Odorant receptor phylogeny confirms conserved channels for sex pheromone and host plant signals in tortricid moths

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The search for mates and food is mediated by volatile chemicals. Insects sense food odorants and sex pheromones through odorant receptors (ORs) and pheromone receptors (PRs), which are expressed in olfactory sensory neurons.

Multiple origins of the sodium channel kdr mutations in codling moth populations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Resistance to insecticides is one interesting example of a rapid current evolutionary change. DNA variability in the voltage-gated sodium channel gene (trans-membrane segments 5 and 6 in domain II) was investigated in order to estimate resistance ...

Toxicity and residual activity of spinetoram to neonate larvae of Grapholita molesta (Busck) and Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): Semi-field and laboratory trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Spinetoram is a fermentation insecticide, derived from the actinomycete Saccharopolyspora spinosa. It works by disrupting the GABA-gated chloride channels and by causing persistent activation of insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Disingenuous ‘box‐ticking’: Undergraduate students' attitudes towards university mental health awareness efforts

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Mental health problems are common among UK undergraduate students. In response, many universities have put considerable effort into raising awareness about student mental health problems and avenues of support (e.g., via workshops, posters, email newsletters and social media posts).
