The maxillary palp sensory pathway of Orthoptera

open access: yesArthropod Structure & Development, 2000
Primary sensory projections and arborisations of higher-order neurons associated with the maxillary palps were examined in Tettigoniidae, Gryllidae, Tetrigidae and Acrididae representing the two sub-orders of Orthoptera, Ensifera and Caelifera. Anterograde filling and Golgi impregnation of maxillary receptor neurons revealed two patterns of innervation,

The maxillary palp of Drosophila  : ultrastructure and physiology depends on the lozenge gene

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1997
The ultrastructure and physiology of the maxillary palp of Drosophila melanogaster have been studied in wild-type and lozenge mutants. Olfactory physiology in the maxillary palp is shown to depend upon the lozenge(lz) gene. Reduced response amplitudes were recorded for all odorants tested, and the physiological defect was shown to map to the lz locus ...

The maxillary palp of Aedes aegypti, a model of multisensory integration

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2014
Female yellow-fever mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti, are obligate blood-feeders and vectors of the pathogens that cause dengue fever, yellow fever and Chikungunya. This feeding behavior concludes a series of multisensory events guiding the mosquito to its host from a distance.

Ultrastructural Morphology of the Antenna and Maxillary Palp ofSarcophaga tibialis(Diptera: Sarcophagidae)

open access: yesJournal of Medical Entomology, 2016
A scanning electron microscopy investigation of the antenna and maxillary palp of the adult of Sarcophaga tibialis Macquart (Diptera: Sarcophagidae), a species of medical, veterinary, and forensic relevance, is presented for the first time. Adults of both sexes used in this study were obtained from larvae collected in a case of traumatic myiasis in a ...

Olfactory physiology in the Drosophila maxillary palp requires the visual system gene rdgB

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1994
We describe the kinetics of odorant response in the maxillary palp of Drosophila, and show that the rate of recovery from odorant stimulation is affected by mutation of the rdgB (retinal degeneration B) gene. We use immunocytochemistry to confirm that the rdgB gene product is expressed in the maxillary palp.

Quantifying relative importance of maxillary palp information on the olfactory behavior of Drosophila melanogaster

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1994
Maxillary palps have been proposed as secondary olfactory organs, after the antennae, in Drosophila melanogaster. Our study tries to establish the quantitative importance of both organs as olfactory information mediators. Dose-response curves for three odorants: ethyl acetate, propionaldehyde and benzaldehyde were carried out for comparing olfaction in
