    Description: Since the discovery of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) at the beginning of 1970s, it has been believed that GnRH is the only hypothalamic neuropeptide that regulates gonadotropin release in vertebrates. In 2000, however, a novel hypothalamic neuropeptide that actively inhibits gonadotropin release was discovered in Japanese quail and termed gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH). Following seventeen years of research has revealed that GnIH is highly conserved across vertebrates including humans, and GnIH is involved in a number of physiological and behavioral functions related to reproduction. The aim of this e-book is to celebrate the discovery of GnIH and the progress of GnIH research by collecting review and original articles from leading scientists in this new research field.

    Notes: [Auszug] Nitric oxide (NO) is well established as a neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems1. More recently, another gas, carbon monoxide (CO) has also been implicated in neurotransmission. In the nervous system CO is formed by a subtype of heme oxygenase (HO) designated HO2 (ref. 2). ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le programme expérimental de 1987 était destiné à déterminer: 1) si les substances dérivées de végétaux et attractives pour Diabrotica pouvaient être encapsulées dans de l'amidon additionné d'acide borique; 2) si différentes formules attireraient les différentes espèces de Diabrotica dans un champ de maïs. L'indol, l'estragol, le vératrol, le phénylacétaldéhyde et le trans-anéthol n'ont pas été retenus, tandis que le trans-cinnamaldéhyde, la \-ionone, le 1,2,4-triméthobenzène, l'eugénol et l'isœugénol ont été encapsulés avec succès dans des pièges attachés à des pieds de maïs (les détails techniques sont fournis). Les pièges ont été relevés tous les 4 jours du 11 juillet au 8 septembre. Les résultats montrent que les substances allélochimiques sont conservées dans la capsule pendant des durées variables et libérées à des concentrations attractives pour les Diabrotica adultes. Un mélange de trans-cinnamaldéhyde et de 1,2,4,-triméthoxybenzène a été la formule la plus efficace, à l'exception des périodes de formation des barbes et du pollen, où aucune formule n'a été attractive. Bien que la variation saisonnière des réactions de Diabrotica limite l'utilisation des substances allélochimiques d'origine végétale, la capsule d'amidon peut être employée pour libérer des substances allélochimiques et constitue un outil potentiel pour la mise au point d'une méthode plus rationnelle de lutte contre Diabrotica.
    Notes: Abstract The concept of encapsulating semiochemicals into a starch matrix is being studied for potential use in corn rootworm (CRW) management programs. During 1987, experiments were conducted to determine: 1) If volatile plant-derived Diabrotica spp. attractants could be encapsulated in a starch borate matrix (SBM), and 2) If various SBM-semiochemical formulations would attract Diabrotica species over time in field corn. Chemical analyses of fresh SBM formulations indicated that indole, estragole, veratrole, phenylacetaldehyde, and trans-anethole were not retained during formulation but trans-cinnamaldehyde, Beta-ionone, 1,2,4,-trimethoxybenzene, eugenol and isœugenol were successfully encapsulated. Encapsulated semiochemical formulations were made into 20 mesh granules, placed in Pherocon ® 1C traps that were tied to corn plants, and sampled for CRW adults every 4 days from 11 July to 8 September. Field data indicated that encapsulated semiochemicals were retained in the SBM for varying lengths of time and were released at rates attractive to CRW adults. A two-component mixture of trans-cinnamaldehyde and 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene was the most effective formulation tested; however, no formulation was effective during corn silking and pollination. Although seasonal variation in CRW response could limit the usefulness of some plant-derived semiochemicals, the starch matrix concept may be useful as a delivery system for semiochemicals and may have potential as a tool that could be used in the development of new more biorational CRW management programs.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé En Caroline du Nord, les adultes diapausants ou non des deux sexes de Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi (SCR) élèvent la température de leurs corps (Tb) au-dessus de la température de l'air ambiant (Ta) en lézardant en plein soleil par jours clairs du printemps et de l'hiver, quand Ta〈13°C (Tb-Ta de 0.8 à 13.3°C). Par temps nuageux, les adultes ne lézardent pas, et Tb dépend beaucoup plus de Ta, de la température du sol (Tg), et de la température du substrat (Ts), que par temps clair. Ts fournit la meilleure idée de Ta que les adultes lézardent ou non; quand SCR lézarde au printemps la corrélation de Ts avec Tb est R2=0.94, de Ta avec Tb:R2=0.41; au printemps, quand ils ne lézardent pas; Ts avec TbR2=0.85 et Ta avec Tb:R2=0.55. Ces résultats suggerent que la thermorégulation de SCR aux basses Ta est une régulation ectothermique par sélection du microhabitat. L'augmentation de Tb par thermorégulation est souvent suffisante pour modifier le comportement de SCR (vol, prise de nourriture, accouplement) et un développement préponte. Ceci pourrait expliquer pourquoi des femelles gravides ont été trouvées un 6 janvier en Caroline du Nord quand Ta était trop basse pour permettre le développement. II paraît important d'inclure la relation entre Tb et Ta par temps nuageux froid, dans tout modèle prédictif, basé sur la notion de degrés-jours, sur le développement de SCR après la diapause ou le dévelopment d'endoparasites de SCR dans la nature.
    Notes: Abstract In North Carolina, southern corn rootworm (SCR), Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi Barber, adults of both sexes (diapausing and nondiapausing) elevate body temperature (Tb) above ambient air temperature (Ta) by basking in direct sunlight on clear fall and winter days when Ta〈13°C (Tb-Ta range: 0.8–13.3°C). On cloudy days, SCR adults did not exhibit basking behavior and Tb was more highly correlated with Ta, ground temperature (Tg), and substrate temperature (Ts) than on clear days. Ts was the best predictor of Tb regardless of Ta and the presence or absence of adult basking behavior (fall basking SCR, Ts vs. Tb: R2=0.94, Ta vs. Tb: R2=0.41; fall nonbasking SCR, Ts vs. Tb: R2=0.85, Ta vs. Tb: R2=0.55). These results suggest that SCR thermoregulation at low Ta is ectothermic regulation by microhabitat selection. Elevation of Tb by thermoregulation was often of sufficient magnitude to affect SCR behavior (flight, feeding, mating) and preovipositional development rate. This could explain why gravid SCR females have been found in North Carolina by 6 January when Ta's were too low for development. The relationship of Tb to Ta on cold sunny days would be important to include in any predictive day-degree model of SCR postdiapause development or SCR endoparasite development in the field.
