    Analysis of fast calcium dynamics of honey bee olfactory coding

    Marco Paoli, Antoine Wystrach ... Martin Giurfa
    Fast calcium dynamics of honey bee olfactory projection neurons revealed an unprecedented heterogeneity of response profile dynamics and explained fundamental aspects of olfactory discrimination and associative learning.

    Drosophila model to clarify the pathological significance of OPA1 in autosomal dominant optic atrophy

    Yohei Nitta, Jiro Osaka ... Atsushi Sugie
    Dominant optic atrophy (DOA) and DOA plus mutations' effects on optic nerve degeneration distinguished in a novel Drosophila model.

    Drosophila HCN mediates gustatory homeostasis by preserving sensillar transepithelial potential in sweet environments

    MinHyuk Lee, Se Hoon Park ... KyeongJin Kang
    A hyperpolarization-activated cation channel, counteracting membrane depolarization, delimits the excitability of receptor neurons subjected to naturally prolonged stimulation to preserve the function of neighboring receptor neurons in Drosophila gustation.

    The trunk replaces the longer mandible as the main feeding organ in elephant evolution

    Chunxiao Li, Tao Deng ... Shiqi Wang
    The long mandibles were gradually replaced by more flexible trunks in the evolution of proboscideans.

    The larva and adult of Helicoverpa armigera use differential gustatory receptors to sense sucrose

    Shuai-Shuai Zhang, Pei-Chao Wang ... Chen-Zhu Wang
    The sweet taste receptors in the cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) are evolved to adapt towards the larval and adult foods with different types and amounts of sugar.

    Signatures of transposon-mediated genome inflation, host specialization, and photoentrainment in Entomophthora muscae and allied entomophthoralean fungi

    Jason E Stajich, Brian Lovett ... Carolyn Elya
    Entomophthora muscae has one of the largest fungal genomes (1.03 Gb) owing to extensive proliferation of transposable elements.

    Octopamine integrates the status of internal energy supply into the formation of food-related memories

    Michael Berger, Michèle Fraatz ... Henrike Scholz
    Intense starvation with high internal energy levels results in remarkably stable food-related memories that persist beyond actual food intake and are associated with overeating.

    Somatotopic organization among parallel sensory pathways that promote a grooming sequence in Drosophila

    Katharina Eichler, Stefanie Hampel ... Andrew M Seeds
    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.
