Abstract
Understanding Insect Behaviors and Olfactory Signal Transduction
Highlights
Notion of the PestInsect relies on chemosensory or chemoreceptor organs located on antennae, mouthparts, wings, legs and ovipositors to live
The olfactory receptors are most abundant on the antennae, but may be associated with the mouthparts or external genitalia; while the taste receptors are most abundant on the mouthparts, but may be found on the antennae, tarsi, and genitalia
The mechanism starts by trapping chemical molecules dispersed in the air by special chemoreceptors or olfactory receptors expressed in the cell membranes of olfactory receptor neurons
