Identification and Expression Profiling of Chemosensory Genes in Dendrolimus punctatus Walker [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Dendrolimus punctatus Walker is a serious pest affecting conifers in southern China. As extensive pesticide spraying is currently required to control D. punctatus, new control strategies are urgently needed.

Candidates for chemosensory genes identified in the Chinese citrus fly, Bactrocera minax, through a transcriptomic analysis [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2019 Background The males of many Bactrocera species (Diptera: Tephritidae) respond strongly to plant-derived chemicals (male lures) and can be divided into cue lure/raspberry ketone (CL/RK) responders, methyl eugenol (ME) responders and non-responders ...

Uncovering the Chemosensory System of a Subterranean Termite, Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki) (Isoptera: Termitidae): Revealing the Chemosensory Genes and Gene Expression Patterns. [PDF]
Insects, 2023 Termites are eusocial insects. Chemical signals between colony members are crucial to the smooth running of colony operations, but little is known about their olfactory system and the roles played by various chemosensory genes in this process. Chemosensory genes are involved in basic olfactory perception in insects. Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki) is

Discovery of Chemosensory Genes in the Oriental Fruit Fly, Bactrocera dorsalis.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, is a devastating fruit fly pest in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Like other insects, this fly uses its chemosensory system to efficiently interact with its environment. However, our understanding of the

Chemosensory-Related Genes in Marine Copepods
Marine Drugs, 2022 Living organisms deeply rely on the acquisition of chemical signals in any aspect of their life, from searching for food, mating and defending themselves from stressors. Copepods, the most abundant and ubiquitous metazoans on Earth, possess diversified and highly specified chemoreceptive structures along their body.

Identification of chemosensory genes in the stingless bee Tetragonisca fiebrigi. [PDF]
G3 (Bethesda)Abstract Reception of chemical information from the environment is crucial for insects' survival and reproduction. The chemosensory reception mainly occurs by the antennae and mouth parts of the insect, when the stimulus contacts the chemoreceptors located within the sensilla.

Identification of a nematode chemosensory gene family [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 Taking advantage of the recent availability of the whole genome sequence of Caenorhabditis briggsae , a closely related nematode to Caenorhabditis elegans , we have examined the chemosensory gene superfamily by using comparative genomic methods.

Candidate Chemosensory Genes in the Stemborer Sesamia nonagrioides [PDF]
International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2013 The stemborer Sesamia nonagrioides is an important pest of maize in the Mediterranean Basin. Like other moths, this noctuid uses its chemosensory system to efficiently interact with its environment. However, very little is known on the molecular mechanisms that underlie chemosensation in this species.
