  • And Honeydew Sugars with Respect to Their Utilization by the Hymenopteran Parasitoid Cotesia Glomerata F.L
    Journal of Insect Physiology 47 (2001) 1077–1084 www.elsevier.com/locate/jinsphys A comparison of nectar- and honeydew sugars with respect to their utilization by the hymenopteran parasitoid Cotesia glomerata F.L. Wa¨ckers * Institute of Plant Sciences, Applied Entomology, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), 8092 Zurich, Switzerland Received 10 October 2000; received in revised form 12 February 2001; accepted 19 February 2001 Abstract Fourteen naturally occurring sugars were individually tested with respect to their effect on Cotesia glomerata longevity. Parasitoids kept with solutions of either sucrose, glucose and fructose lived for Ͼ30 days. This constitutes a factor 15 increase in life span in comparison to control individuals kept with water only. Stachyose, mannose, melezitose, melibiose, maltose and erlose increased parasitoid longevity by a factor of 11.2–6.9. Solutions of galactose and trehalose had a marginal, but still significant effect. Lactose and raffinose did not raise parasitoid longevity, while rhamnose actually reduced parasitoid survival. In an additional experiment, the relationship between quantity of sugar consumption and longevity was established for all 14 sugars. To study the effect of an unsuitable sugar in sugar mixtures, a range of glucose:rhamnose mixtures was tested. Even at 20% of the sugar mixture rhamnose suppressed the nutritional benefit of the 80% glucose. The nutritional suitability of the sugars shows a positive correlation with the previously reported gustatory response towards the individual sugars. Patterns of sugar utilization are discussed with respect to hydrolytic enzymes and carbohydrate biochemical characteristics. Our findings for C. glomerata are compared to patterns of sugar utilization reported for other species.

Hansen is pleased to submit a notice that we have concluded, through scientific procedures that Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) DSM 33452 is generally recognized as safe for use in malolactic fermentation of wine and musts and is not subject to the pre-market approval requirements. The recommendation is to inoculate the pure starter culture of L. plantarum DSM 33452 into wine or must at an inoculation level of 1.0E+07 CFU/g at the time of crushing grapes or as early as possible in the fermentation tanks. L. plantarum DSM 33452 is sensitive to alcohol concentration, so the concentration of the organism will decrease as the concentration of alcohol in the wine or must increases. Though L. plantarum DSM 33452 is safe to consume, it would be present at negligible levels, if at all, in the finished product. It should also be noted that due to recent taxonomic changes to the genus Lactobaci/lus, Lactobacillus plantarum will be known as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum moving forward (Zheng, et al., 2020).

  • An Investigation of Sugar Feeding by Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae)
    An Investigation of Sugar Feeding by Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) by Steve G. Burgin, B. Sc. A Thesis submitted to the Department of Biology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Biology Brock University St Catharines, Ontario © Steve G. Burgin, 1995 2 Abstract Although much research has been conducted on blood-meal acquisition in adult female black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae), the same cannot be said for sugar­ meals. Both sexes feed on sugar which provides energy for flight and it has been commonly held that nectar is the major carbohydrate source. This thesis addresses the question of whether a non-floral carbohydrate source, specifically homopteran honeydew, is ingested by male and female black flies. Black flies reared in the laboratory have been observed to readily ingest freshly excreted and older (dry) honeydew when presented with honeydew coated tamarack branches. Field work was conducted in Algonquin Park, Ontario in the spring and summer of 1993. Three separate studies were designed to test whether homopteran honeydew is an important carbohydrate source for black flies and whether flies from different habitats utilize different sugar sources. The sugars melezitose and / or stachyose are known to occur in a variety of homopteran honeydews and therefore were used as indicators of honeydew feeding by black flies. In the first study, black flies were collected with insect nets from a stand of Larix larcina heavily infested with honeydew - producing homopterans (Adelges lariciatus). Six black fly species were captured: Simulium venustum, S. rostratum, S. vittatum, Stegopterna mutata, S. aureum and S. quebecense. Samples of honeydew and individual black flies were tested using thin layer chromatography (T.

ABSTRACT Nowadays, health awareness has risen to a great extent and hence non-dairy probiotic products are in high demand by consumers due to the major set-backs, allergy, and lactose intolerance, of the dairy based probiotic counterparts being commercialized. The functional attributes of such non-dairy probiotic products can be enhanced many fold by coalescing it with some natural prebiotic oligosaccharides. Prebiotics are substances which cannot be digested by pathogenic microorganisms and thereby selectively enhance the development of probiotics. Probiotics are live microorganisms which confer health-benefits in humans. Keeping this in view, the present review focuses on honey being an exceptional source of such prebiotic oligosaccharides (fructo-oligosaccharide, galacto-oligosaccharide) perfect for utilization to produce non-dairy synbiotic formulations. Honey is a natural food consumed by humans since many centuries by almost all civilizations due to its rich nutritional and therapeutic values. It remains stable at room temperature for long time. The complex nature of honey does not favor the development of majority of microorganisms. However, honey has been reported to stimulate the growth and/or activity of probiotic microorganisms due to its prebiotic content.
