Abstract:

Since ancient times, locusts have been serious pests wreaking havoc on settled agriculture throughout much of the world. Numerous locust practices have been developed to control infestations. This has led to most commentaries portraying locust infestations only in a negative light while focusing on finding best management practices for suppressing locust populations and lessening crop damage caused by swarms. Yet, locusts are also of great ecological significance in being not only an extraordinary natural phenomenon but also major components of ecosystem nutrient cycling, arising long before settled agriculture. Furthermore, for humans, locusts are a nutritious food source, historically and currently being consumed directly. Locust control today should more regularly include their harvesting. This is now more feasible, as environmentally friendly biopesticides can be used to replace harmful organic pesticides. We focus here on the ecological significance of locusts by using calculations based on a 1 km2 area of swarming and breeding Desert locusts, Schistocerca gregaria, and show that the huge biomass of locust individuals contributes greatly to ecosystem processes while also having great potential use in human nutrition, especially where there is an urgent need for improved dietary intake and nutrition.

Abstract:

We have studied the influence of variations in dietary protein and digestible carbohydrate content, of insect age and of time during the feeding cycle on the endocrine cells of the ampullar region of the midgut in the African migratory locust Locusta migratoria L. Morphometric analysis of FMRFamide-like immunoreactivity was used as an indirect measure of the amount of FMRFamide-related peptides (FaRPs) stored in the gut endocrine cells. There was a highly significant correlation between FaRP content and the nutritional quality of the food, measured relative to the concentrations and ratio of protein to digestible carbohydrate in a nutritionally optimal diet. The direction of the relationship between FaRP content and diet quality varied with age during the fifth stadium. On day 1, FaRP levels increased with the nutritional quality of the food, while on day 4 the opposite relationship was observed. Release of peptide was triggered by the onset of a meal during ad libitum feeding, with cell FaRP levels returning to premeal values within 15 min of the meal ending. The results also suggested that cell contents were released during food deprivation beyond the normal intermeal interval. Locusts switched for a single meal during ad libitum feeding on day 4 from a low- to a high-carbohydrate food did not respond by reducing endocrine cell FaRP content. Our results show a relationship between the diffuse gut endocrine system and feeding and nutrition in locusts. The ampullar endocrine cells are in three-way contact with the midgut luminal contents, with the primary urine from the Malpighian tubules and with the haemolymph. They are thus ideally positioned to play an integrative receptor-secretory function in the regulation of a variety of post-ingestive processes, such as enzyme secretion, absorption, gut motility or nutrient metabolism.

Abstract:

Plant nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) resorption is an important strategy to conserve N and P in the face of nutrient limitation. However, little is known about the variation of N and P resorption efficiency (NRE and PRE) and their correlation with leaves and soil C:N:P stoichiometry in black locust forests (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) of different ages. In this study, we measured C, N, and P concentrations in soil, green leaves, and senesced leaves from black locust forests of different ages (i.e, 10-, 20-, 30-, 36-, and 45-year-old), and calculated the NRE, PRE, and C:N:P stoichiometry ratios. The NRE and PRE tended to increase and then decrease with stand age, ranging from 46.8% to 57.4% and from 37.4% to 58.5%, with averages of 52.61 and 51.89, respectively. The PRE:NRE decreased with increased stand ages. The C:P and N:P of soil and green leaves increased with stand ages, indicating the increase of P limitation. In the senesced leaves, C:P and N:P were lower than in green leaves and first increased and then decreased with stand age. The PRE was significantly negatively correlated with the C:P and N:P of soil and green leaves. The NRE was significantly correlated with the C concentration of green leaves, P of the senesced leaves, and C:N. Results suggested that the NRE and PRE responded differently to soil and plant nutrients in black locust forests of different ages. In addition, the black locust plantations would alter the conservation and use strategy of nutrients in the ecosystem through a plant-mediated pathway. Future studies should elucidate the central nutrient utilization strategy of black locust in response to a nutrient-poor environment and determine how it is involved in regulating nutrient resorption.

Abstract:

Currently, black locust is the most important tree species in Hungary with significant economic value. Intensification of its cultivation and the improvement of the timber quality should include the use of highly productive clones and reasonable fertilization. Nutrition management should be based on reliable data from exact experiments. In our trial, nutrition intake of Turbo Obelisk OBE01 clone saplings was examined during a four-month period. Osmocote Pro (18:9:10 + 2Mg) was used as fertilizer at a dose of 2.5 and 5 kg m-3 mixed to a peat-based substrate. At the end of the growing period, saplings reached a height of 260-280 cm and a stem diameter of 16-18 mm. Nutrient intake order was found to be the following: Ca (3.3-4.2 g) > N (3.1-3.6 g) > K (2.1-2.9 g) > Mg (0.35-0.5 g) = P (0.3-0.5 g). Based on our results, a lower N:P and N:K rate fertilizer is recommended, especially if a non-peat based substrate and longer growing period is planned with a higher rate of nitrogen fixation. Considering nitrogen resource, a dose of 5 kg m-3 was proved to be less effective than a concentration of 2.5 kg m-3. However, the higher concentration of phosphorous, potassium and magnesium were well-utilized by the plants.

Abstract:

The effects of various sources of dietary fibre on the high glycaemic index of an Israeli ethnic food, melawach, were investigated in subjects with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Locust-bean (Ceratonia siliqua) gum significantly decreased the glucose response to, and glycaemic index of, melawach in these diabetic subjects (P < 0·05). It also tended to decrease their insulinaemic response and insulinaemic index, but differences were not significant. Dietary fibre from lupin (Lupinus albus) and insoluble maize-cob fibre did not affect glucose and insulin levels in NIDDM volunteers. Subjects with a BMI < 30 kg/m2 exhibited similar glucose, but not insulin, responses to fibre. Locust-bean gum had no significant effect on glycaemic response in NIDDM subjects with a BMI > 30 kg/m2, whereas insulinaemic response decreased. The results indicate that foods containing the same nutrients in almost the same amounts, but differing in added dietary fibre, lead to different physiological responses in diabetic subjects. Furthermore, insulin response should be considered when fibre is incorporated into the diabetic's diet.

