The response of Morimus funereus larvae to total starvation and refeeding with qualitatively different nutritive substrates (artificial diets supplemented with yeast as a source of B complex vitamins or with a digestibility reducer-tannic acid) was examined in this paper. Refeeding resulted in a compensatory increase of larval growth. Feeding and refeeding with qualitatively different nutritive substrates affected both quality and quantity of midgut and brain proteins. The observed differences suggest the possible switching of enzyme isoforms in M. funereus midgut and changes in synthesis/secretion of neurohormones, depending on food presence and its nutritional value.
本文研究了暗黑鳃金龟幼虫对完全饥饿以及用性质不同的营养底物(添加酵母作为B族复合维生素来源的人工饲料或添加消化率降低剂——单宁酸的人工饲料)重新投喂的反应。重新投喂导致幼虫生长出现补偿性增加。用性质不同的营养底物进行投喂和重新投喂会影响中肠和脑蛋白的质量和数量。观察到的差异表明,暗黑鳃金龟中肠中可能存在酶同工型的转换以及神经激素合成/分泌的变化,这取决于食物的存在及其营养价值。
