1. If fungivorous insect diversity is maintained by host specialisation on particular fungi, it should be higher in the tropics than in temperate or boreal regions owing to high macrofungus species diversity. 2. To reveal the community and food web structure of fungivorous insects on bracket fungi, fungivorous insects were collected from 427 fruiting bodies belonging to 22 genera throughout the development and deterioration process in a 3‐ha plot of lowland dipterocarp tropical rain forest on Borneo Island. 3. Eight hundred and twenty‐nine individuals of 82 coleopteran species in 13 families from 111 fruiting bodies of 15 fungal genera were collected. Tenebrionidae and Staphylinidae were most common. Fifty‐three and 19 insect species were observed on Ganoderma and Phellinus, respectively. The numbers of insect species and individuals on a particular fungal genus were positively correlated with the abundance of that fungal genus. 4. Quantitative food web analysis revealed a high degree of specialisation at the whole‐community level. At least 65% of insect individuals were observed on Ganoderma at every stage of development and deterioration. Diverse insects coexist on one dominant fungal genus, Ganoderma, in contrast to our hypothesis. 5. The high abundance of Ganoderma fruiting bodies, which lack obvious defences against insect feeding, probably influences the bracket fungus–insect food web in this tropical rainforest. 相似文献

Evolution of overwintering strategies in Eurasian species of the Drosophila obscura species group 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The phylogenetic relationship of Eurasian species of the Drosophila obscura species group remains ambiguous in spite of intensive analyses based on morphology, allozymes and DNA sequences. The present analysis based on sequence data for cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) and a-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (Gpdh) suggests that the phylogenetic position of D. alpina is also ambiguous. These ambiguities have been considered to be attributable to rapid phyletic radiation in this group at an early stage of its evolution. Overwintering strategies are diversified among these species: D. alpina and D. subsihestris pass the winter in pupal diapause, D. bifasciata and D. obscura in reproductive diapause, and D. subobscura and D. guanche without entering diapause. This diversity may also suggest rapid radiation at an early phase of adaptations to temperate climates. On the other hand, adult tolerance of cold was closely related to overwintering strategy and distribution: D. obscura and D. bifasciata with reproductive diapause were very tolerant; D. alpina and D. subsilvestris which pass the winter in pupal diapause were less tolerant; D. subobscura having no diapause was moderately tolerant and D. guanche occurring in the Canary Islands was rather susceptible. Tolerance of high temperature at the preimaginal stages seemed to be also associated with overwintering strategy; i.e. lower in the species with pupal diapause than in those with reproductive diapause or without diapause mechanism. 相似文献

Sweet potato roots of variety Norin No. 1 were cut into discs(319 mm), which were incubated at 2829 for 4 days.At 24-hour intervals, activities of 5-dehydroquinate hydro-lyaseand shikimate-NADP oxidoreductase in the buffer extracts ofdiscs were estimated. The activities of both enzymes were significantlydetected in the fresh root tissues. 5-Dehydroquinate hydro-lyaseactivity per fresh weight increased by three to four times within2 days after slicing, and decreased gradually. Shikimate-NADPoxidoreductase activity at the lst-day incubation period wasfound to be about three times as much as the activity foundin the fresh roots, and it remained for 4 days after slicing.The role of these enzymes in polyphenol biosynthesis in thesliced root tissues is discussed. An attempt to detect the enzymicconversion of dehydroquinic acid to quinic acid is also described.

ABSTRACT. Cold seeps are areas of the seafloor where hydrogen sulfide- and methane-rich fluid seepage occurs, often sustaining chemosynthetic ecosystems. It is well known that both archaea and bacteria oxidize sulfides and methane to produce chemical energy and that several endemic animals use this energy to thrive in cold seeps. On the other hand, there is little knowledge regarding diversity and ecology of microbial eukaryotes in this ecosystem. In this study we isolated environmental RNA and DNA from microbial mats of cold-seep sediment in Sagami Bay, Japan, and retrieved eukaryotic small-subunit ribosomal RNA sequences with polymerase chain reaction methods followed by clone library construction. Most RNA-derived clones obtained were from ciliates, although DNA-derived clones were mainly from the fungus Cryptococcus curvatus , suggesting that ciliates are active in the environment. The ciliate sequences were phylogenetically diverse, and represented eight known class lineages as well as undesignated lineages. Because most ciliates are bacterivorous, it is highly likely that the ciliates for which sequences were recovered play a role in the food web of this ecosystem as grazers of microbial mats. In addition, given that the environment studied is under highly reduced (anoxic) conditions, based on the prokaryotic community structure deduced from T-RFLP profiles, the ciliates detected may be obligatory or facultative anaerobes. 相似文献

Effect of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) sexual hormones on the elongation of etiolated Avena coleoptile segments was studied. The elongation was promoted by a hormone excreted by cells of mating type a, but not by α hormone excreted by cells of α type. The effect of the former was as great as that of 5 mg/1 indole-3-acetic acid in the first hour of application. The optimal concentration of a hormone was 10 units/ml. Its growth promoting effect was greatly inhibited by an antiauxin, 2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid. a Hormone increased cell wall extensibility just as auxin does. Testosterone, β-estradiol, progesterone and ergosterol showed very little effect on the elongation of coleoptile segments. 相似文献
