Perception of oviposition-deterring larval tracks in aphidophagous coccinellids Cycloneda limbifer and Ceratomegilla undecimnotata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2003
The ability of the aphidophagous coccinellids Cycloneda limbifer Casey and Ceratomegilla undecimnotata (Schneider) to discriminate between simultaneously provided clean paper strips and paper strips with oviposition-deterring larval tracks was studied ...

A carboxylesterase, Esterase-6, modulates sensory physiological and behavioural response dynamics to pheromone in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Insects respond to the spatial and temporal dynamics of a pheromone plume, which implies not only a strong response to"odor on", but also to"odor off". This requires mechanisms geared toward a fast signal termination.

Ultrastructural Characterization of Developmental Stages and Head Sensilla in Portici okadai, Vector of Thelazia callipaeda

open access: yesInsects
Phortica okadai, a vector of Thelazia callipaeda, is associated with an increasing incidence of thelaziasis. The complex habitat and chemosensory system of P. okadai are critical for its proliferation and expansion.

Revision of taxonomic status of Anthrenus pimpinellae isabellinus (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2020
For 160 years, Anthrenus pimpinellae isabellinus Küster, 1848 has been considered a subspecies of A. pimpinellae Fabricius, 1775. However, habitus shape differs between the subspecies with A. p. isabellinus being broader than A. p.

Movement and olfactory signals: Sexually dimorphic antennae and female flightlessness in moths

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Darwin argued a role for sexual selection in the evolution of male sensory structures, including insect antennae, the strength of which will depend upon the importance of early arrival at receptive females. There is remarkable variation in the nature and

Molecular characterization and differential expression of olfactory genes in the antennae of the black cutworm moth Agrotis ipsilon. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Insects use their sensitive and selective olfactory system to detect outside chemical odorants, such as female sex pheromones and host plant volatiles. Several groups of olfactory proteins participate in the odorant detection process, including odorant ...

Identification of antennal alternative splicing by combining genome and full-length transcriptome analysis in Bactrocera dorsalis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
Alternative splicing is an essential post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism that diversifies gene function by generating multiple protein isoforms from a single gene and act as a crucial role in insect environmental adaptation.

Planar antennas [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Microwave Magazine, 2006
The development of the broadband antenna for ultrawideband (UWB) applications such as communications, imaging, radar, and localization is discussed. UWB systems are based on transmitting and receiving impulses with extremely wide spectra. As the antennas for UWB should have broad operating bandwidths for impedance matching and high-gain radiation in ...
