A synaptic resolution somatotopic map of nearly all mechanosensory neurons on the Drosophila head that individually elicit aimed grooming of specific head locations and collectively elicit a head grooming sequence.

A functional genetics approach reveals a novel role for odorant binding proteins in post-mating processes, with complex mechanisms of evolutionary change across closely related insect species.

Genetic analyses and mathematical modeling reveal that disrupting genes essential for sex determination and fertility in Aedes aegypti leads to the production of sterile males, effectively suppressing mosquito populations.

Bees are at risk of consuming harmful pesticides found in nectar because they cannot detect them using their mouthparts.

retro-Tango, developed and validated in multiple circuits in Drosophila melanogaster, is established as a genetically encoded, transsynaptic labeling system in the retrograde direction.

A new screening strategy for divergent homologs of insect odorant and gustatory receptors, based upon predicted three-dimensional structural similarity, unexpectedly identifies candidates in humans.

Drosophila suzukii, which lays eggs on ripe fruits, differs from Drosophila melanogaster in sweet sensation, mechanosensation, and their integration.

Large-scale monitoring of Anopheles populations benefits from a robust and accurate species identification and plasmodium detection method that is applicable to the entire genus.
