An ultrastructural study of the anal papillae of aedes campestris larvae and of the hind gut of Aedes campestris and Aedes aegypti larvae

Meredith, Joan January 1971 (has links)
The basic morphology and ultrastructure of the anal papillae of a saline water mosquito larva (Aedes campestris) have been investigated under two physiological conditions: (a) normal hyperosmotic external medium and (b) dilute hyposmotic medium. The ultrastructure of these organs suggests that they are not rudimentary, but rather are made up of cells that are morphologically specialized for transport. The anal papillae appear active in both the normal and dilute media and possible functions under the two physiological conditions are discussed. No major qualitative or quantitative differences were observed with the large change in external medium. This suggests that physiologically-demonstrated adaptive changes may require only minor structural alterations. The morphology and ultrastructure of the hind gut of A. campestris larvae were compared under two physiological conditions; normal (requiring hyporegulation) and dilute (requiring hyperegulation) external medium. No differences which might be associated with hyporegulation were observed. The rectum of A. campestri s was compared to that of Aedes aegypti. The rectum in the former is composed of two regions, an anterior and posterior rectum, while in Aedes aegypti, an exclusively freshwater mosquito larva, the rectum has only a single region. The rectal epithelia in both insects studied have morphological specializations for water and ion transport, and a consideration of quantative differences suggests that the posterior rectum is unique to Aedes campestris and hence could be responsible for the ability of this species to produce hyperosmotic urine. When the posterior rectal epithelium is compared to similar transporting epithelia in previously-studied terrestrial insects, several ultra-structural differences were noted. It is suggested that the mechanism of hyperosmotic urine production in saline water insects may be different from that in terrestrial insects. Several possible mechanisms of hyperosmotic urine production are discussed. / Science, Faculty of / Zoology, Department of / Graduate

Produz um exopolissacarídeo denominado goma xantana, que possui propriedades reológicas únicas sendo utilizada amplamente como agente de suspensão, espessante, emulsionante e estabilizante. É aplicados em indústrias petrolíferas, alimentícias, farmacêuticas, mineração, têxtil, termoquímicas, tintas, cosméticos e produtos agropecuários. O Brasil é um grande produtor mundial de cana de açúcar e álcool etílico. Produtos estes utilizados para a produção de xantana; o primeiro como substrato da fermentação e o segundo para a separação da goma. Apesar de todo esse potencial, o Brasil importa grande quantidade de goma xantana que poderá ser produzida com grande competitividade internacional. Portanto, este trabalho objetivou a utilização da técnica de irradiação ultravioleta, em uma linhagem específica de Xanthomonas campestris, para a obtenção de mutantes estáveis que possam melhorar o rendimento e/ou qualidade de goma obtida. A quantificação foi realizada através da determinação da biomassa, viscosidade, cálculos do rendimento da biomassa e goma. A irradiação UV por 600 segundos causou uma redução de 92,2% na população irradiada e as linhagens sobreviventes foram isoladas e analisadas nos testes de produção e viscosidade da goma xantana. As linhagens I6, I7, I9 e I10 apresentaram um aumento de 102% na produção de goma comparando com a linhagem não irradiada. Em relação à viscosidade do caldo, as linhagens irradiadas obtiveram um aumento de 48% comparadas com as não irradiadas de 20 e 30 rpm. A viscosidade da solução de goma xantana 1%, também foram superiores quando comparadas com a não irradiada.

It produces an exopolysaccharides that forms the xanthan gum, which is used in ample variety as agent of suspension, thicker, emulsifier and stabilizing, and singular rheological properties. It is applied in petroliferous, nourishing, pharmaceutical industries, of mining, textile, thermo chemistries, inks, cosmetics and farming products. Brazil is the worldwide producing greater of sugar cane of sugar and ethyl alcohol. Products theses used for the xanthan production; the first one as substratum of the fermentation, and the second as for the separation of the gum. Despite all this potential, the Brazil imports lot of xanthan gum that could be produced with great international competitiveness. This aimming work the used of the ultraviolet technique of irradiation in a specific strain of Xanthomonas campestris to obtain the mutants that can improve the income and/or quality of produced gum, through the determination of the biomass, viscosity, calculations of the income of the biomass and gum. The UV irradiation during 60 seconds caused a reduce of the 92.2% in the irradiated strains and the survived strains were isolated and analysed in the tests of production and viscosity of xanthan gum. The strains I6, I7, I9 e I10 showed increased in the xanthan production of 102% comparing with the non-irradiated strain. In relation the viscosity of the broth the irradiated strains the increase of 48% in shear rate of 20 and 30 rpm compared with the no irrdiated. The viscosity of the xanthan solution 1% irradiated were higher also whwn compared with no irradiated in both shear rate (20 and 30 rpm.

Condition-dependent sexual selection in a wild population of the field cricket, Gryllus campestris

Skicko, Ian January 2018 (has links)
Condition-dependent sexual selection has the potential to align natural and sexual selection and accelerate adaptation. When the expression of a sexually selected trait is constrained by the condition of the bearer, it offers a reliable signal of quality on which females can base mate choice decisions. Individuals with highly expressed sexually selected traits are therefore expected to possess advantageous genes given the prevailing environmental conditions. Such genes can then spread by their naturally selected benefits as well as their sexually selected advantages, thereby accelerating adaptation. I investigate the effect of condition-dependent traits on mating and signalling behaviour to explore the potential for alignment between natural and sexual selection in the wild. By studying a wild population of the field cricket, Gryllus campestris, I explore condition-dependent sexual selection in a natural context. This avoids some limitations of laboratory studies, which may overestimate effects in the absence of natural and environmental variation. I employ a direct experimental test of the effect of condition on sexually selected traits and mating success, finding that while male acoustic signals are condition-dependent, modest increases in calling effort do not result in increased mating success. I investigate the effect of body size on mating success and find mating success to be independent of body size. I explore the possibility of condition- and context-mediated flexibility in mate-searching tactics, finding that while population density influences tactic choice, individual condition is unlikely to predict which tactic a male will adopt. Finally, I consider the role of female condition in sexual selection and find that mating latency in females is not condition-dependent, but that mating history has an important effect on female choosiness.

The study of survival ecological niches of phytopathogenic bacteria has great importance in the management of plant bacteriosis, since a small amount of inoculum surviving among the cultivation cycle may be sufficient to initiate a new outbreak in the field. Based on this, this study evaluated the survival of Xcc in different experiments using Xcc strain 3098C, resistant to 100 μg/mL of rifampicin. The survival of Xcc as free cells in the soil was evaluated in five experiments, carried out in field conditions, between May and August, 2014. Under controlled conditions, six types of soil were used, sampled from different areas, with or without brassicas cultivation. The colonization of phylloplane and rhizosphere of 26 weed species by Xcc was also evaluated in field experiments, between August, 2014 and October, 2015. In field experiments, Xcc survived between 4 and 7 days in the soil, being directly influenced by temperature and humidity that occurred during the experiments. Under controlled conditions, the bacteria survived for 10 to 24 days, and these periods were influenced by texture, pH and organic matter content in each soil type. In weeds rhizosphere, Xcc had low capacity to survive, at most 28 days on Raphanus raphanistrum. In phylloplane, Xcc survived more than 42 days in Lepidium virginicum, and up to 70 days in Raphanus raphanistrum. Weeds from Amaranthaceae and Poaceae families did not show potential for the epiphytic survival of Xcc.
