common ancestor and form separate clades. The K type on Ligustrum was identified as Erysiphe ligustri based on the three-dimensional branching pattern of appendages. Morphological observations showed that there are some morphological
differences—pigmentation of appendages and number of ascospores per ascus—between the S and K types on Syringa. Based on these morphological observations, the S and K types on Syringa were identified as E. syringae and E. syringae-japonicae, respectively. The recent abundant production of chasmothecia by lilac powdery mildew in Europe was caused by E. syringae-japonicae introduced from East Asia. DNA sequence analyses of the rDNA ITS region and the 28S rDNA, tub2, CYP51, and Chs1 genes did not support an interspecific hybrid origin for E. syringae-japonicae. Haplotype analysis suggested that E. syringae originated in North America and independently migrated to East Asia and Europe/South America. 相似文献

The distribution ranges of Dicraeus nartshukae Kanmiya (Diptera, Chloropidae) and its host plant Leymus mollis (Trin.) Pilger are discussed. Larvae of D. nartshukae develop in unripe seeds of Leymus mollis but not in the seeds of the closely related L. villosissimus and L. interior. The spikes, spikelets, and glumes of L. mollis are larger than in other species, and usually softly hirsute. The glumes of L. villosissimus and L. interior possess dense hirsute pubescence which appears to be unfavorable for oviposition of Dicraeus nartshukae. The absence of seedeating Dicraeus on L. villosissimus and L. interior is an additional argument in support of distinctness of these species. The distribution range of Dicraeus nartshukae is meridional, or Pacific littoral. 相似文献

The salt tolerance of two representatives of genus Spirulina (Arthrospira) Spirulina platensis and Spirulina maxima has been investigated. They both are the wide-spread objects of photobiotechnology and it has been shown that the content
of 5–15 % sea-water in medium has not caused the decreasing of biomass yield more than 15–20% as compared with control. The
further decreasing of biomass was proportionate to sea-water content in medium. The investigation of reactivity of native
(intravital) exometabolites secreted into cultural medium has showed that the sea-water content influence the oxidative activity
(OA) of exometabolites and hour’s rhythmics. 相似文献

To overexpress the chitosanase gene (csn) in F. solani, a vector based on pCAMBIA 1300 was constructed. The csn gene, which is under control of the Aspergillus nidulans
gpdA promoter and A. nidulans trpC terminator, was introduced back into the F. solani genome by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation, and the herbicide-resistance gene bar from Streptomyces hygroscopicus was used as the selection marker. Transformants which showed a significant increase in chitosanase production (~2.1-fold
than control) were obtained. Southern blot analysis indicated that most transformants had a single-copy T-DNA integration. 相似文献
