Abstract The consequences of sub-lethal levels ambient air pollution are underestimated for insects, example, the accumulation particulate matter on sensory receptors located their antennae may have detrimental effects to function. Here we show that density houseflies ( Musca domestica ) collected from an urban environment increases with severity pollution. A combination behavioural assays, electroantennograms and transcriptomic analysis provide consistent evidence a brief exposure...
We analyze the multicast performance over spectrum elastic optical networks. Results demonstrate flexible allocation provides lower blocking probability for compared to that in ITU-T grid-based WDM
The elaborate bipectinate antennae of male moths are thought to increase their sensitivity female sex pheromones, and so should be favoured by selection. Yet simple filamentous the most common structure among moths. stereotypic arrangements scales on surface may resolve this paradox. We use computational fluid dynamics techniques model how affect passage different particles in airflow across flagellum both small large found that provide an effective solution improve efficacy antennae,...
Social insects use cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) to convey different social signals, including colony or nest identity. Despite extensive investigations, the exact source and identity of CHCs that act as nest-specific identification signals remain largely unknown. Perhaps this is because studies identify CHC typically organic solvents extract a single sample from entire animal, thereby analysing cocktail chemicals may serve several signal functions. We took novel approach by first...
Pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma (PEAC) is a rare subtype of pulmonary that lacks effective treatment. The purpose this research was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognosis PEAC, as well impact relevant factors on survival, thus providing reference for management patients with disease.For study, we gathered data from 26 PEAC in Affiliated Cancer Hospital Zhengzhou University June 2014 2021. We used SEER*Stat software V8.3.5 download Surveillance, Epidemiology,...
This article establishes the DenseNet based on multilayer network optimization (DenseNet‐MNO) using a binary dataset of pneumothorax. method optimizes multiple layers and ensures convergence neural by reducing learning rate with each iteration. Then, cross‐entropy loss function accuracy evaluation iteratively evaluated effectiveness deep model conducted experiments. The experimental results show that during iteration process, is reduced, improved. DenseNet‐MNO classification has strong...
We experimentally demonstrate a novel optical physical-layer network coding (PNC) scheme over time-division multiplexing (TDM) passive (PON). Full-duplex error-free communications between units (ONUs) at 2.5 Gb/s are shown for all-optical virtual private (VPN) applications. Compared to the conventional half-duplex set-up, our can increase capacity by 100% with power penalty smaller than 3 dB. Synchronization of two ONUs is not required proposed VPN
Abstract Antennae are among the most elaborate sensory organs in adult flies, and they provide rich information for phylogenic studies. The antennae of five out eight species Gasterophilus Leach ( G. haemorrhoidalis (Linnaeus), intestinalis (De Geer), nasalis nigricornis (Loew) pecorum (Fabricius)), were examined using scanning electron microscopy. general morphology, including distribution, type, size, ultrastructure antennal sensilla presented, definition auriculate pits updated clarified....
The morphology and ultrastructure of the antennal sensilla male Hydrotaea (Hydrotaea) armipes (Fallén) are examined via scanning electron microscopy in order to highlight importance as a source morphological characters for taxonomy phylogeny Hydrotaea. Antennal scape pedicel have only one type sensilla, sharp-tipped chaetic whereas funiculus possesses several types including trichoid two subtypes basiconic coeloconic clavate sensilla. These results compared with previously published studies...
The proximity pattern and radial distribution of chromosome territories within spherical nuclei are random non-random, respectively. Whether this is conserved in the partitioned or lobed polymorphonuclear cells unclear. Here we use paint technology to examine all 46 chromosomes hundreds single human neutrophils - an abundant famously immune cell. By comparing randomly shuffled controls validating with orthogonal conformation capture technology, show for first time that distribute neutrophil...
The antennae are the main olfactory organ of flies, playing key roles in their survival and success all life stages. Antennal ultrastructural morphology has been well described representative species most calyptrate families, yet only a few studies have focused on Sarcophagidae species, those with ecological medical relevance. types, shapes, distribution, density antennal sensilla nine studied detail scanning electron microscopy, including Miltogramminae: Metopia campestris (Fallén)...
A 70-km-reach bi-directional WDM-PON with 10-Gb/s downstream Manchesterduobinary signal and 1.25-Gb/s upstream re-modulated NRZ-OOK signals is demonstrated, effective mitigation of Rayleigh backscattered noise.
Task allocation ensures a high level of organization within social insect colonies. Workers reveal their task assignment through cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) signals. The source and chemical composition these signals are largely unknown. We ask whether recognition located on particular body parts workers Australian meat ants (Iridomyrmex purpureus). analysed the CHC profile antennae, legs abdomens engaged in different tasks. Discriminant analysis showed that leg is best indicator...
Abstract Antennae and maxillary palps are the most important chemical reception organs of flies. So far, morphology antennae flies feeding habits have been well described, except for that relatively rare aquatic predatory species. This study describes sensilla on three Lispe species: longicollis , L . orientalis pygmaea Types, distribution, density characterised via light scanning electron microscopy. One type mechanoreceptors is found antennal scape. Mechanoreceptors (two subtypes) one...
Despite the development of molecular techniques, morphological phylogeny still remains integral in underpinning relationship between some clades Calyptratae, especially ones with fast radiation, such as those Oestridae (Diptera: Brachycera), yet few synapomorphy has been proposed for adults this family. Using scanning electron microscopy, we investigated structure and ultrastructure antennae maxillary palps adult Oestromyia leporina (Hypodermatinae, Oestridae). One type trichoid sensillum...
The alimentary canal of Fannia canicularis was studied intensively for the first time, highlighting description morphological characteristics and providing detailed morphometric data. Two pairs Malpighian tubules with considerably different length were found which has been rarely documented Calyptratae flies before. Furthermore, stout cardia sinewy crop samples ob- served supposed to be responsible energy needed support long- time swarming behavior species.
Lispe Latreille (Diptera: Muscidae) are a widespread group of predatory flies that inhabit semi-aquatic environments. Previous studies on this genus have mainly focused morphological classification, so molecular data entirely lacking, and there has been no attempt at phylogenetic placement the or resolution intragenic relationships. To address to fill its gap in Tree Life Web Project, 58 spp. (covering 11 out 13 acknowledged species groups) were selected reconstruct phylogeny using Maximum...
Multi-terminal flexible DC transmission technology is considered as an important means to realize the interconnection between two remote area power grids. Due difficulty of clearing side faults in multi-terminal systems, a scheme using resistive-type superconducting fault current limiter (RSFCL) limit DC-side level proposed. The effects RSFCL on dynamics systems under different grid strengths are analyzed based PSCAD / EMTDC simulation platform. It found that presented can improve dynamic...
