    Different fates of metabolites and small variation in chemical composition characterise frass chemistry in a specialist caterpillar

    Abstract Specialist and generalist insect herbivores evolved different strategies to process host‐plant metabolites. We explored frass composition in Laothoe populi (L.) caterpillars (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae), a specialist moth species that is closely associated with plants of the Salicaceae (Mirb.) family. We fed the caterpillars with leaves from three willow species ( Salix caprea L., S. purpurea L. and S. viminalis L.), one willow hybrid ( S. x rubens Schrank) and one poplar species ( Populus tremula L.). Using untargeted metabolomics, we compared the chemical composition and variation among leaf and frass samples. We quantified the chemical variation using either a simple index based on the presence and concentration of metabolites (i.e., Bray‐Curtis) or an index that additionally accounts for chemical structural‐compositional similarity (CSCS) among metabolites. Due to the high degree of dietary specialisation, we expected low host‐specific variation in frass composition among the caterpillars. Based on literature, we further hypothesised that ingested salicinoids will be largely modified in the caterpillar gut while flavonoids will be often passively excreted. Finally, we compared chemical variation among the samples when quantified with Bray‐Curtis or CSCS metrics. As expected, we found relatively low host‐specific variation in the chemical composition of caterpillar frass. Our results further suggest that flavonoids were largely passively excreted by the caterpillars, while salicinoids were metabolised in the gut. Finally, we found that chemical composition measures based on Bray‐Curtis overestimated the differences in chemical composition between frass and leaves, suggesting that for these type of samples CSCS measures are better suited to reflect metabolic changes more realistically.Grantová Agentura České Republiky https://doi.org/10.13039/50110000182

    Harald Klingelholler : Sculptures

    No full text
    Refering to notions of language and nature, and to Heidegger's conception of "dwelling", Moos analyses Klingelholler's sculptures made of materials contiguous with those of modern building. The author examines these forms' pervasive spatiality and considers the artist's peculiar use of paper. Biographical notes. 11 bibl. ref

    Electronic Structure Description of the cis-MoOS Unit in Models for Molybdenum Hydroxylases

    No full text
    Copyright © 2008 American Chemical SocietyThe molybdenum hydroxylases catalyze the oxidation of numerous aromatic heterocycles and simple organics and, unlike other hydroxylases, utilize water as the source of oxygen incorporated into the product. The electronic structures of the cis-MoOS units in CoCp2[TpiPrMoVOS(OPh)] and TpiPrMoVIOS(OPh) (TpiPr = hydrotris(3-isopropylpyrazol-1-yl)borate), new models for molybdenum hydroxylases, have been studied in detail using S K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy, vibrational spectroscopy, and detailed bonding calculations. The results show a highly delocalized Mo=S pi* LUMO redox orbital that is formally Mo(dxy) with approximately 35% sulfido ligand character. Vibrational spectroscopy has been used to quantitate Mo-Ssulfido bond order changes in the cis-MoOS units as a function of redox state. Results support a redox active molecular orbital that has a profound influence on MoOS bonding through changes to the relative electro/nucleophilicity of the terminal sulfido ligand accompanying oxidation state changes. The bonding description for these model cis-MoOS systems supports enzyme mechanisms that are under orbital control and dominantly influenced by the unique electronic structure of the cis-MoOS site. The electronic structure of the oxidized enzyme site is postulated to play a role in polarizing a substrate carbon center for nucleophilic attack by metal activated water and acting as an electron sink in the two-electron oxidation of substrates.Christian J.

    MOOS as Virtual Communities

    No full text
    Many researchers have observed that the Internet has changed the concept of virtual communities (Barnes, 2001, 2003; Jones, 1995, 1998; Rheingold, 1993). A unique example of virtual communities is a MOO—a specialized interactive online community that is usually based on a work of fiction such as book series, theater or television (Bartle, 1990). MOOs share many of the features of multi-user dimensions (MUDs) in that both allow participants to create their own virtual worlds, but some researchers consider MOOs to be “more sophisticated” (Barnes, 2001, p. 94). In a MOO community, the participants or “players” create their own virtual communities—fantasy communities complete with world structures, interpersonal norms and social constructs. Individual participants create characters complete with environment, history and personality constructs. The characters interact and influence each other and their environments, just as do the members of real-world communities. The MOO discussed in this case study is based on acclaimed fantasy author Anne McCaffery’s book series set on the fictional world of “Pern.” The players on DragonWings1 MOO create and develop characters over long periods, often many years, leading to the establishment and creation of a strong MOO. In this article we provide a case study of the DragonWings MOO as a unique virtual community. Because the concept of virtual communities is evolving with the Internet, and no definitive understanding of virtual community or virtual culture yet exists, we have chosen to structure our analysis of DragonWings MOO around the classical anthropological definition of culture and community. A seminal definition of culture, first articulated by Tylor (1871), provides the springboard for a number of anthropological definitions widely used today. Building on Tylor, White (1959), a prominent cultural scholar, defined culture as “within human organisms, i.e., concepts, beliefs, emotions, attitudes; within processes of social interaction among human beings; and within natural objects” (p. 237). He also identified symbols as a primary defining characteristic of culture. White’s simple yet comprehensive definition yields clear criteria that lend themselves to our analysis of MOOs. At the broadest level, an application of the criteria provides support for the acceptance of the Internet as a distinct and unique culture. At a more particular level, they provide a convenient tool for the analysis of a MOO as a virtual community. In the remainder of this article, we will utilize the definition outlined above to demonstrate the features that make DragonWings MOO a unique example of a virtual community. </jats:p

    Clima social escolar y desempeño docente en una institución educativa de San Martin de Porres 2014

    La presente investigación tuvo como propósito determinar la relación entre el clima social escolar y el desempeño docente en una institución educativa del distrito de San Martin de Porres. La investigación fue de tipo sustantiva, con un diseño descriptivo correlacional. La muestra fue de 150 estudiantes del cuarto año de secundaria de la institución educativa de San Martin de Porres. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron la escala de clima social escolar (CES) de Moos, Moos y Trickett, adaptado por Ballesteros y Sierra (1984) y el cuestionario de desempeño docente. Se encontró que existe relación entre el clima social escolar y el desempeño docente, con un índice de correlación de Rho de Spearman de 0,35 siendo una relación baja
