Data-driven modeling of the olfactory neural codes and their dynamics in the insect antennal lobe [PDF]
Recordings from neurons in the insects' olfactory primary processing center, the antennal lobe (AL), reveal that the AL is able to process the input from chemical receptors into distinct neural activity patterns, called olfactory neural codes.

The Response to Selection for Broad Male Response to Female Sex Pheromone and its Implications for Divergence in Close-Range Mating Behavior in the European Corn Borer Moth, Ostrinia nubilalis [PDF]
Coordinated sexual communication systems, seen in many species of moths, are hypothesized to be under strong stabilizing natural selection. Stabilized communication systems should be resistant to change, but there are examples of species/populations that
