Mating occurs on the larval host plant in allRhagoletis species (Diptera:
Tephritidae). We show how this attribute, when coupled with certain differences
in other biological traits, strongly influences the mode of speciation. In
species of thesuavis species group, host shifts have never occurred during
speciation, and larvae feed in the husks of any walnut species(Juglans spp.),
which are highly t... hiện toàn bộ
The plant-to-plant movement of insects in one of the factors determining the
distribution of individuals in insect populations. In this report the movement
of barley aphids was analyzed by a statistical model. The model is represented
as the convolution of three probability functions: The probability thatl
individuals are located on a plant at timet 1 is represented by the following
equation $$R\l... hiện toàn bộ
The spatial distribution of the eggs, larvae, pupae and adults of the wheat-bulb
fly was investigated by fitting 42 sets of data comprising 1334 samples to the
Poisson and negative binomial distributions, and by using the power law (S 2 =am
b ). In general, the tests indicated that all stages were aggregated and fitted
the negative binomial model.... hiện toàn bộ
Enclosed populations of pine mice were studied over a 28-month period and
compared with populations in surrounding natural areas. The enclosed populations
reached densities far greater than any observed in surrounding natural areas. It
is suggested that the restriction placed on dispersal by the enclosure walls and
the addition of food in the form of trap bait could have allowed the enclosed
popul... hiện toàn bộ
In geological history, rapid speciation, called adaptive radiation, has occurred
repeatedly. The origins of such newly developing taxa often evolved from the
symbiosis of different species. Mutualistic symbioses are generally considered
to evolve from parasitic relationships. As well as the previous model of host
population with discrete generations, a differential equation model of host
populatio... hiện toàn bộ
The interpretation of the probabilities presented in this paper is that none of
the competing biological risks, acting in the presence of other risks, offers
much, if any, regulatory influence upon a mountain pine beetle population.
Consequently, if no single risk, or combination of these risks, offers much
help, then the contention that mountain pine beetle populations are
food-regulated is once ... hiện toàn bộ
I compared the differences in the movement intensity of three species of
sympatricAthalia sawflies,A. japonica, A. rosae andA. infumata feeding on
cruciferous plants. Mark-release-recapture census was conducted to estimate
movement distance, sex ratio and age composition of adult sawflies. In addition,
the sex ratio of newlyemerged adults was examined by rearing field-collected
larvae until adult ... hiện toàn bộ
The effects of breeding territoriality on the stability of grey red-backed vole
(Clethrionomys rufocanus bedfordiae) populations were investigated on a control
grid and a grid on which the voles were fed, in an outdoor enclosure in
Hokkaido, Japan. Vole populations were monitored by live trapping from 1984 to
1986: (1) Population density was 2–7 times greater on the experimental grid to
which food... hiện toàn bộ

Dynamics of the buried seeds and plant population of two dominant weeds,
viz.,Emilia sonchifolia (Linn.) DC. andRichardsonia pilosa HBK were studied in
the crop fields of Meghalaya, north-east India during radish and maize cropping
and intervening fallow periods. The total buried seed population ofR. pilosa was
always larger than that ofE. sonchifolia, but the germinable fraction was
invariably gr... hiện toàn bộ
