Chemoreception in larvae of the mothLymantria dispar [PDF]
Italian Journal of Zoology, 2002 Abstract Taste sensitivity in response to diet components was studied in larvae of the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar, by means of electro‐physiological and behavioural approaches. Dose‐response rela tionships were studied for NaCl, sucrose, and nicotine solutions with the aim of better characterizing chemoreceptor cells involved in gustation.
