Studies of neuropeptide and peptide hormone signaling are coming of age in Drosophila
due to rapid developments in molecular genetics approaches that overcome the difficulties …

Highly interconnected neural networks perform olfactory signal processing in the central
nervous system. In insects, the first synaptic processing of the olfactory input from the …

Ivermectin is a veterinary pharmaceutical generally used to control the ecto-and
endoparasites of livestock, but its use has resulted in adverse effects on coprophilous …

Abstract Each fall, eastern North American monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) use a

We present a detailed analysis of the brain anatomy of two saturniid species, the cecropia
silk moth, Hyalophora cecropia, and the Chinese oak silk moth, Antheraea pernyi, including …

The serotonergic system has been widely studied across animal taxa and different functional
networks. This modulatory system is therefore well positioned to compare the consequences …

Background Several lineages within the Crustacea conquered land independently during
evolution, thereby requiring physiological adaptations for a semi-terrestrial or even a fully …

This study investigates anatomical organization of the antennal lobe (AL) glomeruli of the
male cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera by synaptic antibody staining combined with …

Abstract Information transmission and processing in the brain is achieved through a small
family of chemical neurotransmitters and neuromodulators and a very large family of …
