Characterization of Antennal Chemosensilla and Associated Chemosensory Genes in the Orange Spiny Whitefly, Aleurocanthus spiniferus (Quaintanca) [PDF]
The insect chemosensory system plays an important role in many aspects of insects’ behaviors necessary for their survival. Despite the complexity of this system, an increasing number of studies have begun to understand its structure and function in ...

Antennal Transcriptome Analysis and Identification of Candidate Chemosensory Genes of the Harlequin Ladybird Beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) [PDF]
In predatory ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), antennae are important for chemosensory reception used during food and mate location, and for finding a suitable oviposition habitat.

Transcriptome Analysis and Identification of Chemosensory Genes in Leguminivora glycinivorella [PDF]
The soybean pod borer, Leguminivora glycinivorella, is a monophagous pest that threatens soybean production. Its larvae feed concealed within pods, which limits the efficacy of conventional insecticides.

De novo genome assembly, annotation, and characterization of chemosensory genes in the camel ked (Hippobosca camelina) [PDF]
Background Hippobosca camelina (camel ked) is an obligate hematophagous ectoparasite that infests camels. Hematophagy inflicts painful bites leading to myiasis, anemia and pathogen transmission such as Candidatus Anaplasma camelii.
