    Notizen: Abstract The detection of a chemical alarm pheromone may allow receivers to avoid areas where a predator has captured the prey's conspecifics. We marked minnow traps with either brook stickleback (Culaea inconstans) skin extract or a control of distilled water and tested whether sticklebacks avoided the skin extract marked traps in a natural habitat. Significantly more sticklebacks were captured in traps marked with control water, thereby demonstrating avoidance of conspecific skin extract. The stickleback captured in traps marked with conspecific extract were significantly smaller than those captured in traps marked with control water, implicating ontogenetic factors (i.e., experience or physiological development) in the development of the response. We also captured significantly fewer finescale dace (Chrosomus neogaeus) and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) in traps marked with skin extract. These data suggest that dace and minnows may benefit by avoiding areas where predators have recently captured sticklebacks.

    Notizen: Abstract Solitary fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were rendered anosmic and exposed to chemical stimuli from a predatory northern pike (Esox lucius) to determine the role of olfaction in the minnow's ability to recognize predators on the basis of chemical stimuli. Anosmic fish did not respond to the pike stimuli with a typical fright reaction, while control fish, with intact olfactory receptors, did. These results demonstrate that the olfactory system is necessary for the ability of fathead minnows to recognize northern pike as a predator and that the gustatory and single-celled chemosensory systems are not sufficient for this recognition in the absence of olfactory input. Olfactory impairment was behaviorally confirmed by exposing minnows to alarm substance (Schreckstoff).

    Notizen: Abstract We exposed the freshwater amphipod Gammarus lacustris, to chemical stimuli from injured conspecifics and to chemical stimuli from two types of natural predators: dragonfly larvae (Aeshna eremita) and northern pike (Esox lucius). Exposure to all three stimuli caused G. lacustris to reduce significantly its level of activity relative to activity recorded in response to a distilled water control. The similarity in responses to chemicals associated with predators and to injured conspecifics suggests the presence of an alarm pheromone within the body tissues of G. lacustris. In response to chemical stimuli from pike, G. lacustris tended to reduce its time in the water column and spend more time near the bottom of the test aquaria. However, no such trend was apparent in response to chemical stimuli from dragonfly larvae. The differences in response to chemical stimuli from pike and larval dragonflies suggest that G. lacustris does not have a rigid behavioral response to predation risk; instead, antipredator behavior may be modified to maximize avoidance of predators that are active in different microhabitats.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Abstract Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from 13 cytoplasmic male-sterile (cms) lines from diverse sources were characterized by Southern blot hybridization to pearl millet and maize mtDNA probes. Hybridization patterns of mtDNA digested with PstI, BamHI, SmaI or XhoI and probed with 13.6-, 10.9-, 9.7- or 4.7-kb pearl millet mtDNA clones revealed similarities among the cms lines 5141 A and ICMA 1 (classified as the S-A1 type of cytoplasm based on fertility restoration patterns), PMC 30A and ICMA 2. The remaining cms lines formed a distinct group, within which three subgroups were evident. Among the maize mitochondiral gene clones used, the coxI probe revealed two distinct groups of cytoplasms similar to the pearl millet mtDNA clones. The atp9 probe differentiated the cms line 81 A4, derived from P. glaucum subsp. monodii, while the coxII gene probe did not detect any polymorphism among the cms lines studied. MtDNA digested with BamHI, PstI or XhoI and hybridized to the atp6 probe revealed distinct differences among the cms lines. The maize atp6 gene clone identified four distinct cytoplasmic groups and four subgroups within a main group. The mtDNA fragments hybridized to the atp6 gene probe with differing intensities, suggesting the presence of more than one copy of the gene in different stoichiometries. Rearrangements involving the coxI and/or rrn18-rrn5 genes (mapped within the pearl millet clones) probably resulted in the S-A1 type of sterility. Rearrangements involving the atp6 gene (probably resulting in chimeric form) may be responsible for male sterility in other cms lines of pearl millet.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) restriction endonuclease fragment patterns and patterns of mtDNA hybridized by mitochondrial gene probes were used to study phylogenetic relationships of seven Pennisetum species, including five P. americanum (pearl millet) ecotypes and a reference species from the distantly related genus, Panicum. The restriction patterns of the pearl millet ecotypes were uniform with the exception of the ecotype collected in Ethiopia. The probe hybridization method revealed more variability, with both the Rhodesian and Ethiopian ecotypes differing from the others and from each other. Considerable restriction pattern polymorphism was noted among different species of Pennisetum, and Panicum. Significant relationships were noted of Pennisetum polystachyon to P. pedicellatum and of P. purpureum to P. squamulatum using the restriction pattern method. In addition to those relationships, the hybridization method showed relationships of pearl millet to P. purpureum and to P. squamulatum. The relationships noted between species by the hybridization method agreed more closely to the cytological data than those indicated by the restriction pattern method. Therefore, the hybridization method appeared to be the preferred method for studying species relationships. The mitochondrial genome size of pearl millet was calculated to be 407 kb and the mitochondrial genome sizes of other Pennisetum species ranged from 341 to 486 kb.

