By: R. Kopanic*, G. Holbrook, V. Sevala* & C. Schal n

author keywords: Blattella germanica; cockroach; coprophagy; nutrient flow; survival analysis
TL;DR: A possible adaptive benefit of coprophagy was investigated in nymphs of the German cockroach Blattella germanica (L.) and it was found thatCoprophagy is an important regulator of immunity in cockroaches. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 journal article

Tissue distribution and lipophorin transport of hydrocarbons and sex pheromones in the house fly, Musca domestica

Journal of Insect Science (Tucson, AZ), 1(12), 1.

By: C. Schal n , V. Sevala n, M. L. Capurro, T. Snyder n, G. Blomquist* & A. Bagneres*

TL;DR: The results support a predicted model that lipophorin is involved in the transport of sex pheromone in M. domestica and suggest that lipphorin may play an important role in an active mechanism that selectively deposits certain subsets of hydrocarbons at specific tissues.

2000 journal article

Cuticular hydrocarbons of the dampwood termite, Zootermopsis nevadensis: Caste differences and role of lipophorin in transport of hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon metabolites

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY, 26(3), 765–789.

By: V. Sevala n, A. Bagneres*, M. Kuenzli*, G. Blomquist* & C. Schal n 

author keywords: lipophorin; hydrocarbon; termite; Isoptera; castes; cuticle; metabolism
TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the hypothesis that lipophorin transports HC and some HC metabolites through the hemolymph from the sites of synthesis to the integument and from theIntegument to metabolic and excretory tissues. (via Semantic Scholar)

1999 journal article

Lipophorin of female Blattella germanica (L.): characterization and relation to hemolymph titers of juvenile hormone and hydrocarbons

JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 45(5), 431–441.

By: V. Sevala n, S. Shu *, S. Ramaswamy* & C. Schal n 

author keywords: Blattella germanica; lipophorin; juvenile hormone; hydrocarbon; hemolymph volume; ELISA
TL;DR: High density lipophorin from the hemolymph of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.) (Family Blattellidae), has an apparent molecular weight of 670kDa, with an isoelectric point of 7.0 and a density of 1.109g/ml, and may covary with the titers of lipid ligands that occur at high concentrations and require extensive shuttling through the Hemolymph.

1999 journal article

Site of synthesis, tissue distribution, and lipophorin transport of hydrocarbons in Blattella germanica (L.) nymphs

JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 45(4), 305–315.

By: H. Young n, J. Bachmann n, V. Sevala n & C. Schal n 

author keywords: Blattella germanica; hydrocarbons; hemolymph; cuticle; lipophorin; epidermis
TL;DR: It is concluded that in the last stadium HC is synthesized by abdominal oenocytes, loaded onto hemolymph lipophorin, and transported to fat body and both nymphal and imaginal cuticle, suggesting that the fat body serves as a storage site for HC during cuticle formation.

By: C. Schal n , V. Sevala n & R. Cardé*

TL;DR: This chapter discusses polarization imagery, a new imaging technique in atmospheric science, used for remote sensing of earth resources and its relevance for water detection by aquatic insects. (via Semantic Scholar)

1997 journal article

Lipophorin: A hemolymph juvenile hormone binding protein in the German cockroach, Blattella germanica

INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 27(7), 663–670.

By: V. Sevala n, J. Bachmann n & C. Schal n 

author keywords: Blattella germanica; lipophorin; juvenile hormone; binding protein; hemolymph; pyriproxyfen; fenoxycarb; pheromone; photoactivation
TL;DR: Competitive displacement studies with racemic JH III, JH I, cuticular hydrocarbon, contact sex pheromone, and the JH analogs pyriproxyfen, fenoxycarb, and hydroprene showed that only JHIII readily displaced [ 3 H](10 R )JH III from the binding site. (via Semantic Scholar)

Reproductive biology of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica: Juvenile hormone as a pleiotropic master regulator

ARCHIVES OF INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY, 35(4), 405–426.

By: C. Schal n , G. Holbrook n, J. Bachmann n & V. Sevala n

author keywords: cockroach; corpora allata; juvenile hormone; JH analog; food intake; ovary; Blattella germanica
TL;DR: Observations suggest that JH might regulate sexual receptivity in females indirectly through inhibition of signals associated with copulation even when titers of JH are permissive for receptivity. (via Semantic Scholar)
