11. Pyralid moth reproduction: Communication, Constraints & Control
Sammanfattning : Olfactory cues play an important role in the reproduction of three pyralid moths, the Indian meal moth (Plodia interpunctella), the Mediterranean flour moth (Ephestia kuehniella) and the almond moth (E. cautella). Both males and females of P. interpunctella are capable of multiple matings. LÄS MER
12. Olfaction in the spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus : receptor, neuron and habitat
Sammanfattning : The bark beetle Ips typographus regularly kills spruce trees in the Palearctic. Spruces are colonized by means of attraction to an aggregation pheromone. Attraction is modulated by anti-attractive volatiles (NHV) from non-host plants. In this thesis, olfaction in I. LÄS MER
13. DNA microarray approaches to understanding the regulation and evolution of gene expression networks
Sammanfattning : DNA microarray technology allows biological and medical research to shift from investigation of individual functions of a few related genes to the whole genome level. This creates opportunities for discovery of complex and coordinated transcriptional networks in biological systems. LÄS MER
14. Population management of cone and seed insects in spruce seed orchards
Sammanfattning : Seed orchards have been established in order to produce high quality seeds for reforestation and forestation. However, seed production in spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) seed orchards is severely hampered by cone- and seed-feeding insects. LÄS MER
15. Smells of sociality : insect chemoreceptors, sex and habitat cues
Sammanfattning : The last two decades have seen considerable research effort dedicated to understanding the molecular basis of insect olfaction. There are, however, many knowledge gaps, especially when it comes to how insects detect different olfactory stimuli from the environment. LÄS MER
