| f-actin, beta-tubulin, aldolase, and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in heteropteran ovarioles--i. immunocytochemical investigations of whole-mounted ovarioles. | the distribution of f-actin, beta-tubulin, aldolase, and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (fbpase) in ovarioles of four heteropteran species (ilyocoris cimicoides, coreus marginatus, lygus pratensis, and notostira elongata) was investigated biochemically and immunocytochemically. aldolase was found to be uniformly distributed in the cytoplasm of trophocytes and follicular cells, with the highest concentration in prefollicular cells. its concentration in follicular cells increased during differentiati ... | 2005 | 15947967 |
| localization of interchromatin granule cluster and cajal body components in oocyte nuclear bodies of the hemipterans. | an oocyte nucleus contains different extrachromosomal nuclear domains collectively called nuclear bodies (nbs). in the present work we revealed, using immunogold labeling electron microscopy, some marker components of interchromatin granule clusters (igcs) and cajal bodies (cbs) in morphologically heterogeneous oocyte nbs studied in three hemipteran species: notostira elongata, capsodes gothicus (miridae) and velia caprai (veliidae). both igc and cb counterparts were revealed in oocyte nuclei of ... | 2007 | 17889915 |
| niche use patterns among some stenodemini (heteroptera: miridae) of limestone grassland, and an investigation of the possibility of interspecific competition between notostira elongata geoffroy and megaloceraea recticornis geoffroy. | it was suggested in a previous paper that mortality patterns in two species of stenodemini (m. recticornis and n. elongata) could be explained by interspecific competition (gibson 1976a)such competition would have been generated by seasonal changes in the foodplants used by the two species resulting in both species using virtually the same range of plants at one time of year.as with a number of phytophagous insects (mcneill and southwood 1978) many changes in foodplant use could be explained by ... | 1980 | 28309087 |
| the importance of foodplants for the distribution and abundance of some stenodemini (heteroptera: miridae) of limestone grassland. | the distributions and abundances of five species of stenodemini (heteroptera) and one of rhopalidae (heteroptera) were monitored over a 2-year period on a 1 ha square of limestone grassland near oxford.at the same time, the distribution of all grass species in the area was mapped.by comparing the distributions of insects with their potential foodplants, and by carrying out feeding trials on selected insects, an outline of the foodplants selected by different species of insect was built up.each i ... | 1976 | 28309006 |
