Head Lice Recognize and Prefer Head Odor over Foot and Forearms Odors
(Entomological Society of America, 2019-09)
Human head lice, Pediculus humanus capitis De Geer (Phthiraptera: Pediculidae), are hematophagous parasites that infest human heads. They are extreme host specialists suggesting a strict selection behavior towards the human ...
Bias to pollen odors is affected by early exposure and foraging experience
(Elsevier, 2014-05)
In many pollinating insects, foraging preferences are adjusted on the basis of floral cues learned at the foraging site. In addition, olfactory experiences gained at early adult stages might also help them to initially ...
NEONATAL HANDLING AND THE MATERNAL ODOR PREFERENCE IN RAT PUPS: INVOLVEMENT OF MONOAMINES AND CYCLIC AMP RESPONSE ELEMENT-BINDING PROTEIN PATHWAY IN THE OLFACTORY BULB
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2009)
Early-life environmental events, such as the handling procedure, can induce long-lasting alterations upon several behavioral and neuroendocrine systems. However, the changes within the pups that could be causally related ...
Affective semantic space of scents. Towards a universal scale to measure self-reported odor-related feelings
(Elsevier Sci LtdOxfordInglaterra, 2013)
Appetitive and aversive learning of plants odors inside different nest compartments by foraging leaf-cutting ants
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-08)
Cues inside the nest provide social insect foragers with information about resources currently exploited that may influence their decisions outside. Leaf-cutting ants harvest leaf fragments that are either further processed ...
Implicações do odor na percepção e escolha de parceiro
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBRUFRNPrograma de Pós-Graduação em PsicobiologiaEstudos de Comportamento; Psicologia Fisiológica, 2007-08-30)
Why are we attracted to some people but not to other ones? How is this attraction established? Which signs are characteristic of a good partner? These and many other questions concerning how mate attraction and mate selection ...
Prenatal LPS exposure reduces olfactory perception in neonatal and adult rats
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
Prenatal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure causes reproductive, behavioral and neurochemical defects in both dams and pups. The present study evaluated male rats prenatally treated with LPS for behavioral and neurological ...
Influence of prenatal pre-exposure to an odor on intake behavior of an aversive solution in newborn rats
(Elsevier Ireland, 2018-04)
Early pre- or postnatal sensory experiences significantly influence flavor preference and food intake, and can induce liking for innately unpalatable flavors. Previous work found that newborn rats stimulated with an odor ...
When allowed, females prefer novel males in the polygynous subterranean rodent Ctenomys talarum (tuco-tuco)
(Elsevier Science, 2013-01)
The ability to recognize familiar conspecifics plays an important role at the time of choosing a mating partner in rodents. A laboratory study using preference test was used in order to test the hypothesis that, in the ...
Effects of starvation on the olfactory responses of the blood-sucking bug Rhodnius prolixus
(Elsevier, 2013-07)
Blood-sucking insects use olfactory cues in a variety of behavioral contexts, including host-seeking and aggregation. In triatomines, which are obligated blood-feeders, it has been shown that the response to CO2, a ...
