Sulfur Isotopic Fractionation of the Youngest Chang'e‐5 Basalts: Constraints on the Magma Degassing and Geochemical Features of the Mantle Source

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
The unusually prolonged volcanism at the Chang'e‐5 (CE‐5) landing site remains a mystery. To constrain the geochemical features of the CE‐5 mantle source, we performed in situ sulfur isotope analysis on sulfides of the CE‐5 basalts.

Hyperparasitoids use herbivore-induced plant volatiles to locate their parasitoid host.

PLoS Biology, 2012
Plants respond to herbivory with the emission of induced plant volatiles. These volatiles may attract parasitic wasps (parasitoids) that attack the herbivores. Although in this sense the emission of volatiles has been hypothesized to be beneficial to the

Plant volatiles and components influencing behavior of the field slug, deroceras-reticulatum (mull)

, 1980
A new bioassay was devised in which slugs were allowed to follow trails of the aqueous volatiles isolated from plants by vacuum distillation. Volatiles from lettuce, carrot and dandelion induced greatest response.

Improvement of a synthetic lure for Anopheles gambiae using compounds produced by human skin microbiota [PDF]

, 2011
Background - Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto is considered to be highly anthropophilic and volatiles of human origin provide essential cues during its host-seeking behaviour.

Use of volatiles of Aristolochia chilensis (Aristolochiaceae) in host searching by fourth-instar larvae and adults of Battus polydamas archidamas (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae: Troidini)

European Journal of Entomology, 2009
Papilionid butterflies of the tribe Troidini are specialists on plants of the family Aristolochiaceae. The role of plant volatiles in host recognition by adult and larval stages of these insects remains unknown.

Sequential pyrolysis for understanding specific influence of cellulose- and lignin-derived volatiles on properties of counterpart char

Green Chemical Engineering
Interactions of cellulose- and lignin-derived intermediates have been well documented during pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass. The reaction network for the interactions is rather complex, as cellulose-derived volatiles could interact/react with not ...

Two-step learning involved in acquiring olfactory preferences for plant volatiles by parasitic wasps

, 2012
Aphidius ervi is a parasitic wasp of several aphid species, including Acyrthosiphon pisum. This wasp is used as a biological control agent of its host aphid species in many regions of the world. Compared with responses to volatiles from intact plants, A.

Pitted Terrain on Vesta and Implications for the Presence of Volatiles. [PDF]

, 2012
We investigated the origin of unusual pitted terrain on asteroid Vesta, revealed in images from the Dawn spacecraft. Pitted terrain is characterized by irregular rimless depressions found in and around several impact craters, with a distinct morphology

Analisis senyawa volatil dari ekstrak tanaman yang berpotensi sebagai atraktan parasitoid telur wereng batang coklat, Anagrus nilaparvatae (Pang et Wang) (Hymenoptera: Mymaridae)

Jurnal Entomologi Indonesia, 2015
Plants produce volatiles as communication cues intra- or inter- species. Infested plants by herbivores will produce volatiles as indirect defense mechanism that attracts natural enemies of herbivores.
