Dynamic Changes in Chemosensory Gene Expression during the Dendrolimus punctatus Mating Process
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 The insect chemosensory system is pivotal for interactions with their environments, and moths have especially sensitive olfaction. Exploration of the connection between the plasticity of olfactory-guided and molecular level pathways in insects is ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Although most of the damage caused by lepidopteran insects to plants is caused by the larval stage, chemosensory systems have been investigated much more frequently for lepidopteran adults than for larvae. The fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (J.

Conserved orthology in termite chemosensory gene families
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Termites are eusocial insects known to use a variety of pheromones in tasks necessary for maintenance of their societies. As such, olfaction and pheromone communication in termites has been an object of intense study; trail-following pheromones (TFPs ...

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.This study shows the protective effects of potential probiotic strain of Pediococci strains against diarrheal Escherichia coli strains in Caenorhabditis elegans model system. The E. coli strains resulted in severe morphological and physiological damage to the worm whereas the probiotic interventions were able to reduce these damages.

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

Reprogrammable All‐Photonic Molecular Logic With Ln3+ Luminescent Hybrids in Solid State
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.Mario P. de‐Saralegui et al. report an Eu3⁺/Tb3⁺‐doped organic–inorganic hybrid material that enables multiple reprogrammable logic operations using only physical stimuli. Additionally, this solid‐state, all‐photonic platform represents the first example in the literature performing reversible Feynman logic operations, marking a major step toward ...

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.We identified and characterized the gustatory and ionotropic receptors of Cydia pomonella using transcriptomics and in silico approaches, linking candidate sugar receptors to larval feeding attraction. Functional assays and behavioral tests highlighted isoquercitrin as a key feeding stimulant, providing a foundation for olfactory‐ and taste‐based pest ...