Abstract:

Some aspects of the ability of locusts and grasshoppers (Acrididae) to compensate for nutritional shortfalls were studied, with a special emphasis on the factors which constrain this ability. Chapter 1 investigates the effects over the short-term (12 h) of the plant-produced allelochemical tannic acid on the ability of Locusta migratoria (L.) and Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal) to compensate for dilution of dietary proteins and carbohydrates by increasing consumption. Tannic acid had no effect on compensatory feeding by L. migratoria, and stimulated feeding by S. gregaria. Chapter 2 extends this study over the longer-term (fifth instar) for L. migratoria. Over this period, tannic acid restricted intake and reduced growth of those insects fed lowprotein diets, indicating an inhibitory effect on compensatory feeding for protein. In addition, the levels of dietary proteins influenced regulation for carbohydrate intake and, to a lesser extent, vice-versa. A detailed discussion is presented of the ways that some dietary components can influence the intake of others, and how failure to take this into account can lead to poor experimental design and interpretation. Chapter 3 investigates some mechanisms involved in dietary selection by the grasshopper Schistocerca americana (Drury). It was found that S. americana conditioned on distinctly flavoured protein-inadequate diets then tested on nutritionally similar diets with the familiar or a novel flavour, tend to eat more of the novel-flavoured diets. This suggests that conditioned neophilia, possibly in conjunction with aversion learning, may be a factor facilitating dietary selection in acridids. Chapter 4 investigates the patterns of feeding and dietary selection behaviour of the polyphagous grasshopper Taeniopoda eques (Burmeister) in its natural desert habitat. Despite the overwhelming thermoregulatory requirements and unpredictable variability inherent in ecological complexity, these insects nonetheless maintained a pattern of feeding comparable to that observed under controlled laboratory conditions. The patterns of dietary selection behaviour were concordant with some of the mechanisms observed to operate in the laboratory. Chapter 5 addresses an important inadequacy in the methodology currently used to investigate some aspects of nutritional compensation. A computer-generated data set is used to illustrate how the analysis of the currently popular ratio-based nutritional indices may be flawed, and how this may be overcome using as an alternative the analysis of covariance.

Abstract:

Integrating trees into pasture may be an effective management tool to improve water, nutrient, and light allocation and increase total system productivity in Appalachia. We tested this hypothesis in a silvopasture near Blacksburg, VA. In 1995, black walnut and honey locust trees were planted within plots (r=3) of predominantly tall fescue pasture. Across a 12% slope, trees were planted to create treatments of low, medium, and high tree densities at shoulder, mid, and toe slope positions within plots of honey locust and black walnut. Sampling sites (n=54) under tree density and slope position combinations were harvested May to October at 35-d intervals in 2002 and 2003 for determination of yield and nutritive value characteristics. Soil surface temperature, forage canopy temperature, soil moisture, and photosynthetically active radiation were measured to determine forage responses to field treatments as functions of resource allocation. Tree density had the greatest effect on forage production and nutritive value. Across both years, yields were 16% greater (P=0.0006) at medium density (6130 kg/ha) compared to forage mass at low (5280 kg/ha)) and high density (4970 kg/ha, SE=130). Increasing tree density did not affect (P>0.2) ADF, CP, P, K, and Mg levels, but reduced (P<0.001) NDF and TNC, and increased (P<0.0001) ADL and Ca. Elevated soil surface and forage canopy temperatures limited forage production and nutritive value at low density, while low light levels were the limiting factor at high density. Moderating forage microclimate with appropriately spaced trees is an effective way to improve forage production in temperate pastures.

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes how an individual's nutritional state influences how a group behaves. Mormon crickets, ants, and slime molds illustrate how local nutritional interactions can fashion cohesive, group-level behavioral patterns. In Mormon crickets and locusts, order emerges from a base nutritional response: the attempt to eat your neighbor. While it is true that one consequence of being driven on a cannibalistic forced march is an increased probability of finding better conditions elsewhere, it seems vanishingly unlikely that this has been selected as an emergent property at the level of the migratory band. In contrast, the emergent outcomes arising from nutritional interactions within ant nests and slime mold plasmodia clearly do enhance the evolutionary fitness of the collective entities and their component parts. It is therefore valid to use the term “superorganism” for such systems.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: Fulfilment of nutrition in the first 1000 days of life greatly affects the development of a child’s brain and body. If the nutritional intake is not fulfilled, the impact on children’s development will be permanent, one of which is stunting. This study aimed to compare the quality of antenatal care (ANC) by midwives in the stunting locus and not the stunting locus village. Subjects and Method: This was a comparative analytic with cross-sectional study conducted in stunting locus and not stunting locus village in Malang Regency from August-December 2019. A total of 84 midwives were enrolled in this study by purposive sampling. The data were collected by questionnaire. Data were analyzed using a multiple linear regression. Results: Quality of ANC in stunting locus and not stunting locus village were not showing good results. The most dominant influence on the quality of ANC midwives in the stunting locus was the length of work of the midwives. Meanwhile, the most dominant influence on the quality of ANC midwives in non-stunting locus was the latest education. Conclusion: Quality of ANC in stunting locus and not stunting locus village are not yet showing good results.
