The Expression of Chemosensory Genes in Male Maxillary Palps of Anopheles coluzzii (Diptera: Culicidae) and An. quadriannulatus. [PDF]
Because of its importance as a malaria vector, Anopheles coluzzii's Coetzee & Wilkerson olfactory system has been studied extensively. Among this work is a series of studies comparing the expression of chemosensory genes in olfactory organs in females ...

Fine Structure of Maxillary Palps in Adults of Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) [PDF]
A relevant species in waste management but also in forensic, medical, and veterinary sciences is the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens (Linnaeus; Diptera: Stratiomyidae). An ultrastructural study by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was conducted for

Maxillary palps are broad spectrum odorant detectors in Culex quinquefasciatus [PDF]
A single type of olfactory sensilla on maxillary palps in many species of mosquitoes houses a very sensitive olfactory receptor neuron (ORN) for carbon dioxide reception. We performed extensive single sensillum recordings from this peg sensillum in Culex

Wnt6 is required for maxillary palp formation in Drosophila [PDF]
Background: Wnt6 is an evolutionarily ancient member of the Wnt family. In Drosophila, Wnt6 loss-of-function animals have not yet been reported, hence information about fly Wnt6 function is lacking.

Rapid degeneration of <i>Drosophila</i> olfactory neurons in <i>Orco</i> mutant maxillary palps. [PDF]
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 ...
