Expressions of Olfactory Proteins in Locust Olfactory Organs and a Palp Odorant Receptor Involved in Plant Aldehydes Detection

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
The main chemosensory organs of locusts consisted of the antennae and the mouthparts (maxillary and labial palps), which are suggested to perform different functions.

The Bright Side of the Tiger: Autofluorescence Patterns in Aedes albopictus (Diptera, Culicidae) Male and Female Mosquitoes

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Light-based events in insects deserve increasing attention for various reasons. Besides their roles in inter- and intra-specific visual communication, with biological, ecological and taxonomical implications, optical properties are also promising tools ...

Table_2_Blood Meal Induced Regulation of Gene Expression in the Maxillary Palps, a Chemosensory Organ of the Mosquito Aedes aegypti.XLSX [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background:Aedes aegypti is a prominent and highly competent vector of several arboviral diseases, including dengue, yellow fever, and Zika. Behaviors associated with reproductive feeding, both pre- and post-blood meal, directly influence disease ...

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE SENSILLA ON ANTENNA AND MAXILLARY PALPS OF FIVE CULICINE MOSQUITOES IN SOHAG GOVERNORATE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2013
Mosquitoes are unquestionably the most medically important arthropod vectors of disease. The maintenance and transmission of the pathogens that cause malaria, lymphatic filariasis, and numerous viral infections are absolutely dependent on the ...

Functional development of carbon dioxide detection in the maxillary palp of Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2015
Olfactory information drives several behaviours critical for the survival and persistence of insect pests and vectors. Insect behaviour is variable, linked to their biological needs, and regulated by physiological dynamics. For mosquitoes, carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important cue that signifies the presence of a host, and which elicits activation and ...

Chemosensory gene expression in olfactory organs of the anthropophilic Anopheles coluzzii and zoophilic Anopheles quadriannulatus

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Anopheles (An.) coluzzii, one of Africa’s primary malaria vectors, is highly anthropophilic. This human host preference contributes greatly to its ability to transmit malaria. In contrast, the closely related An.

Sensing the underground--ultrastructure and function of sensory organs in root-feeding Melolontha melolontha (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae) larvae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Below ground orientation in insects relies mainly on olfaction and taste. The economic impact of plant root feeding scarab beetle larvae gave rise to numerous phylogenetic and ecological studies. Detailed knowledge of the sensory capacities

Labilochus brevipalpis, a new genus and species with extremely long mouthparts (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Tersilochinae) from Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Hymenoptera Research, 2017
Labilochus brevipalpis gen. & sp. n. from northeast Mexico is described and illustrated. The new genus is distinguished from all other Tersilochinae taxa by its extremely long glossa and galeae in combination with short maxillary and labial palps,
