With this aim, the book overviews the types of diets consumed by insects, describing their chemical components demanding digestion and discusses the evolutionary selective pressures on insects associated with feeding. Digestive enzymes are classified and detailed according to their activity on substrates and their evolutionary protein families. The technical details on how to obtain reliable enzymological parameters are discussed. The book reviews the structural changes in enzymes associated with the adaptation of insects to new diets and in avoiding natural plant inhibitors. Midgut features that enhance digestive and nutrient absorption efficiency and their underlying molecular mechanisms are described regarding insects pertaining to key points in evolution. Evolutionary trends of the mechanisms of digestion and nutrient absorption are discussed. \u003ch3\u003eBook details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; \"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNLS9783031392320\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eISBN 13\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e9783031392320\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eISBN 10\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e3031392329\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eWalter R Terra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eEntomology In Focus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eBinding Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eSpringer International Publishing AG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eYear published\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e2023-09-05\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eNumber of pages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003e260\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eCover note\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 6px 10px; border: 1px solid #ddd; \"\u003eBook picture is for illustrative purposes only, actual binding, cover or edition may vary.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer International Publishing AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67735461888245,"sku":"NLS9783031392320","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/8632\/8821\/files\/9783031392320.jpg?v=1792242397","url":"https:\/\/arbiyas.com\/products\/molecular-physiology-and-evolution-of-insect-digestive-systems-by-walter-r-terra-nls9783031392320","provider":"Arbiyas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
