Aerobic Exercise Preserves Olfaction Function in Individuals with Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's Disease, 2016 Introduction. Based on anecdotal reports of improved olfaction following aerobic exercise, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of an 8-week aerobic exercise program on olfaction function in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods.

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1996 An olfactory sensory neuron most probably expresses a single olfactory receptor gene, out of 1000 choices. Olfactory neurons expressing the same olfactory receptor are distributed over a wide area of the olfactory epithelium, but they project their axons to a few discrete positions in the olfactory bulb, out of 2500 choices. How?

Antbears and underground melons: A highly specialized seed dispersal mutualism mediated by scent
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Seed dispersal is critical for the establishment and persistence of populations of most plant species. We investigated the seed dispersal biology of an African melon, Cucumis humifructus, which is closely related to cultivated cucumbers and watermelons but differs in that it buries its fruits deep underground.

In situ Chemotaxis Assay in Caenorhabditis elegans (for the Study of Circadian Rhythms)
Bio-Protocol, 2014 Olfaction is a well-studied sensory mechanism in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). The nematodes respond to a wide range of chemicals by either attraction, repulsion or a mixture thereof (Bargmann et al., 1993).

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2019 AbstractRaptors from the orders Accipitriformes and Falconiformes have been considered to rely principally on vision. Historically, this assumption has led scientists to discount any possible sense of smell in these birds, until work on cathartid vultures indicated that these species at least rely on olfaction to find carrion.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Fall armyworm (FAW) preferred ovipositing on vegetative‐stage soybeans. While ‘mother knows best’ may not apply in soybean‐FAW system, muffled cues in the reproductive stage could positively influence host success. Abstract BACKGROUND While the mother knows best/preference performance hypothesis has been well tested in natural ecosystems, how these ...

A case of Lewy body disease and anaplastic astrocytoma presenting with atypical parkinsonism
Neuropathology, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 540-547, December 2022., 2022 We report on a patient with atypical parkinsonism due to coexistent Lewy body disease (LBD) and diffuse anaplastic astrocytoma. The patient presented with a mixed cerebellar and parkinsonian syndrome, incomplete levodopa response, and autonomic failure. The clinical diagnosis was multiple system atrophy (MSA).

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi are major pests on wheat. Natural product‐based aphid resistance holds promise for the sustainable control of these pests. The current literature is discussed, highlighting knowledge gaps and challenges that need addressing. Abstract Cereal aphids, Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi, cause severe yield loss in
