【天竺鼠鼠這麼可愛!怎麼可以吃?】
午安~今天來點不同的,一起查查 #維基百科
你也迷上 PUI PUI Guinea Pigs Cars
《#天竺鼠車車》了嗎?
在好奇為何是「天竺鼠+車」的組合前
我們應該先質疑「天竺+鼠」的命名
維基百科的解釋說:
「豚鼠,又名天竺鼠、葵鼠、荷蘭豬」
😮等等!#荷蘭豬?
這麼說來英文也叫 Pig
且並非來自天竺(印度)Tianzhu
而是西非的「幾內亞豬」Guinea Pig
接著來看英文維基百科的說明:
Despite their common name, guinea pigs are not native to Guinea, nor are they closely biologically related to pigs, and the origin of the name is still unclear. They originated in the Andes of South America.
「儘管普遍稱為 #幾內亞豬
卻不是來自幾內亞
在生物學上也跟豬不相近
名稱來源依然不明
這種動物源自南美洲的安第斯山脈」
😡什麼?英文名稱也不可靠!
古人到底在開什麼玩笑
老鼠的名稱能這樣亂取嗎?
害牠們失去國家認同感怎麼辦~
Studies based on biochemistry and hybridization suggest they are domesticated descendants of a closely related species of cavy, and do not exist naturally in the wild. They were originally domesticated as livestock, for a source of meat, and continue to be consumed as food.
「生物化學和交配育種的研究指出
牠們是豚鼠的近緣種經過馴化的後代
因此自然界中不存在野生的天竺鼠
牠們原本被當成提供肉類來源的家畜
也依然被當成食物所食用」
😭查資料查到洋蔥!!!
怎麼可以吃天竺鼠啦嗚嗚~~~
The animals were used so frequently as model organisms in the 19th and 20th centuries that the epithet guinea pig came into use to describe a human test subject. Since that time, they have been largely replaced by other rodents, such as mice and rats.
「這種動物於19和20世紀
被廣泛當成 #模式生物
而變成人體試驗對象的綽號
後來普遍被其他鼠類取代。」
🐭也就是中文俗稱的「白老鼠」
在英文要譯成 guinea pig
例如:他自願當這場實驗的白老鼠
He volunteered to act as a guinea pig in the experiment.
送你【PUI PUI單字包!】
-cavy: 豚鼠
-domesticated: 馴化的

認真請問:這樣菇菇還算素食嗎?
#杏鮑菇大戰線蟲 🍄🐛
素食菇菇套餐中常見的杏鮑菇與秀珍菇竟然吃葷?
本院分子生物研究所薛雁冰助研究員帶領研究團隊發現「#杏鮑菇麻痺殺死線蟲」的秘密!研究成果近期也登上國際期刊《美國國家科學院院刊》(PNAS)。
💥大戰血腥片,慎入:https://reurl.cc/E7mON1
蠔菇、杏鮑菇等側耳屬(Pleurotus)真菌為相當常見的食用菇類,亦稱為食肉真菌。科學家發現在貧瘠環境中,這些菇類的菌絲會麻痺並殺死線蟲以獲取養份,但是對此快速麻痺機制所知甚少。所以,薛雁冰研究團隊利用模式生物 ——秀麗隱桿線蟲(Caenorhabditis elegans)來研究食用菇類麻痺線蟲的分子機制。團隊發現當線蟲碰到蠔菇的菌絲釋放的毒素時,線蟲肌肉裡的鈣離子濃度會異常的飆高,使得肌肉過度收縮而麻痺癱瘓。

除了上述提到的食用菇類之外,研究團隊亦發現「#線蟲捕捉菌(Nematode-trapping fungi, NTF)」,在環境養分不足的條件下可以感知到線蟲的存在,發育出具黏著力的 #陷阱(捕捉構造)來捕捉線蟲。研究團隊將一株產孢、生長能力與製造陷阱能力均突出的線蟲捕捉菌進行基因體定序解碼,以期深入研究線蟲捕捉菌捕捉線蟲的分子機制,並進一步發現,線蟲捕捉菌需要G蛋白的訊息傳遞才會產生捕捉構造,證明了G蛋白在線蟲捕捉菌的捕食行為中扮演重要角色。此次發現可望在未來發展出有效的生物防治方法,來防治危害農業的寄生性線蟲。

🍄Sensory cilia as the Achilles heel of nematodes when attacked by carnivorous mushrooms│
Oyster mushrooms, one of the most common edible fungi, prey on nematodes under starvation conditions. They produce potent toxins which paralyze the nematodes within minutes. Dr. Yen-Ping Hsueh’s group at Institute of Molecular Biology, Academia Sinica, use the model nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, to investigate how does mushroom paralyze and kill the nematodes. In their article titled “Sensory cilia as the Achilles heel of nematodes when attacked by carnivorous mushrooms” published in PNAS, they demonstrated that the contact of the fungal hyphae of oyster mushroom triggered massive calcium influx and rapid cell necrosis in the neuromuscular system of C. elegans via nematode’s sensory cilia.
🍄Natural diversity in the predatory behavior facilitates the establishment of a robust model strain for nematode-trapping fungi│
The living component of soils and the interactions among them play central roles in various aspects of biogeochemistry. These include some of the most abundant organisms on Earth such as fungi and nematodes. The lab led by Dr. Yen-Ping Hsueh at the Institute of Molecular Biology of Academia Sinica studies the interactions between nematodes and nematode-trapping fungi (NTF). NTF are predatory fungi preying on nematodes when food sources are limited.