    Notizen: Summary The effects of long-term tissue culture on mitochondrial DNAs were examined using rice (Oryza sativa) cell suspension cultures. Mitochondrial DNAs were isolated from P. I. 353705 (an indica subspecies of rice similar to ‘Asam 5’), its anther-culture-derived line BL2 (an 8-year-old cell suspension culture), and five other cell lines (A1, A7, A11, A13, and A23), also derived from BL2 and independently selected for resistance to the lysine analog, S-(2-amino)-ethyl-L-cysteine. Mitochondrial DNAs of the rice lines were digested with ten restriction endonucleases (BamHI, BglII, EcoRI, EcoRV, HindIII, PstI, PvuII, SalI, SmaI, and XhoI), electrophoresed, and transferred to nylon membranes. Southern blots were hybridized with one rice and five maize probes containing mitochondrial genes. The restriction patterns of ten Southern blots and hybridization patterns of 60 endonuclease/probe combinations were analyzed. DNAs from all sources produced unique restriction patterns when digested with HindIII or BglII; with the other endonucleases an array of similarities and differences was observed. Lines BL2 and A11 showed unique patterns with all restriction endonucleases tested. No hybridization pattern differences were observed among the lines when probes containing apt9 and atpA were used. However, extensive hybridization pattern differences were observed with coxI, coxII, rrn18-rrn5, and atp6 probes. Both restriction and hybridization patterns revealed variation due to tissue culture effect. Coxll was most efficient in revealing the uniqueness of BL2. Among the analog selected lines A11 was most divergent, and probes rrn18-rrn5 and atp6 were most efficient in revealing its distinctiveness. Unique mitochondrial genomic organizations were found to be associated with long-term tissue culture.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary Chloroplast (ct) and mitochondrial (mt) DNAs were isolated from two subspecies of rice (Oryza sativa), japonica (Calrose 76) and indica (PI353705) and compared by restriction endonuclease fragment pattern analysis. Similarly, PI353705 (A5) mtDNA was also compared with the mtDNA of its long term tissue cultured line, BL2. Variation in the ctDNA of the 2 subspecies was detected with two (AvaI and BglI) of the 11 restriction endonucleases tested, whereas their mtDNAs showed considerable variation when restricted by PstI, BamHI, HindIII and XhoI endonucleases. Thus, the chloroplast DNA was more highly conserved than the mtDNA in the subspecies comparisons. Only minor variation was observed between the restriction endonuclease patterns of the mtDNAs of BL2 and A5. Southern blots of mtDNA were hybridized with heterologous probes from maize and spinach organelle genes. Differences were found in the hybridization patterns of the two subspecies for six of the eight (mitochondrial and chloroplast) probes tested. Two of the seven (mitochondrial) probes (coxII and 26S rRNA) detected tissue culture generated variation in mtDNA. The relative values of restriction endonuclease and hybridization patterns for studying phylogenetic and genetic relationships in rice are discussed.

    Notizen: Abstract Fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) that have never encountered a predatory pike (Esox lucius), are able to detect conspecific alarm pheromone in a pike’s diet if the pike has recently consumed minnows. It remains unclear how this minnow alarm pheromone is secreted by pike and if a pike is able to avoid being labelled as a potential predator by localizing these cues away from its foraging range. The first experiment determined that minnow alarm pheromone is present in pike feces when pike are fed minnows. Individual fathead minnows exhibited a fright response to a stimulus of pike feces if the pike had been fed minnows, but not if the pike had been fed swordtails, which lack alarm pheromone. Individual minnows also exhibited a fright reaction to alarm pheromone in the water (which contained no feces) housing pike which had been fed minnows, suggesting that alarm pheromone is also released in urine, mucous secretions and/or via respiration. The second experiment determined that test pike spent a significantly greater proportion of time in the “home area” of the test tanks (i.e. where they were fed) but the majority of feces were deposited in the opposite end of the test tank. By localizing their defecation away from the home or foraging area, pike may be able to counter the effects of being labelled as a predator by the alarm pheromone of the prey species.

    Notizen: Abstract Single fathead minnows,Pimephales promelas, were exposed to a range of concentrations of conspecific skin extract. Their responses were observed qualitatively and quantified by a computer linked to an activity meter. The response of fathead minnows to skin extract is complex, involving at least three separate types of behavior. The minnows responded over a 1000-fold range of extract concentrations with combinations of dashing, freezing, slowing, and exploring. The latency of the response increased at the lowest extract concentrations, suggesting summation of sensory cell responses. At low stimulus concentrations, a period of exploratory behavior sometimes preceded the more typical alarm responses. The active space generated by the alarm substance in 1 cm2 of minnow skin may exceed 58,000 liters.
