Tactile conditioning and movement analysis of antennal sampling strategies in honey bees (Apis mellifera L.).
Honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) are eusocial insects and well known for their complex division of labor and associative learning capability(1, 2). The worker bees spend the first half of their life inside the dark hive, where they are nursing the larvae or building the regular hexagonal combs for food (e.g. pollen or nectar) and brood(3). The antennae are extraordinary multisensory feelers and p...
متن کاملHeterocyclic amine-induced cancer and myocardial lesions in nonhuman primates.
In his article, "Neurogenic Inflammation and Sensitivity to Environmental Chemicals" (101:234-238), Meggs speculates that neuropeptide mediators of inflammation may be responsible for sick building syndrome and multiple chemical sensitivity syndrome (MCS). He invokes a novel sixth sense, the "common chemical sense," in the noses of such patients. Meggs's speculations greatly exceed the scientif...
متن کاملNucleophile sensitivity of Drosophila TRPA1 underlies light-induced feeding deterrence
Solar irradiation including ultraviolet (UV) light causes tissue damage by generating reactive free radicals that can be electrophilic or nucleophilic due to unpaired electrons. Little is known about how free radicals induced by natural sunlight are rapidly detected and avoided by animals. We discover that Drosophila Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), previously known only as an el...
متن کاملCocaine affects foraging behaviour and biogenic amine modulated behavioural reflexes in honey bees
In humans and other mammals, drugs of abuse alter the function of biogenic amine pathways in the brain leading to the subjective experience of reward and euphoria. Biogenic amine pathways are involved in reward processing across diverse animal phyla, however whether cocaine acts on these neurochemical pathways to cause similar rewarding behavioural effects in animal phyla other than mammals is ...
متن کاملThe death of honey bees and environmental pollution by pesticides: the honey bees as biological indicators
The monitoring of pesticides with honey bees, which has been carried out by our group since the beginning of the 1980’s, is an extremely important technique not only for proving potential bee poisoning risks by the use of pesticides, but also for determining the degree of environmental contamination due to plant protection products. In fact, because of its morphological and ethological features...
