Abstract Herbivorous insects have evolved many mechanisms to overcome plant chemical defences, including detoxification and sequestration. Herbivores may also use toxic plants reduce parasite infection. Plant toxins could directly interfere with parasites or enhance endogenous immunity. Alternatively, favour down‐regulation of immunity by providing an alternative (exogenous) defence against parasitism. However, studies on genomewide transcriptomic responses defences the interplay between...
Dry weight and nitrogen (N) partitioning of sand-cultured young jack pine ( Pinus banksiana Lamb.) seedlings under controlled environments were studied 3, 6, 9, 12 and/or 15 weeks after the initiation six dynamic N supply treatments. The other nutrients was maintained at optimal levels. Total dry varied widely among treatments whole plant total concentration ranged from 10 to 32 mg g -1 d. wt most sampling intervals. Whole changed, with time, according three distinct patterns: (1) stable;...
Aphids, like most animals, mount a diverse set of defenses against pathogens. For aphids, two the best studied are symbiont-conferred protection and transgenerational wing induction. Aphids can harbor bacterial symbionts that provide pathogens, parasitoids predators, as well other environmental stressors. In response to signals danger, aphids also protect not themselves but their offspring by producing more winged than unwinged way ensure progeny may be able escape deteriorating conditions....
Humoral and cellular immune responses provide animals with major defences against harmful pathogens. While it is often assumed that genes undergo rapid diversifying selection, this assumption has not been tested in many species. Moreover, likely different classes of experience levels evolutionary constraint, resulting varying selection patterns. We examined the patterns for a set 91 canonical North American monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus), using as an outgroup closely related soldier...
The paper analysed the impact of accessibility urban parks within third ring on housing prices Fuzhou through network analysis and SPSS correlation based data sources like remote-sensing image, web crawling road network, discovering that: (1)The density residence decreases from centre to edges; (2) price, ranging between 18000 28000 RMB/ m2, peaks in city centre; (3) For houses Fuzhou, Gulou District enjoys greatest access while Cangshan is poorest this regard. (4) could be rated as A or A-...

ABSTRACT Immune genes presumably rapidly evolve as pathogens exert strong selection pressures on host defense, but the evolution of immune is also constrained by trade-offs with other biological functions and shaped environmental context. Thus, may exhibit complex evolutionary patterns, particularly when organisms disperse to or live in variable environments. We examined patterns full set known canonical within among populations monarch butterflies ( Danaus plexippus ), relative a closely...

Abstract Under the background of response to call rural civilization, it aims solve problems serious cultural deficiency and withered landscape in village folklore. By means analysis on overall basic conditions Tianzhu where She-ethnic minority group inhabiting in, thesis cleared analyzed culture from perspective material immaterial level basis a gene. And then atlas gene area Fujian will be constructed. Through combination with design elements for landscape, puts forward solutions...
Taking the park green space in Weidu District of Xuchang City as research object, spatial service area under mode pedestrian transportation is analyzed by using grid analysis function geographic information system (GIS). The results show that walking area, only less than 1/10 residents can walk to within 10 minutes, and nearly 1/5 enjoy urban 20 minutes. Under 30 accessibility 36.63%, which mainly concentrated new area. There are many parks with large scale. number old small relatively poor....
