DOI: 10.1016/j.ibmb.2018.05.003
Abstract: Insect general odorant binding proteins (GOBPs) have been long thought to bind and transport host plant volatiles to the olfactory receptors on the dendrite membrane of the olfactory neurons. Recent studies indicate that they can… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0007485318000068
Abstract: Abstract It is difficult to control Holotrichia parallela Motschulsky with chemical insecticides due to the larvae's soil-living habit, thus the pest has caused great economic losses in agriculture. In addition, uridine diphosphate-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) catalyze the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1163/15707563-20191022
Abstract: Sexual dimorphism, particularly at the level of sensory and locomotor organs, is usually attributed to sexual selection. Antennae are notably developed in males of species that need to detect a sex pheromone at low concentration… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.217406
Abstract: ABSTRACT We performed an RNA-seq-based comparison of gene expression levels in the antennae of honey bee drones and time-trained foragers (workers) collected at different times of the day and different activity states. Interestingly, olfaction-related genes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232415775
Abstract: Scopula subpunctaria, an abundant pest in tea gardens, produce type-II sex pheromone components, which are critical for its communicative and reproductive abilities; however, genes encoding the proteins involved in the detection of type-II sex pheromone… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/insects13020183
Abstract: Simple Summary Leaf beetle Ophraella communa is considered an effective biocontrol agent against the common ragweed Ambrosia artemisiifolia. However, there are no studies that assess the antennal sensilla and chemosensory proteins expression profiles of O.… read more here.
