Andersson MN, Larsson MC, Schlyter F: Specificity and redundancy in the olfactory system of the bark beetle Ips typographus: single-cell responses to ecologically relevant odors. J Insect Physiol. 2009 Jun;55(6):556-67. Epub 2009 Feb 21.
Odor stimuli comprised of pheromone (various bark beetle spp.), host, and non-host compounds elicited strong and selective responses from 106 olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs), 45 of which were tuned to pheromone compounds, 37 to host compounds, and 24 to non-host volatiles (NHV).
Seven classes responded primarily to the Ips pheromone compounds: cis-verbenol, ipsenol, ipsdienol (two classes), 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, amitinol, or verbenone, respectively. |
