Robbins P, Alm S, Armstrong C, Averill A, Baker T, Bauernfiend R, et al.
J Insect Sci . 2009 Jun; 6:1-124. PMID: 19537965
The sex pheromone of the scarab beetle, Phyllophaga anxia, is a blend of the methyl esters of two amino acids, L-valine and L-isoleucine. A field trapping study was conducted, deploying...

Lee S, Vickers N, Baker T
Chem Senses . 2006 Sep; 31(9):821-34. PMID: 16984959
We used single-sensillum recordings to characterize male Heliothis subflexa antennal olfactory receptor neuron physiology in response to compounds related to their sex pheromone. The recordings were then followed by cobalt...

Vickers N
Brain Behav Evol . 2006 May; 68(2):90-108. PMID: 16707862
Pheromone-responsive olfactory interneurons were studied to determine the extent to which their physiological and morphological properties complemented the behavior and peripheral olfactory neurobiology observed in hybrid male moths created by...

Vickers N
Brain Behav Evol . 2006 May; 68(2):63-74. PMID: 16707860
Shifts in male preference for qualitatively different pheromone blends appear to have played a fundamental role in the divergence of olfactory communication and evolution of moth species. As an initial...

Vickers N
Chem Senses . 2005 Dec; 31(2):155-66. PMID: 16339269
Terrestrial odor plumes have a physical structure that results from turbulence in the fluid environment. The rapidity of insect flight maneuvers within a plume indicates that their responses are dictated...

Vickers N, Poole K, Linn Jr C
J Comp Neurol . 2005 Aug; 491(2):141-56. PMID: 16127689
The antennal imaginal disc was transplanted between premetamorphic male larvae of two different Lepidopteran moth species. Following adult eclosion, electrophysiological recordings were made from 33 central olfactory neurons in the...

Vickers N, Poole K, Linn Jr C
J Comp Neurol . 2003 Oct; 466(3):377-88. PMID: 14556295
The antennal imaginal disc was transplanted between male larvae of two different heliothine moth species, Heliothis virescens (HV) and Helicoverpa zea (HZ). Males of these species respond to distinct pheromone...

Vickers N, Christensen T
Chem Senses . 2003 May; 28(4):325-38. PMID: 12771019
In different moth species, the number and spatial arrangement of olfactory glomeruli in the antennal lobe (AL) vary widely, but the spatial map within a species is thought to be...

Vickers N
J Chem Ecol . 2002 Aug; 28(6):1255-67. PMID: 12184401
Heliothis subflexa males were flown in a wind tunnel to a variety of combinations of synthetic pheromone components admixed (on a filter paper disk. Blends containing (Z)-l1-hexadecenal (Z11-16:Ald, 1000 ng),...
