Insects have developed highly sophisticated and sensitive olfactory systems to find animal
or plant hosts for feeding. Some insects vector pathogens that cause diseases in hundreds …

The fundamental units of olfactory perception are discrete 3D structures of volatile chemicals
that each interact with specific subsets of a very large family of hundreds of odorant receptor …

An animal's ability to navigate an olfactory environment is critically dependent on the
activities of its first-order olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). While considerable research …

Odorants interact with receptors expressed in specialized olfactory neurons, and neurons of
the same class send their axons to distinct glomeruli in the brain. The stereotypic spatial …

Many insects can detect carbon dioxide (CO2) plumes using a conserved receptor made up
of members of the gustatory receptor (Gr) family Gr1, Gr2 and Gr3. Mosquitoes are attracted …

Chemosensory processing encodes environmental information, relaying it to neural systems
that regulate key behavioral responses. This broad definition implies the study of …

Differential perception and subsequent differential use of habitats can generate local
adaptation, especially when natural selection cannot. However, this local adaptation is not …

The survival of many animals is dependent on their ability to navigate their environment to
find food. Information about food sources is typically conveyed by olfactory information. The …

La idea de que la selección natural es el mecanismo responsable de la adaptación de las
poblaciones a su entorno es uno de los fundamentos de la biología moderna.“Adaptación” …

Since near 200 years, homeopathy is used by inhalation. This medicine smells nothing and
so, is volatile non-odorant molecule. First, homeopathy was compared to pheromones. But …
