Comparison of odor detection thresholds for n-butanol and benzaldehyde determined with a dynamic dilution olfactometer and in room air

Indoor Environments
The German Committee on Indoor Air Guide Values (AIR) has developed a concept of odor guide values (OGV) based on odor detection thresholds (ODT) to assess the plausibility of complaints about odor annoyance. ODT were determined directly at the nose with

Anopheles darlingi (Diptera: Culicidae) displays increased attractiveness to infected individuals with Plasmodium vivax gametocytes

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Most hematophagous insects use host odours as chemical cues. The odour components, some physiological parameters and host attractiveness are affected by several conditions, including infection by parasites, e.g., plasmodia and, therefore ...

Chemical ecology and olfactory behaviour of an aphid parasitoid and a lacewing predator

, 2008
Female parasitoid (Aphidius colemani) olfactory preference was consistently biased in olfactometer experiments towards the Brassica cultivar on which it was reared when offered other Brassica cultivars as alternatives using either whole plants or ...

Bactrocera Cucurbitae response to four Cymbopogon species essential oils [PDF]

, 2016
GC/MS analysis of essential oils extracted from four Cymbopogon species revealed that the majors compounds were trans-p-mentha-1(7),8-dien-2-ol (21.9%), cis-p-mentha-1(7),8-den- 2-ol (19.4%), trans-p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol (9.6%), cis-p-mentha-2,8-dien-1 ...

Strong Attraction of the Parasitoid Cotesia marginiventris Towards Minor Volatile Compounds of Maize [PDF]

, 2018
Plants infested with herbivorous arthropods emit complex blends of volatile compounds, which are used by several natural enemies as foraging cues. Despite detailed knowledge on the composition and amount of the emitted volatiles in many plant-herbivore ...

Innate preference for host-odor blends modulates degree of anthropophagy of Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

In field studies, Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto obtains most blood meals from humans, whereas Anopheles quadriannulatus Theobald bites predominantly bovids. We investigated whether host odors modulate the host preference of these mosquito species.
