    Notes: Abstract Electrophysiological responses to stimulation with behaviorally relevant compounds were recorded from receptor neurons within specialized classes of sensilla on the antennae of male cabbage looper moths. Receptor neurons were found that specifically respond to stimulation with Z-7,12:AC, Z-7,14:AC, Z-9,14:AC, and Z-7,12:OH. Specialized receptor neurons were not found for the three remaining pheromone blend components, 12:AC, Z-5,12:AC, or 11,12:AC. However, a new class of sensillum containing a pair of neurons insensitive to all of the cabbage looper pheromone components was encountered. In addition, spatial patterns of distribution along the flagellum for identified classes of sensilla are described. Sensilla containing Z-7,12:AC-sensitive neurons are preferentially located on the proximal half of the antennal flagellum. In addition to this distribution along the length of the antenna, a pattern across individual flagellar subsegments is described. Sensilla containing neurons sensitive to Z-9,14:AC were found exclusively on the lateral margins of individual flagellar subsegments.

    Notes: Abstract A consistent pattern of relationships emerges from comparisons of insect electroantennograms, peripheral olfactory receptor neuron responses, and behavioral responses to quantified concentrations of odorants. One consistency is that all of the different response measurements can be described by stimulus-response curves of the same form. Another is that the responses have characteristic groupings when they are plotted against odorant concentration. The pattern of relationships is exemplified in the responses ofTrichoplusia ni (Hübner),Heliothis zea (Boddie), andPlodia interpunctella (Hübner) to several pheromone components and analogs. To quantify the relevant stimulus parameters for the response comparisons, the emission rates of the stimulus delivery system were calibrated for several 12 to 17-carbon pheromone components. The stimulus-response relationships determined forT. ni, H. zea, andP. interpunctella are combined with relationships reported for other insects in the literature, and applications are discussed for the interpretation of pheromone trapping and laboratory bioassays.

    Notes: Rat adrenal cortex was processed for high resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM) to confirm tubular cristae, reported by transmission electron microscopy to be present in cortex mitochondria. Mitochondria in several other tissue and cell types were also observed and their ultrastructure confirmed by using three-dimensional, stereo, high resolution scanning electron microscopy. The mitochondria in rat and human hepatocytes as well as human skin fibroblasts mitochondria proved to be long, up to 46 micrometers and branching, as compared to those in liver which were spherical in shape. Cold adapted brown fat cells were packed with mitochondria, these containing plate or shelf-like cristae. Branched, rat striated muscle mitochondria were observed to curve around contractile protein filament bundles. The muscle mitochondrial cristae were found to be both tubular and plate-like, within the same mitochondrion. The ratio of tubular cristae to plate-like cristae varied considerably between muscle mitochondria. In order to use ultrastructural changes in mitochondria for differential diagnosis, and because 3D reconstruction of mitochondria based on transmission electron microscopy serial sections is severely limited in resolution, it is imperative to first develop a correct understanding of tissue specific, normal mitochondrial ultrastructure based on three-dimensional, HRSEM methods. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
