The loci of contact chemoreceptors in Rhagoletis cingulata and Sarcophaga bullata were determined by local stimulation methods accompanied by removal of suspected locations. Rhagoletis cingulata has ...

Honey bees have a much better sense of smell than fruit flies or mosquitoes, but a much worse sense of taste, according to researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Honey bees ...

Bacterial chemoreceptors are widely used as a model system for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of transmembrane signalling and have provided a detailed understanding of how ligand binding by the ...

IN my first lecture I shall deal with chemoreceptors — that is, the nervous structures that control the lungs according to the chemical composition of the blood. Their discovery by Heymans and ...

Researchers from the University of Missouri are studying potential therapies to target specific cells linked to the development of cardiovascular and metabolic disorders like high blood pressure and ...
