This study examines the larval development, metamorphosis and postlarval stage of Venerupis pullastra in relation to growth, lipids content and fatty acid composition, specifically those believed to be essential for most bivalves (i.e. 20:5n‐3 and 22:6n‐3). Clam larvae were fed with two species of microalgae supplied individually or mixed –Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis suecica–species normally used in bivalve hatcheries. Larvae fed with T. suecica showed a progressive accumulation of lipids and fatty acids but did not survive to metamorphosis. Contrarily, larvae fed with I. galbana or mixed diet showed a progressive decline in lipids and essential fatty acids (20:5n‐3 and 22:6n‐3) from the pediveliger stage onwards, and a survival rate of 95% until the start of metamorphosis. The lower content in n‐6 and the absence of 22:6n‐3 in T. suecica diet might contribute to the massive mortality observed for larvae fed with this diet. That diet seems to fail in the supply of some particular nutrient that allows energetic transformation of reserves for growth and metamorphosis. Nevertheless, larvae fed on mixture diet showed higher weight growth values at postlarval stage than those larvae fed on I. galbana diet. 相似文献

C-type lectins (CTLs) are a superfamily of Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate-recognition proteins, and an important pattern recognition receptor (PRR) in insect innate immunity which can mediate humoral and cellular immunity in insects. In this study, we report a novel dual carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) CTL from Plutella xylostella which we designate PxIML. PxIML is a protein with a 969 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding 322 amino acids, containing a signal peptide and a dual-CRD with EPN (Glu124-Pro125-Asn126) and QPD (Gln274-Pro275-Asp276) motifs. The expression of PxIML mRNA in the fat body was significantly higher than in hemocytes and midgut. The relative expression levels of PxIML in the whole insect and the fat body were significantly inhibited after infection with Bacillus thuringiensis 8010 (Bt8010) at 18 h, while they were significantly upregulated after infection with Serratia marcescens IAE6 or Pichia pastoris. The recombinant PxIML (rPxIML) protein could bind to the tested pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and the bacteria of Enterobacter sp. IAE5, S. marcescens IAE6, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli BL21, and Bt8010 in a Ca2+-dependent manner, however, it showed limited binding to the fungus, P. pastoris. The rPxIML exhibited strong activity in the presence of Ca2+ to agglutinate Bt8010, Enterobacter sp. IAE5 and S. aureus, but it only weakly agglutinated with E. coli BL21, and could not agglutinate with S. marcescens IAE6 or P. pastoris. Furthermore, the rPxIML could bind to hemocytes, promote the adsorption of hemocytes to beads, and enhance the phenoloxidase (PO) activity and melanization of P. xylostella. Our results suggest that PxIML plays an important role in pathogen recognition and in mediating subsequent humoral and cellular immunity of P. xylostella. 相似文献

Reproductive and life history patterns in reptiles are tightly related to the environmental conditions, so male reproductive cycles have been historically characterized as continuous, for tropical lizards, or seasonal, for temperate lizards. However, males of Liolaemus and Phymaturus lizards (Liolaemidae), from cold temperate climates of high altitudes or latitudes in Argentina and Chile, have developed a variety of reproductive cycles to coordinate with the short female reproductive season and to deal with the low frequency of reproductive females in the population. Using gonadal histology and morphological analysis, we describe the male reproductive biology, fat storage and sexual dimorphism of the viviparous lizards Liolaemus sarmientoi and Liolaemus magellanicus that inhabit an austral grass steppe at 51°S, in the southern limit of the American continent. Males of L. sarmientoi and L. magellanicus are reproductively available during the entire activity season of approximately 5 months. In addition, males of both species exhibit greater body sizes than females in morphological variables relevant in sexual selection. Meanwhile, females of both species exhibit larger inter‐limb length than conspecific males, which suggests fecundity selection to increase space for a larger litter size. The continuous sperm production throughout the activity season allows these liolaemids to mate at any time when females ovulate, representing a selective advantage to deal with the short activity season and the adversities of the cold environment they inhabit. 相似文献

The production of transgenic animals is an important tool for experimental and applied biology. Over the
years, many approaches for the production of transgenic animals have been tried, including pronuclear
microinjection, sperm-mediated gene transfer, transfection of male germ cells, somatic cell nuclear transfer
and the use of lentiviral vectors. In the present study, we developed a new transgene delivery approach, and
we report for the first time the production of transgenic animals by co-injection of DNA and round spermatid
nuclei into non-fertilized mouse oocytes (ROSI). The transgene used was a construct containing the human CMV
immediate early promoter and the enhanced GFP gene. With this procedure, 12% of the live offspring we obtained
carried the transgene. This efficiency of transgenic production by ROSI was similar to the efficiency by
pronuclear injection or intracytoplasmic injection of male gamete nuclei (ICSI). However, ICSI required fewer
embryos to produce the same number of transgenic animals. The expression of Egfp mRNA and
fluorescence of EGFP were found in the majority of the organs examined in 4 transgenic lines generated by
ROSI. Tissue morphology and transgene expression were not distinguishable between transgenic animals produced
by ROSI or pronuclear injection. Furthermore, our results are of particular interest because they indicate
that the transgene incorporation mediated by intracytoplasmic injection of male gamete nuclei is not an
exclusive property of mature sperm cell nuclei with compact chromatin but it can be accomplished with immature
sperm cell nuclei with decondensed chromatin as well. The present study also provides alternative procedures
for transgene delivery into embryos or reconstituted oocytes. 相似文献
