Butterfly fitness under changing food qualities
No full textThe present thesis investigates how different food qualities over the whole life cycle and
across generations affect butterfly development and reproduction, and addresses the following
main questions: (1) What effects have varying nitrogen concentration and different levels of
host plant defence during larval phase on larval and adult performance in butterflies? (2) Can
adult feeding in male and female butterflies compensate for deficiencies acquired during the
larval stage, or even increase butterfly fitness and reproductive success? (3) Does parental
food quality affect the next generation by parental effects (increased provisioning to
offspring, maternal oviposition choice or transgenerational acclimatization)?
With six distinctive experiments, I show that butterfly reproduction and fitness significantly
correlate with food quality and quantity. Thus, there are diverse strategies over the whole
butterfly life cycle to deal with suboptimal food sources in order to maximize reproduction
and fitness. First, during the larval stage, larval feeding duration can be prolonged and relative
consumption rates and/or efficiency of larval nitrogen utilization could be increased to
compensate for low-quality larval host plants. Second, adult nectar diet can compensate for
deficiencies acquired during larval stage and generally enhance reproduction. Furthermore,
female butterflies can use male-derived nuptial gifts for egg production. Third, parents can
increase provisioning to offspring and acclimatize and oviposit progeny to anticipated host
plants by transgenerational acclimatization to increase offspring performance and fitness.
These diverse strategies during larval and adult stage and even trans-generationally to
maximize reproduction and fitness show that butterflies are well adapted to quickly changing
host plant supplies. Furthermore, it shows that the holometabolous life cycle, using different
food sources during larval and adult stage, is a favorable surviving strategy

Nowe spojrzenie na planowanie architektury mieszkaniowej w afryce subsaharyjskiej
No full textThe author shares his reflections on state of art in housing and urban planning, deficiencies, expectations and possibilities in the Sahel region of Africa. He notices, that the housing problem in Africa is one of the challenges, which should be solved in order to recover life dignity of African people and secure their rights to traditional family life in acceptable conditions. The paper describes the studies on the typical dispersed urban structures and the need to foster this type of settlement structure and proposals of introduction of new on light steel frame housing system in the area of Sahel, combining the traditional way of building houses with modern technology. The particularly analysed case, is the housing problem in the Republic of Chad. The author presents the basic discussion on this topic and his architectural proposals. Unfortunately, the gap between the needs and the financial feasibility of housing construction in this area, makes this project already at the starting point extremely difficult to be realized without external subventions.Problem mieszkaniowy w Afryce jest jednym z wyzwań, które należy rozwiązać, aby Afrykanie mogli odzyskać godność życiową i zabezpieczyć swoje prawa do tradycyjnego życia rodzinnego w akceptowalnych warunkach. W artykule opisano badania nad typowymi rozproszonymi strukturami miejskimi i potrzebą wspierania tego typu struktur osadniczych oraz propozycji wprowadzenia nowego systemu konstrukcji domów, opartym na lekkim szkielecie stalowym, łączącym tradycyjny sposób budowania domów z nowoczesną technologią. Przypadkiem szczególnie analizowanym jest problem mieszkaniowy w Republice Czadu. Autor przedstawia podstawową dyskusję na ten temat i swoje propozycje architektoniczne. Niestety luka między potrzebami mieszkaniowymi w Czadzie a finansową wykonalnością budownictwa mieszkaniowego w tym obszarze sprawia, że projekt ten, już w punkcie wyjścia, jest niezwykle trudny do realizacji bez uzyskania zewnętrznych dotacji
