Wing pigmentation, immune ability, fat reserves and territorial status in males of the rubyspot damselfly, Hetaerina americana
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of immune-based assumptions were tested in the territorial damselfly Hetaerina americana, whose males bear wing pigmentation patterns, which are maintained via male-male competition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insect immune priming: ecology and experimental evidences
Jorge Contreras-Garduño,Humberto Lanz-Mendoza,Bernardo Franco,Adriana Palma Nava,Mario Pedraza-Reyes,Jorge Canales-Lazcano +5 more
TL;DR: Immune priming refers to improved protection of the host after a second encounter with the same parasite or pathogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial and temporal population differences in male density and condition in the American rubyspot, Hetaerina americana (Insecta: Calopterygidae)
Jorge Contreras-Garduño,Jorge Canales-Lazcano,Jesús Guillermo Jiménez-Cortés,Nahum Juárez-Valdez,Humberto Lanz-Mendoza,Alex Córdoba-Aguilar +5 more
TL;DR: In a population where animals have more dietary resources, males reach a better condition despite the competition being more intense, suggests preliminary research using the territorial American rubyspot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiota from Rhabditis regina may alter nematode entomopathogenicity
Jesús Guillermo Jiménez-Cortés,Jesús Guillermo Jiménez-Cortés,Jorge Canales-Lazcano,Nancy Lara-Reyes,Mónica Rosenblueth,Esperanza Martínez-Romero,Jorge Contreras-Garduño +6 more
TL;DR: Results showed that some bacteria contributing to entomopathogenicity may be lost in the laboratory representing a disadvantage when nematodes are cultivated to be used for biological control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual dimorphism in immune response: testing the hypothesis in an insect species with two male morphs.
Gloria Ruiz-Guzmán,Jorge Canales-Lazcano,Jesús Guillermo Jiménez-Cortés,Jorge Contreras-Garduño +3 more
TL;DR: The results partially support the sexual selection hypothesis in Paraphlebia zoe and show that females and Hyaline‐W had higher values of NO than Black‐W, corresponding to differences in size, whereas the opposite was found in relation to PO production.
