Evolution of olfactory pathways in drosophilids

, 2023
Animal’s behaviors are governed by complex signaling pathways that diverge in their function and architecture. This is evident when analyzing the enormous diversity of brain sizes and brain structures across the animal kingdom (Herculano-Houzel 2012). However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for these changes are nor very well understood.

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

An integrated anatomical, functional and evolutionary view of the Drosophila olfactory system

EMBO Reports
The Drosophila melanogaster olfactory system is one of the most intensively studied parts of the nervous system in any animal. Composed of ~50 independent olfactory neuron classes, with several associated hygrosensory and thermosensory pathways, it has ...

Visualization of Central Olfactory Pathways in a Model Brain: Universal Principles of Structural Organization Across Taxa [PDF]

, 2010
This thesis in clinical psychology has two main parts, answering the two main research problems. This scientific project includes visualization of neural pathways connecting the primary olfactory centre to higher association regions in a small insect ...

Structure Elucidation and Total Synthesis of Granolides A–C: Ethyl‐branched Sesquiterpenes From the Tropical Frog Gephyromantis granulatus

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Males of the tropical frog Gephyromantis granulatus carry unique ethyl‐branched sesquiterpenoid macrolactones in their scent glands. Their structure elucidation was performed by GC/MS, leading to the proposed structures of the granolides. A flexible enantioselective synthesis confirmed the structures and allowed determination of their absolute ...

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.
