Rapid degeneration of Drosophila olfactory neurons in Orco mutant maxillary palps

open access: yesmicroPublication biology, 2021
The odorant receptor co-receptor Orco forms ligand-gated ion channels with odorant receptors (ORs) tuned to specific odors; Orco is required for trafficking of these complexes to the dendrites of olfactory neurons (Larsson et. al., 2004). Mutation of the Orco gene not only abolishes olfactory neuron activity but has also revealed potential new roles ...

Ultrastructure of sensilla on antennae and maxillary palps in three Mesembrinellidae species [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2018
Abstract Background Having the right identification is essential in the field of entomology. The scanning electron microscopy allows rapid and accurate identification of different species of flies since a better visualization of the external morphology of immature and some adults is possible. The aim of this study is to describe some ultrastructures of
