Isolated ectoderm of early gastrula stages ofTriturus alpestris was treated with vegetalizing factor for 24 h employing the sandwich method (induced ectoderm). Controls were incubated for the same period with γ-globulin which has no inducing activity. Explants of both series were labelled with cationized ferritin, which binds to negatively charged groups at physiological pH. In non-induced ectoderm, ferritin particles can be found as a thin layer all over the plasma membranes. In induced ectoderm the total amount of ferritin bound to the plasma membrane is much lower than in non-induced ectoderm. Ferritin is located in restricted areas only. In contrast to the controls, other membrane areas are free of ferritin particles. The correlation between these results and the change of cell affinity after induction with vegetalizing factor is discussed.

Brazilian stingless bee species produce honey with distinct physicochemical and bioactive properties shaped by environmental factors. This study investigated the effects of the rainy and dry seasons on the physicochemical characteristics, chemical fingerprinting, mineral content, and antioxidant capacity of honey from and . The honey samples were analyzed for their phytochemical properties (official methods), total phenolics (Folin-Ciocalteu method), flavonoid content (aluminum complex formation method), antioxidant capacity (FRAP and ABTS assays), and antioxidant activity (erythrocyte model).

Thrips tabaci is the main thrips species affecting onion and related species. It is a cryptic species complex comprising three phylogenetic groups characterized by different reproductive modes (thelytoky or arrhenotoky) and host plant specialization. Thrips tabaci populations vary widely in genetic diversity, raising questions about the factor(s) that drive this diversity.

The success of pollen-pistil interaction in Mauritia flexuosa (buriti), a palm adapted to the humid ecosystems, 'veredas', within the Cerrado, is influenced by intrinsic and environmental factors. Its supra-annual flowering, dioecy, and adverse climate conditions pose challenges for fertilization, therefore information on floral biology is essential. This study aimed to ascertain stigma receptivity, and elucidate structural, cytochemical, and ultrastructural aspects of the pollen-pistil relationship.
