    Mating behavior and mate recognition pheromone blocking of male receptors in Brachionus plicatilis Müller (Rotifera) (1995)
    Springer
    Hydrobiologia 313-314 (1995), S. 105-110 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-5117
    Keywords: behavior ; mating ; pheromone ; receptors ; rotifers

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Copulatory behavior of three S and three L type B. plicatilis strains from different geographic areas was analyzed. A 29 KD surface glycoprotein on females, characterized as a Mate Recognition Pheromone (MRP), binds to receptors in the corona of males and blocks mate recognition. Blocking was observed in all S and L strains even though the MRP was isolated from a single L-type strain. Binding was quantified using image analysis and a 20-fold difference was observed among strains. A direct relationship between the male discrimination of females and the intensity of MRP binding to male receptors was found. This relationship might be useful as a tool to examine variation in the mate recognition systems of other rotifer species.

    Cross-mating tests re-discovered: a tool to assess species boundaries in rotifers (1998)
    Springer
    Hydrobiologia 287-388 (1998), S. 109-115 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-5117
    Keywords: behavior ; mating ; evolution ; taxonomy

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The recent isolation of a mate recognition pheromone in the marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis Müller has shed new light on the mate recognition system of rotifers. One result is improved understanding of the importance of mating behavior as a highly efficient process used by rotifers to choose conspecifics. There are many differences in the main characteristics of mating behavior in members of five different families of rotifers. The present work describes the use of these characteristics to assess species boundaries, especially where boundaries between two or more species are unclear. The method proposed here can assess quantitatively the response of males of one species to females of a questionable taxon by measuring the percentage of matings initiated and the number of completed copulations. The data generated can then be used together with molecular, morphological, and other data to determine the species boundaries. This approach can help distinguish between morphological differences resulting from evolutionary divergence of species and morphological differences induced by environmental or ecological factors.

    Considerations about the chirality of the saturated six-membered rings with two or more heteroatoms (1996)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell
    Chirality 8 (1996), S. 311-315 
    Details
    ISSN: 0899-0042
    Keywords: virtual triligand chiral center ; chirality of saturated heterocycles with six-membered ring ; rules for the specification of the configuration ; desymmetrization of adamantane ; Chemistry ; Organic Chemistry
    Source: Wiley InterScience Backfile Collection 1832-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: The chirality of the title heterocycles is discussed considering their genesis by desymmetrization of the corresponding adamantanes. Some rules for the specification of the absolute configurations of the enantiomers (R or S) for this type of compounds are proposed. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Synthesis and Stereochemistry of Some 1,3-Dioxane Diacetals of o-Phthaldialdehyde (1997)
    Weinheim : Wiley-Blackwell
    Liebigs Annalen 1997 (1997), S. 2371-2377 
    Details
    ISSN: 0947-3440
    Keywords: Conformational analysis ; NMR spectra ; Solid-state structure ; 1,3-Dioxane derivatives of o-phthaldialdehyde ; Chromatographic separation of cis,trans isomers ; Chemistry ; Organic Chemistry
    Source: Wiley InterScience Backfile Collection 1832-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: The stereochemistry of some diacetals of o-phthaldialdehyde with 2-substituted-1,3-propanediols was studied using NMR spectroscopy and the solid-state molecular structure of one compound established by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry. The cis and trans isomers of some diacids and diesters, produced as derivatives bearing the desired substituents in the 5 and 5′ positions of the heterocycles, have been separated by preparative TLC and identified by their NMR spectra.
