Central Processing of Plant Odor Mixtures and Single Odorants in the Moth Heliothis virescens
Høydal, Øyvind Arne (Master thesis, 2012)SamandragInsekt nyttar luktesansen til mange formål som er avgjerande for overlevnad og reproduktiv suksess. Ein veksande kunnskapsbase tyder på at miksturar av nokre få biologisk relevante plantevolatiler kan vekke ... -
GABA Immunostaining of the Olfactory Pathway in the Heliothine Moth Brain
Jacobsen, Bente (Master thesis, 2012)γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in all known nervous systems, and it is widely distributed in the olfactory circuit as well as other parts of the invertebrate brain. In order to further ... -
Morphological Characterization of Descending Neurons and Determination of Output areas in the Brain of the Moth Heliothis virescens
Børø, Siri (Master thesis, 2012)Knowledge on how an insect s behavior changes in response to chemical substances in the environment can ultimately contribute to the development of biologically harmless pest controls. One of the links between sensory ... -
Physiological Characterization of Protocerebral Neurons in the Olfactory Network of the Moth, Heliothis virescens
Kirkerud, Nicholas Hagen (Master thesis, 2011)In the sensory systems of insects, the primary olfactory centre in the antennal lobe has been one of the major areas of interest for the last two decades. Considerable progress has been made in understanding this earlier ... -
Processing of Gustatory Information by Protocerebral Neurons in the Moth Heliothis virescens
Nilssen, Eirik Stamland (Master thesis, 2012)Insects are guided to potential host plants by visual and olfactory signals. Upon arrival they encounter various taste stimuli, ultimately deciding whether the plant is a proper food or oviposition source. The detection ... -
Reconstruction and Registration of three Bilateral Protocerebral Neurons in the Standard Brain Atlas of the Moth Heliothis virescens
Mørk, Helene Engeness (Master thesis, 2013)Insect behaviour is tightly connected to their ability to detect important sensory information from their environment. The tobacco moth Heliothis virescens moth follows airborne stimuli to acquire partners, food and suitable ... -
Representation of pheromones, interspecific signals, and plant odors in higher olfactory centers; mapping physiologically identified antennal-lobe projection neurons in the male heliothine moth
Zhao, Xin-Cheng; Kvello, Pål; Løfaldli, Bjarte Bye; Lillevoll, Siri Corneliussen; Mustaparta, Hanna; Berg, Bente Gunnveig (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The arrangement of anatomically separated systems for information about general and pheromone odorants is well documented at the initial levels of the olfactory pathway both in vertebrates and insects. In the primary ...
