From Factory to Field: Sex Pheromone of Plutella xylostella Produced in Yeast Cell-Factories Validated in Laboratory and Field Trials [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), the diamondback moth (DBM), is a cosmopolitan pest of brassicas. To validate and compare the performance of yeast-derived sex pheromone components with chemically synthesized ones, we studied the ...

Determination of Rice Accession Status Using Infochemical and Visual Cues Emitted to Sustainably Control Diopsis apicalis Dalman [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
This study assessed the host plant selection behavior of female stalk-eyed flies (SEFs) or Diopsis apicalis, where a Y-tube olfactometer was used to compare SEF attraction to the odor of leaves from four rice varieties (ITA306, WAB56-104, CG14, and RAM55)

Statistical Inference for Olfactometer Data

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C: Applied Statistics, 2007
SummaryOlfactometer experiments are used to determine the effect of odours on the behaviour of organisms such as insects or nematodes, and typically result in data comprising many groups of small overdispersed counts. We develop a non-homogeneous Markov chain model for data from olfactometer experiments with parasitoid wasps and discuss a relation with

Constructing an Olfactometer for Rodent Olfactory Behavior Studies. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis Exp
The use of olfactometers to study rodent behavior and brain activity during olfactory tasks is crucial for understanding brain circuits. These sophisticated devices allow researchers to precisely control and deliver odor stimuli, enabling the investigation of complex olfactory processes in rodents.

Potential volatiles emitted from jasmine plants infested by Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) and its attraction to predatory Scolothrips sexmaculatus (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

open access: yesPersian Journal of Acarology, 2023
Herbivore-induced volatiles were extracted from fresh healthy jasmine plants (Jasminum sambac L.) and infested jasmine plants damaged by two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae and analyzed through Gas Chromatography-Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to ...

Evaluation of Mosquito Attractant Candidates Using a High-Throughput Screening System for Aedes aegypti (L.), Culex quinquefasciatus Say. and Anopheles minimus Theobald (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Several types of olfactometers have been used to evaluate mosquito responses to agents that mimic natural volatiles that repel or attract. The Y-tube olfactometer has been widely used to study repellents and attractants, while the high-throughput ...
