Lipid A-Mediated Bacterial–Host Chemical Ecology: Synthetic Research of Bacterial Lipid As and Their Development as Adjuvants [PDF]
Molecules, 2021 Gram-negative bacterial cell surface component lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and its active principle, lipid A, exhibit immunostimulatory effects and have the potential to act as adjuvants.

Chemical Ecology of Marine Sponges: New Opportunities through "-Omics". [PDF]
Integr Comp Biol, 2019 The chemical ecology and chemical defenses of sponges have been investigated for decades; consequently, sponges are among the best understood marine organisms in terms of their chemical ecology, from the level of molecules to ecosystems.

Chemical ecology in conservation biocontrol: new perspectives for plant protection.
Trends in Plant Science, 2023 Threats to food security require novel sustainable agriculture practices to manage insect pests. One strategy is conservation biological control (CBC), which relies on pest control services provided by local populations of arthropod natural enemies ...

Chemical Ecology and Management of Dengue Vectors.
Annual Review of Entomology, 2023 Dengue, caused by the dengue virus, is the most widespread arboviral infectious disease of public health significance globally. This review explores the communicative function of olfactory cues that mediate host-seeking, egg-laying, plant-feeding, and ...

Chemical Ecology, Biochemistry, and Molecular Biology of Insect Hydrocarbons.
Annual Review of Entomology, 2021 Insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) consist of complex mixtures of straight-chain alkanes and alkenes, and methyl-branched hydrocarbons. In addition to restricting water loss through the cuticle and preventing desiccation, they have secondarily evolved ...

Chemical Ecology of Floral Resources in Conservation Biological Control.
Annual Review of Entomology, 2022 Conservation biological control aims to enhance populations of natural enemies of insect pests in crop habitats, typically by intentional provision of flowering plants as food resources.

Going belowground: burying anthropomorphic biases on gustation and olfaction
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Chemical signaling underpins behavioral interactions among organisms in the soil. Understanding chemical communication in the soil requires a paradigm shift in methodology and perspectives compared to aboveground ecosystems because olfaction and ...
