Chemical Defense in Harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones): Do Benzoquinone Secretions Deter Invertebrate and Vertebrate Predators?
TL;DR: The results indicate that secretions containing the 1,4-benzoquinones released by G. longipes can be an effective defense against predation, and that the effectiveness of the secretion is dependent on the predator type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lines of defense in the harvestman Hoplobunus mexicanus (Arachnida: Opiliones): Aposematism, stridulation, thanatosis, and irritant chemicals
Armando M. Pomini,Glauco Machado,Ricardo Pinto-da-Rocha,Rogelio Macías-Ordóñez,Anita J. Marsaioli +4 more
TL;DR: The lines of defense in the harvestman Hoplobunus mexicanus are reported including the complete chemical characterization of defensive secretion, a morphological description of the ozopore, and a spectrogram of stridulating sounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methylobacterium-plant interaction genes regulated by plant exudate and quorum sensing molecules
Manuella Nóbrega Dourado,Andréa Cristina Bogas,Armando M. Pomini,Fernando Dini Andreote,Maria Carolina Quecine,Anita J. Marsaioli,Welington Luiz Araújo +6 more
TL;DR: Under in vitro conditions, the results showed the differential expression of some important genes related to metabolism, stress and pathogenesis, thereby AHL molecules up-regulate all tested genes, except phoU, while plant exudates induce only mxaF gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Chain Acyl-Homoserine Lactones from Methylobacterium mesophilicum: Synthesis and Absolute Configuration
Armando M. Pomini,Pedro Luis Rocha da Cruz,C. S. Gai,Welington Luiz Araújo,Anita J. Marsaioli +4 more
TL;DR: Antimicrobial assays with synthetic acyl-HSLs against Gram-positive bacterial endophytes co-isolated with M. mesophilicum from CVC-infected trees revealed low or no antibacterial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical and behavioral defenses of the neotropical harvestman Camarana flavipalpi (Arachnida: Opiliones)
Glauco Machado,Armando M. Pomini +1 more
TL;DR: The defensive secretion of the harvestman Camarana flavipalpi (Gonyleptidae) was chemically characterized, revealing the presence of a single, highly volatile component (2-methyl-5-ethyl-phenol).
