Animals select appropriate diets to meet their nutritional requirements. Here, we demonstrate the availability for analysis of feeding preference using an orthopteran, the two-spotted cricket Gryllus bimaculatus. A time-course study of these insects, involving continuous recording and tracing behavior for 9 h, allowed us to monitor discrimination of diet that contained various nutrients.
动物会选择合适的食物来满足其营养需求。在此,我们展示了利用直翅目昆虫双斑蟋(Gryllus bimaculatus)来分析进食偏好的可行性。对这些昆虫进行的一项时间进程研究,包括连续9小时记录和追踪其行为,使我们能够监测对含有各种营养成分食物的辨别情况。
