The tight synchronization between the life cycle of the obligatory parasitic mite Varroa destructor (Varroa) and its host the honeybee, is mediated by honeybee chemical stimuli. These stimuli are mainly perceived by a pit organ located at the distal part of the mite’s foreleg. In the present study, ...
Aims of the project is the identification of soluble chemosensory proteins in the olfactory organs of the honeybee mite Varroa destructor. Different families of soluble proteins acting as carriers for odorants have been identified in hexapods, while very limited information is available for other te...
These data contain RNA-seq samples generated from the main chemosensory organs of closely related Drosophila species (D. melanogaster, D. sechellia, D. simulans, D. santomea, D. erecta, and D. suzukii) from larava (head) and adults (antenna, forelegs, proboscis with maxillary palps, ovipositors (fem...
