Ryan | | 视频video | | | 图书封面 |  | | 描述 | In this time of edited volumes when the list of individual contributors may reach double figures, it is appropriate to question the usefulness of a volume, with such a broad scope, by a single author. The answer is simple. For years he has believed that the rather sharp distinction between fundamental and applied aspects of this discipline, has ill-served the significance of each; and has diminished the incidence of fruitful synergies. Yet the need for these was never greater, and this case may be developed by a single author with experience of each aspect. The inclusion of a Chapter on Genetic Engineering may raise some doubts, but it is enabled by the chosen title “Chemoreception”, as distinct from Chemoperception: the latter implies detection of a chemical, followed by a behavioural response. But the former broader category subsumes Chemoperception and allows for the reception of a chemical toxin so potent as to prelude a behavioural or physiological response, other than death. Accordingly, chemical toxins are a legitimate inclusion. In which event, their delivery through a GM plant is as appropriate for study as their application in a spray. | | 出版日期 | Book 2002 | | 关键词 | development; ecology; genetic engineering; insect; physiology; plant; plant protection; receptor | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/0-306-47581-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-017-3930-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-0-306-47581-8 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2002 |
