Underestimation of carbohydrates by sugar alcohols in classical anthrone-based colorimetric techniques compromises insect metabolic and energetic studies

Autor: Jérôme Casas, Mélanie J.A. Body, David Giron, Jean-Philippe Christidès

Physiologically based metabolic studies usually search for easy, sensitive, and cheap techniques to rapidly estimate biological parameters such as nutrient content. Colorimetric methods to estimate carbohydrates have been extensively used (over 120,0

International audience; Summary. The genus Calliptamus contains swarming orthopterans that cause serious damage in Algerian agricultural systems. However, it remains difficult to identify species within this genus; a thorough understanding of the gro

International audience; In social insects, cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) play a central role in nestmate recognition. CHCs have proved to be useful for identifying species and differentiating populations. In combination with CHCs, isoprenoid soldier

Nestmate recognition in social insects generally involves matching a label to the template that is acquired through the early learning of non-volatile cuticular hydrocarbon cues. However, a possible role of the volatile chemical cues that exist in th

The behavioural and physical mechanisms involved in the tactics used by predators to catch their prey have been explored for a wide variety of vertebrate taxa but most studies have considered the viewpoints of predator and prey independently. We tack
