Neurotransmission from peripheral sympathetic nerves to smooth muscle is involved in the regulation of several important physiological processes, It has conventionally been held that noradrenaline (NA) is the only sympathetic neurotransmitter, Much recent evidence indicates, howe...

parasitism by a rust fungus is the 'blind' spore germ tube sensing the surface topography of the plant to feel its way to the stomatal opening for entry into the host. The parasite forms specialized infection structures for delivery c effector proteins into the host cells. Each o...

Environmental-flow (e-flow) assessment is still at a rudimentary level in India. Among such assessment studies that have been undertaken for the Ganga River Basin, a large fraction is based on the use of simple, less robust methods where ecology has not received due attention. Ow...

Autodetection is an olfactory behavioural process where the females of some species respond to their own pheromonal blends. Through electroantennogram studies it has been proved that the gravid females of Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) respond to their pheromone blend consisting o...

Olfactory cue dependence of insects such as mosquitoes is beneficial in understanding insect behaviour during host seeking. Understanding of the host-seeking behaviour, particularly, the olfactory process involved in it at molecular level is likely to provide new means of control...
