Table 1. CNglc hydrolysis in Lotus leaves is minimal during larval feeding.
HCN (nmol) | intact | crushed | feeding by Z. filipendulae |
cyd2 | 0.02±0.04 | 1.17±0.73 | 1.50±1.03 |
MG-20 | 0.09±0.12 | 119.4±47.10 | 1.62±0.97 (1.29±1.59*) |
HCN emission as measurement of CNglc hydrolysis from L. japonicus cyd2 and MG-20 leaves with no damage (intact), with mechanical damage (crushed) or with damage by feeding Z. filipendulae larvae. Values are given as mean with ± SD, N = 11. (*After subtraction of HCN emission from larvae [ = 0.33 nmol ±1.26 SD], which is the mean value of HCN emission ± SD from feeding on cyd2 minus the mean value of HCN emission ± SD from crushed cyd2).
