The insecticide pymetrozine selectively affects chordotonal mechanoreceptors.
Pymetrozine is a neuroactive insecticide but its site of action in the nervous system is unknown. Based on previous studies of symptoms in the locust, the feedback loop controlling the femur-tibia joint of the middle leg was chosen to examine possible targets of the insecticide. The femoral chordotonal organ, which monitors joint position and movement, turned out to be the primary site of pymet...

only human. Very recently, a senior research associate in my lab shared his experience of accidentally spilling a hazardous chemical on the floor and the small change he will make to contain such spills more safely in the future. I am grateful that he used his experience to help us all work smarter and safer. These two stories have been about lab mistakes, the last one will be about remembering...
متن کاملCrystal structure of pymetrozine
The title compound, C10H11N5O {systematic name: 6-methyl-4-[(E)-(pyridin-3-yl-methyl-idene)amino]-4,5-di-hydro-1,2,4-triazin-3(2H)-one}, C10H11N5O, is used as an anti-feedant in pest control. The asymmetric unit comprises two independent mol-ecules, A and B, in which the dihedral angles between the pyridinyl and triazinyl ring planes [r.m.s. deviations = 0.0132 and 0.0255 ] are 11.60 (6) and 18...
متن کاملStress selectively affects the reactivated components of a declarative memory.
When long-term memories are reactivated, they can reenter a transient plastic state in which they are vulnerable to interference or physiological manipulations. The present study attempted to directly affect reactivated memories through a stress manipulation, and compared the effects of stress on reactivated and nonreactivated components of a declarative memory in a within-subject design. We pr...
متن کاملSpider mechanoreceptors.
Spiders have highly developed mechanosensory systems, some of which provide access to forms of stimulation alien to our own sensations. Studies of hair-shaped air movement detectors (trichobothria) and tactile sensors have uncovered an outstanding refinement of the processes of stimulus uptake and stimulus transformation, which reflect details of both stimulus physics and behavioral significanc...
