Synthesis of insect sex pheromones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The traditional use of insecticides continues to be practised in the control of insect populations, the newer methods such as the application of pheromones in the crop protection have gained prominence in the recent years. Since the pheromones have to be

Nucleus Accumbens Dopamine Signaling Regulates Sexual Preference for Females in Male Mice

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Sexual preference for the opposite sex is a fundamental behavior underlying reproductive success, but the neural mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we examined the role of dopamine signaling in the nucleus accumbens core (NAcc) in governing chemosensory ...

From Patterns to Attractor‐Like Modes: A Systems Sensemaking Framework for Recurring Conflict in Healthcare Teams

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recurring conflict in healthcare teams frequently persists despite well‐intended interventions (Page et al. 2024; Mazzei et al. 2024). Dynamic systems theory helps to map how such recurrences reflect systemic feedback loops linking individual experience, behaviour, shared beliefs and organisational structures, supporting intervention design at

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

Associated Bacteria Affect Sexual Reproduction by Altering Gene Expression and Metabolic Processes in a Biofilm Inhabiting Diatom

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Diatoms are unicellular algae with a fundamental role in global biogeochemical cycles as major primary producers at the base of aquatic food webs. In recent years, chemical communication between diatoms and associated bacteria has emerged as a key factor

Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Building Blocks as Experiences in Dynamic Capacitated Arc Routing Problems

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic capacitated arc routing problem (DCARP) aims to update the service paths of vehicles in the capacitated arc routing problem when uncertain factors deteriorate the current schedule of vehicles' services. A DCARP scenario comprises a series of DCARP instances that share similarities with each other. Therefore, optimisation experience

Pheromones and attractants of click beetles : an overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The study of pheromones of click beetles was started with the objective of applying similar methods in IPM strategies for the control of wireworms, based on the similar experience gained from the widely used moth pheromones.

Cold-adapted Euplotes pheromones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Species of Euplotes rely on diffusible signal proteins (pheromones) to promote their mitotic reproduction and mating (sexual) phenomena. Two of these pheromones have recently been structurally characterized from an Antarctic species, E.
