thorax

Gland extract treatments: In treatments with body parts and dummies odorized with gland extracts, both nestmate thoraces and dummies odorized with alien PPG extracts received more agonistic interactions than those odorized with nestmate PPG extracts (p = 0.001, Fig.

The anthropometrical parameters: waist, body weight, bust, thoraces perimeter at ease, thoracic perimeter in deep inhalation.

The heads and thoraces of all anopheline females were tested by ELISA for the detection of Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein (CSP) using Wirtz et al.

2007); individuals with longer legs did not have larger heads and thoraces. Rather, growth appeared to be constrained in these two body parts.

All pollen was transferred using the plush dorsal thoraces of dead honeybees as disposable fine brushes, which we first rubbed against the anthers of the donor flower(s) and then immediately pressed against the stigma of a recipient flower.

Presence/absence of sporozoites in vectors was determined by circumsporozoite enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CS-ELISA) on homogenates of heads and thoraces of female An.

pyralis, and from heads and thoraces prepared from males (Nor Aliza et al.
