Volatile Compounds in Feathers of the Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao) Reflect Sex and Pair‐Bond Status
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Scarlet macaws exhibit sex‐ and pair‐related differences in plumage volatile composition, with males showing greater chemical richness. Partnered individuals differ in specific compound classes, whereas no clear association with immune function was detected. These results support a potential role for olfactory cues in sexual and social communication in

Retronasal Olfactory Function After Olfactory Training: A Prospective Single‐Arm Study
Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Retronasal olfaction is essential for aroma perception. Its impairment in individuals with olfactory dysfunction (OD) negatively affects dietary behaviour and quality of life. Regular exposure to odours in a form of olfactory training (OT) is used to rehabilitate the sense of smell.

Effect of Blue Light Intensity During Spreading on the Aroma of Green Tea
FoodsSpreading is the key process for ensuring green tea quality. However, the effect of blue light intensity conditions on the formation of green tea aroma and the evolution of key volatile compounds has not been assessed to date.

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Olfactory tuft cells communicate with other mucosal cells in maintaining olfactory epithelial immunity and sensory function. Disruption of tuft cell signalling pathways causes a skewed immune response, leading to heightened inflammation and increased activation of the quiescent stem cells, which are further exacerbated by viral infection.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Quantitation of key odorants in arginine/cysteine-glucose Maillard reactions
, 2019 Unlike many other named reactions in organic chemistry, the Maillard reaction is not a clearly defined single pathway. Instead, it is one of the most complex processes in food chemistry.

Fungal infection affects sexual signalling and mate choice in the sugarcane borer
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Fungus‐infected Diatraea saccharalis females exhibit enhanced attractiveness to males in wind tunnel assays. Fungal infection alters the pheromone profile of females, increasing the relative abundance of Z9‐16: Ald, a minor but behaviourally active component of the species' sex pheromone blend.

Nicotine as an odorant : a biochemical and electrophysiological study of receptors for nicotine in the olfactory epithelium of the rat [PDF]
The results suggest that nicotine vapour stimulates an in vitro olfactory preparation in three strains of rat and two strains of mouse, in a manner similar to known odorants.

A lipid‐sensitive food choice behavior influences aging outcomes from a longevity‐promoting diet
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.C. elegans are exposed to a variety of bacteria in their natural environment and must be able to distinguish between beneficial and detrimental food sources. We show that C. elegans exposed to the bacterium from their natural habitat, Methylobacterium, disrupts lipid homeostasis, causing worms to avoid this bacterial species and choose the laboratory ...
