HILDEBRAND Research on insect olfaction is important for at least two reasons. First, the olfactory systems of insects and their arthropod kin are experi mentally favourable models for studies aimed at learning about general principles of olfaction that apply to vertebrates and invertebrates alike. Detailed comparisons between the olfactory pathways in vertebrates and insects have revealed striking similarities of functional organisation, physiol ogy, and development, suggesting that olfactory information is processed through neural mechanisms more similar than different in these evolution arily remote creatures. Second, insect olfaction itself is important because of the economic and medical impact of insects that are agricultural pests and disease vectors, as well as positive impact of beneficial species, such as the bees and moths responsible for pollination and production of honey. The harm or benefit attributable to an insect is a function of what it does - that is, of its behaviour - which is shaped by sensory information. Often olfaction is the key modality for control of basic insect behaviour, such as ori entation and movement toward, and interactions with, pot | | 出版日期 | Book 1999 | | 关键词 | Insekten; Insektizid; Insektizide; Pheromon; Schädlingsbekämpfung; Sinnesphysiologie; development; entomolo | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-07911-9 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-08449-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-07911-9 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1999 |
