Gain control network conditions in early sensory coding [PDF]
, 2013 Gain control is essential for the proper function of any sensory system. However, the precise mechanisms for achieving effective gain control in the brain are unknown.

Odor reception in antenna and antennal lobe of Drosophila [PDF]
Fly, 2011 In early years of neurogenetics of Drosophila, most of us were inclined to believe that behavior of the fruit fly is largely stereotyped and hard-wired. This, at least, was a common prejudice when genetic analysis of olfaction began. We now know that Drosophila like other insects is capable of several types of learning or experience-dependent ...

Spatial Representation of Feeding and Oviposition Odors in the Brain of a Hawkmoth
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Female hawkmoths, Manduca sexta, use olfactory cues to locate nectar sources and oviposition sites. We investigated if the behavioral significance of odorants is represented already in the antennal lobe, the first olfactory neuropil of the ...

Genetic and Functional Subdivision of the Drosophila Antennal Lobe [PDF]
Current Biology, 2005 Olfactory systems confer the recognition and discrimination of a large number of structurally distinct odor molecules. Recent molecular analysis of odorant receptor (OR) genes and circuits has led to a model of odor coding in which a population of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) expressing a single OR converges upon a unique olfactory glomerulus ...

Glomerular Organization of the Antennal Lobes of the Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella L.
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2019 The antennal lobe of the moth brain is the primary olfactory center processing information concerning pheromones and plant odors. Plutella xylostella is a major worldwide pest of cruciferous vegetables and its behavior is highly dependent on their ...

Structural and Functional Plasticity in the Regenerating Olfactory System of the Migratory Locust
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Regeneration after injury is accompanied by transient and lasting changes in the neuroarchitecture of the nervous system and, thus, a form of structural plasticity. In this review, we introduce the olfactory pathway of a particular insect as a convenient

A revision of the species of Anogdus LeConte of the United States and Canada (Coleoptera: Leiodidae: Leiodinae: Leiodini) [PDF]
, 2013 A review of the genus Anogdus LeConte (Coleoptera: Leiodidae: Leiodinae: Leiodini) of North America finds 16 species. Ten of these were previously described and there are no new synonyms. Six are named as new species: A. alachua n.

A large-scale model of the locust antennal lobe [PDF]
Journal of Computational Neuroscience, 2009 The antennal lobe (AL) is the primary structure within the locust's brain that receives information from olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) within the antennae. Different odors activate distinct subsets of ORNs, implying that neuronal signals at the level of the antennae encode odors combinatorially.
