Multimodal targets of (-)-α-thujone mediating avoidance behavior of a stored-products pest, Tribolium castaneum, in response to irritant stimuli. [PDF]
We identified four kinds of target molecules against (‐)‐α‐thujone associating avoidance behavior in Tribolium castaneum, indicating multimodality. Abstract BACKGROUND The reciprocal evolutionary processes among phytophagous insects and host plants involve host shift in the herbivorous insects in response to defense chemicals, such as plant‐derived ...
