The manipulation of odor availability of training aids used in detection canine training

open access: yesFrontiers in Allergy
Detection canines can identify numerous substances for which they have been trained. Historically, and a point of ongoing contention, detection canine threshold (i.e., sensitivity or limit of detection) training has primarily focused on changing the ...

A Nuclear Hormone Receptor nhr‐76 Induces Age‐Dependent Chemotaxis Decline in C. elegans

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
A forward genetic screen in C. elegans identified a nuclear hormone receptor, nhr‐76, as a gene that programs age‐dependent behavioral decline. In post‐reproductive adults, NHR‐76 downregulates odr‐10 that encodes an odorant receptor, leading to impaired chemotaxis.

Evaluation of Volatile Organic Compounds from Spotted Lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) Eggs Using Headspace Odor Sampling Methods

open access: yesInsects
The spotted lanternfly (SLF) is an invasive species native to China. It was first discovered in the United States in Pennsylvania in 2014. It is known to cause great economic damage by destroying various crops, specifically grape vines, and therefore ...

Using context to make gas classifiers robust to sensor drift

open access: yes, 2020
The interaction of a gas particle with a metal-oxide based gas sensor changes the sensor irreversibly. The compounded changes, referred to as sensor drift, are unstable, but adaptive algorithms can sustain the accuracy of odor sensor systems.

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

From beginning to end: the synecology of tree‐killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

The Olfactory Nervous System Of Terrestrial And Aquatic Vertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Animals in their natural milieu are surrounded by odors. These odors are rich source of information, and are perceived by sophisticated olfactory systems, that have evolved over time.
