Identification of pyridine analogs as new predator-derived kairomones. [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 In the wild, animals have developed survival strategies relying on their senses. The individual ability to identify threatening situations is crucial and leads to increase in the overall fitness of the species.

Acidification and γ-aminobutyric acid independently alter kairomone-induced behaviour [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Exposure to high pCO2 or low pH alters sensation and behaviour in many marine animals. We show that crab larvae lose their ability to detect and/or process predator kairomones after exposure to low pH over a time scale relevant to diel pH cycles in ...

Effect of multimodal cues from a predatory fish on refuge use and foraging on an amphidromous shrimp [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background Prey can alter their behavior when detecting predator cues. Little is known about which sensory channel, number of channels, or the interaction among channels that shrimp species use to evaluate the threat from predators.

Scientific Reports, 2021 Animal behaviour is closely related to individual fitness, which allows animals to choose suitable mates or avoid predation. The central nervous system regulates many aspects of animal behaviour responses.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Kairomones are chemical signals that mediate interspecific interactions beneficial to organisms that detect the cues. These attractants can be individual compounds or mixtures of herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) or herbivore chemicals such as ...

Animals, 2022 In the wild, mice have developed survival strategies to detect volatile cues that warn them of potential danger. Specific olfactory neurons found in the Grueneberg ganglion olfactory subsystem can detect alarm pheromones emitted by stressed conspecifics,

Exposure of unwounded plants to chemical cues associated with herbivores leads to exposure-dependent changes in subsequent herbivore attack. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Although chemical predator cues often lead to changes in the anti-predator behavior of animal prey, it is not clear whether non-volatile herbivore kairomones (i.e.

Cucurbitacins as kairomones for diabroticite beetles [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1980 The characteristic bitter substances of the Cucurbitaceae act as kairomones for a large group of diabroticite beetles (Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Luperini), promoting host selection and compulsive feeding behavior. These beetles (e.g., Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi ) respond to as little as 1 ng of ...

Kairomone-like activity of bile and bile components: A step towards revealing the chemical nature of fish kairomone [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractDespite the efforts of a number of research groups worldwide, we still have a poor understanding of the chemical nature of the fish kairomones which induce defensive morphology, life history and behavior in their planktonic prey. Bile excreted by foraging fish play a crucial role in their signaling systems.

Do bacteria, not fish, produce ‘fish kairomone’? [PDF]
Journal of Plankton Research, 1998 Fish-associated chemicals enhance phototactic downward swimming in Daphnia. If perch were treated with the antibiotic ampicillin, this enhancement was significantly decreased. Therefore, not fish, but bacteria associated with fish, seem to produce this kairomone.
