| defensive secretion of rice bug,leptocorisa oratorius fabricius, (hemiptera: coreidae): a unique chemical combination and its toxic, repellent, and alarm properties. | defensive secretion produced by adult males and females ofleptocorisa oratorius, fabricius (hemiptera: coreidae) living on the host plant,oriza sativa, was analyzed by a combined gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy technique. both male and female secretions consisted of two major components: (e)-2-octenal andn-octyl acetate, 76% and 16% (w/w), respectively. the remaining 8% were trace compounds, some of which were identified as hexyl acetate, 3-octenal, 1-octanol, and (z)-3-octenyl acetate. in ... | 1993 | 24249024 |
| histochemical analysis of salivary gland of three insects with different feeding habits. | the histochemical tests have been performed to evaluate the polysaccharide and protein contents of the salivary gland of three insects with different feeding habits. aspongopus janus (hemiptera), laccotrephes maculatus (hemiptera) and larval euprotis scintillans (lepidoptera). while the salivary content of e. scintillans includes both acid (amps) and neutral (nmps) mucopolysaccharides, that of a. janus and l. maculatus has only amps. the amps of e. scintillans and a. janus contains sulphated gro ... | 1980 | 7456634 |
