  1. 11. Fruit and microbial cues in the behavioural ecology and management of Drosophila suzukii

    Författare :Guillermo Rehermann Del Rio; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Investigating the factors that determine the behaviour of new pests is essential for understanding, predicting and managing their impact on natural and agricultural ecosystems. The spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura; Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a worldwide spreading polyphagous pest of soft fruit and berries. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Chemosensation in Aedes aegypti: from molecular response profiles to host-seeking behaviour

    Författare :Anaïs Tallon; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The female mosquito Aedes aegypti is the primary urban vector of various highly infectious neglected tropical diseases. Disease transmission relies heavily on odourmediated behaviours, including e.g., sugar- and host-seeking, which are crucial during the mosquito life cycle and has dire impacts on vectorial capacity.

  4. 13. Respiratory influences on pupil size dynamics and visual recognition memory

    Författare :Martin Schaefer; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Breathing, a fundamental rhythm of life, has traditionally been associated with the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. However, recent research in both animal models and humans has unveiled additional roles of respiration in modulating cortical neuronal activity, influencing sensory, motor, emotional, and cognitive processes.

  5. 14. Sick of smells : Empirical findings and a theoretical framework for chemical intolerance

    Författare :Linus Andersson; Steven Nordin; Monique Smeets; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Chemical Intolerance; Unexplained Medical Symptoms; Environmental Intolerance; Event-related potentials; functional magnetic resonance imaging; psychophysics; sensitization; habituation; Psychology; psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical intolerance (CI) is a term that refers to the surprisingly common phenomenon of persons getting ill from everyday chemicals. Although seemingly similar to asthma and allergies, CI sufferers do not react to exposures with increased histamine release. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Insights into the Evolution of Moth Pheromone Communication: Lessons from the European Corn Borer

    Författare :Jean-Marc Lassance; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biosynthetic enzymes; evolution; Ostrinia nubilalis; mate choice; mate finding; olfaction; biosynthesis; speciation; moth; pheromone; olfactory receptors.;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical communication by means of sex pheromones is central to the mating systems of a wide range of organisms. Because reproductive isolation is often based on pheromone differences, understanding how pheromones diverge is necessary for a complete comprehension of the speciation process. LÄS MER
