Species-specific effects of herbivory on the oviposition behavior of the moth Manduca sextaCarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, University of Arizona, 1040 E Fourth St, Gould Simpson 611, Tucson, AZ 85721 0077, USA
J Chem Ecol 39:76-89. 2013..We propose that the observed differential effects of herbivory on oviposition choice are due to different characteristics (i.e., mutually beneficial or parasitic) of the insect-plant interaction...
The distribution and abundance of triatomine insects, potential vectors of Chagas Disease, in a metropolitan area in southern Arizona, United StatesCarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, University of Arizona, Tucson, 85721 0077, USA
J Med Entomol 49:1254-61. 2012..To our knowledge, this study is the first comprehensive multi-year analysis of triatomine distribution and abundance in the U.S., providing data that allow inferences about risks to human health...
Feeding and defecation behavior of Triatoma rubida (Uhler, 1894) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) under laboratory conditions, and its potential role as a vector of Chagas disease in Arizona, USACarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, College of Science, University of Arizona, Tucson, 85721 0077, USA
Am J Trop Med Hyg 85:648-56. 2011..e., while likely on or near the host. These results indicate that T. rubida potentially could transmit T. cruzi to humans...
Local interneuron diversity in the primary olfactory center of the moth Manduca sextaCarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, University of Arizona, Tucson, 85721, USA
J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol 197:653-65. 2011..These results show that, as observed in other insects, LNs are diverse, which likely determines the complexity of the inhibitory network that regulates AL output...
Antagonistic effects of floral scent in an insect-plant interactionCarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, College of Science, University of Arizona, 1040 East Fourth Street, Tucson, AZ 85721 0077, USA
Proc Biol Sci 277:2371-9. 2010....
Infection of kissing bugs with Trypanosoma cruzi, Tucson, Arizona, USACarolina E Reisenman
Department of Neuroscience, College of Science, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721 0077, USA
Emerg Infect Dis 16:400-5. 2010..Although many factors may contribute to the lack of reported cases in Arizona, these results indicate that the risk for infection in this region may be higher than previously thought...
Neuroethology of oviposition behavior in the moth Manduca sextaCarolina E Reisenman
Division of Neurobiology, Arizona Research Laboratories, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721 0077, USA
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1170:462-7. 2009..Here we describe results from chemical-ecological, neurophysiological, and behavioral experiments aimed at understanding the neural mechanisms that control oviposition behavior in M. sexta...
Inhibitory interactions among olfactory glomeruli do not necessarily reflect spatial proximityCarolina E Reisenman
Arizona Research Laboratories, Division of Neurobiology, University of Arizona, PO Box 210077, Tucson, AZ 85721 0077, USA
J Neurophysiol 100:554-64. 2008..Similar results were obtained in female PNs recorded in proximity to female-specific glomeruli. Our findings indicate that inhibitory interactions among glomeruli are widespread and independent of their spatial proximity...
Chemosensory selectivity of output neurons innervating an identified, sexually isomorphic olfactory glomerulusCarolina E Reisenman
Division of Neurobiology, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721 0077, USA
J Neurosci 25:8017-26. 2005....
Spectral sensitivity of the photonegative reaction of the blood-sucking bug Triatoma infestans (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)Carolina E Reisenman
Laboratorio de Fisiologia de Insectos, Departamento de Biodiversidad y Biologia Experimental, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina
J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol 192:39-44. 2006..These findings indicate that the visual system of T. infestans is sensitive to broader regions of the spectrum than those previously reported...
Enantioselectivity of projection neurons innervating identified olfactory glomeruliCarolina E Reisenman
Arizona Research Laboratories, Division of Neurobiology, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721 0077, USA
J Neurosci 24:2602-11. 2004....
