概括
床的气味偏好随着饥饿而变化. 不被养的昆虫更喜欢宿主气味,而被养的昆虫则避免它们,影响害虫管理策略.
科学领域:
- 昆虫学 昆虫学是一门学科.
- 化学生态化学生态学
- 虫害管理 虫害管理 虫害管理
背景情况:
- 床居住在室内环境中,其聚合和宿主气味重叠.
- 以前的研究集中在个体的气味偏好,但这些转变是不清楚的.
- 床的食周期会影响它们在聚集和寻找宿主之间的行为.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究床 (Cimex lectularius) 的气味偏好如何根据他们的饥饿状态而改变.
- 评估不同"气味景观" (聚合和宿主气味的组合) 对床行为的影响.
- 了解二氧化碳在寻找宿主行为中的作用.
主要方法:
- 实验设置有六种不同的气味景观,包含聚合和宿主皮肤气味.
- 在不同的饥饿状态下 (食与未食) 观察床行为反应 (吸引/排斥).
- 对单独的宿主气味,单独的聚合气味以及与二氧化碳和没有二氧化碳的组合的反应的评估.
主要成果:
- 饥饿状态显著调节了床对聚合和宿主气味的偏好.
- 聚集的气味吸引了被养和未养的床.
- 不被养的床被宿主皮肤气味吸引,而被养的床被排斥;二氧化碳增强了未养的虫子对宿主气味的吸引力.
- 养床对吸引和厌恶的气味表现出不同的反应,这表明不同的处理机制.
- 当两者都存在时,未被养的床优先考虑宿主气味而不是聚合气味.
结论:
- 床的气味偏好根据它们的生理状态 (饥饿/腹) 动态切换.
- 主体气味单独或与聚合激素驱逐的养床,表明潜在的陷操纵.
- 不被养的床强烈喜欢宿主气味,无论单独还是与聚合气味相结合.
- 这些发现对于开发用于综合防治床的有效化学诱至关重要,建议仔细考虑诱组合.

Physiology of Smell and Olfactory Pathway
12.3K
Humans detect odors with the help of specialized cells located in the upper part of the nasal cavity, called olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). ORNs possess hair-like structures called cilia, which are receptive to sensations from the inhaled air. When an odorant molecule binds to a specific receptor on the cell of the cilia, it leads to a series of events that ultimately cause the ORN to send electrical signals to the olfactory bulb in the brain through the olfactory nerves.

Olfaction
48.1K
The sense of smell is achieved through the activities of the olfactory system. It starts when an airborne odorant enters the nasal cavity and reaches olfactory epithelium (OE). The OE is protected by a thin layer of mucus, which also serves the purpose of dissolving more complex compounds into simpler chemical odorants. The size of the OE and the density of sensory neurons varies among species; in humans, the OE is only about 9-10 cm2.
