Brontispa longissima is a serious pest of the coconut palm Cocos nucifera, presumed to have originated in Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. It recently invaded Southeast and East Asia, where outbreaks have been reported. Mitochondrial DNA analysis reveals two cryptic species in B. longissima: one is distributed over a wide area including Asia and the Pacific region (the Asian clade) and the other in a limited area in the Pacific region (the Pacific clade). Recent invasions and outbreaks have been reported only from the area where the Asian clade has been found, suggesting that this clade has become a pest in Asia. To infer if the Asian clade has the ability to establish, spread and outbreak in novel habitats more effectively than the Pacific clade, we compared life‐history traits between the two populations of different clades. The net reproduction rate (R0) was 130.0 and 94.0, the mean length of a generation (T) was 57.7 and 54.7 days, and the intrinsic rate of natural increase (r) was 0.084 and 0.083 per day for the population from Ishigaki Island, Japan (ISH) (the Asian clade) and for the population from Papua New Guinea (PNG) (the Pacific clade), respectively. Although the difference in r was little, the simulated population growth showed that the ISH population can be 1.6 times larger than that of the PNG after ten generations. The rapid population growth of the Asian clade would be partly responsible for its establishment, spread and frequent outbreaks in Asia. 相似文献

The binding mechanism of Streptomyces subtilisin inhibitor and subtilisin BPN′ was studied kinetically with the stopped-flow method by monitoring the protein fluorescence increase due to complex formation. In the lower concentration range of proteins, the reaction followed the second-order kinetics. The pH dependence of the apparent second-order rate constant, kon, suggested the involvement of the two ionizable groups of pKa of 7.8 and 10 in the binding. The activation parameters were calculated from the temperature dependence of the apparent second-order rate constants. The value of the apparent activation energy (EA = 39.7 kJ · mol?1, 9.50 kcal · mol?1) and insensitivity of kon to the viscosity of the medium suggest that the binding is not a simple diffusion-controlled bimolecular association. Further studies with a much broader range of protein concentrations have revealed that the reaction tends to approach first-order kinetics as the inhibitor concentration increases. The binding reaction is, therefore, reconcilable with a two-step mechanism, in which a fast bimolecular association is followed by a slow unimolecular isomerization step; the dissociation constant of the first step, KL, is estimated to be 1.2 × 10?4m and the rate constant of the second step, k+2, to be 770 s?1. It was also found that the increase of tryptophan fluorescence due to the complex formation occurs solely in the rate-determining unimolecular process. 相似文献

Hybridization between native and non‐native species has consequences for survival and growth rates of hybrid offspring, but the influences on their functional roles such as habitat use are little studied and poorly understood. The Japanese native common carp Cyprinus carpio coexist and hybridize with non‐native domesticated carp in natural Japanese lakes. We have combined stable isotope and molecular information to examine whether habitat use of carp varies depending on the degree of hybridization between native and non‐native carp. We sampled 69 carp from Lake Kasumigaura where hybrid swarms between native and non‐native carp are advancing, evaluated the degree of hybridization for each individual by genotyping five single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, and analyzed their carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes. Although we did not find any genetically pure native carp in the lake, the results showed that carp δ13C increased with increasing frequency of non‐native alleles but that δ15N did not change. This indicates that non‐native carp use the littoral zone more frequently than native carp. This difference in habitat use was supported by a multisource mixing model, showing that the contribution of limnetic primary consumers to the diets of non‐native carp was lower than that of individuals with the highest frequency of native alleles. By combining two very different methods, our results thus suggest that multiple‐generation hybridization can influence habitat and resource use. Habitat partitioning should be considered when evaluating the genetic impacts of invasive species and races on native species and ecosystem processes. 相似文献

Organisms that migrate between rivers and the sea inevitably pass through estuarine habitats. Despite the potential importance
of salinity and temperature fluctuations for metabolic adaptation, little is known about the impact of environmental changes
in estuaries on the survival of residents. Ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis) is a migratory fish that inhabits estuarine brackish water in its early life stages. The recent decline in the abundance
of populations ascending into rivers is of concern for local biodiversity. The present study aims to elucidate the ecological
processes that determine the early success of Ayu larvae under variable environmental conditions. The effects of salinity
and water temperature on the endogenous growth of newly hatched larvae from the same brood were examined experimentally based
on morphological and metabolic characteristics. High salinity and high water temperature together appeared to require more
energy for larval osmoregulation, resulting in the acceleration of yolk depletion and reduced growth of the notochord. Increasing
the osmoregulative cost during the yolk-sac stage resulted in the faster induction of a state of starvation. Seawater is considered
to have an adverse effect on the survival of newly hatched larvae, as it lowers the efficiency of foraging and predator avoidance
due to an energetic tradeoff. More attention should be paid to the significance of estuarine environments involving brackish
waters to ensure the early survival of amphidromous fish such as Ayu. 相似文献
