Host Plant Constancy in Ovipositing Manduca sexta [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2021 AbstractMany pollinating insects exhibit flower constancy, i.e. they target flower species they have already experienced and fed from. While the insects might profit from reduced handling costs when revisiting similar flowers, flower constancy, in addition, is of benefit for the plants as it guarantees pollen transfer to conspecifics.

Antennal transcriptome of Manduca sexta [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011 In recent years, considerable progress has been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying olfaction in insects. Because of the diverse nature of the gene families involved, this process has largely relied on genomic data. As a consequence, studies have focused on a small subset of species with extensive genomic information.
