Differential Effects of Ephemeral and Stable Predator Chemical Cues on Spider Antipredator Behaviour
Narimanov N, Heuschele J, Entling M, Menzel F, Mestre L
J Chem Ecol
. 2024 Sep;
50(11):714-724.
PMID: 39305439
Semiochemicals left by predators in their foraging area can be utilised by prey to avoid predation. The range of predators' chemical cues with contrasting degradation rates might provide information of...

Proc Biol Sci
. 2024 Aug;
291(2029):20240439.
PMID: 39192762
A fundamental question of ecology is why species coexist in the same habitat. Coexistence can be enabled through niche differentiation, mediated by trait differentiation. Here, behaviour constitutes an often-overlooked set...

J Labelled Comp Radiopharm
. 2023 Dec;
67(2):40-58.
PMID: 38155110
One of the key strategies for radiochemical research facilities is the automation of synthesis processes. Unnecessary manual operations increase the radiation exposure of personnel, while simultaneously threatening the reliability of...

Baumgart L, Schaa E, Menzel F, Joel A
Acta Biomater
. 2022 Sep;
153:355-363.
PMID: 36167237
Most spiders rely on specialized capture threads to subdue prey. Cribellate spiders use capture threads, whose adhesion is based on thousands of nanofibers instead of specialized glue. The nanofibers adhere...

Baumgart L, Wittke M, Morsbach S, Abou B, Menzel F
J Exp Biol
. 2022 Jul;
225(16).
PMID: 35775442
Maintaining water balance is vital for terrestrial organisms. Insects protect themselves against desiccation via cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). CHC layers are complex mixtures of solid and liquid hydrocarbons, with a surprisingly...

J Exp Biol
. 2022 Feb;
225(5).
PMID: 35129200
Insects represent the main prey of spiders, and spiders and insects co-diversified in evolutionary history. One of the main features characterizing spiders is their web as a trap to capture...

Sprenger P, Gerbes L, Sahm J, Menzel F
Curr Zool
. 2021 Oct;
67(5):531-540.
PMID: 34616951
Insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) serve as communication signals and protect against desiccation. They form complex blends of up to 150 different compounds. Due to differences in molecular packing, CHC classes...

R Soc Open Sci
. 2021 May;
8(5):202118.
PMID: 34017599
Social insects are hosts of diverse parasites, but the influence of these parasites on phenotypic host traits is not yet well understood. Here, we tracked the survival of tapeworm-infected ant...

PMID: 33729492
Insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are highly diverse and have multiple functions, including communication and waterproofing. CHC profiles form species-specific, complex blends of up to 150 compounds. Especially in ants, even...
