Fig. 2: Identification of pyrethrum-responsive sensilla in Ae. aegypti antennae.
From: A dual-target molecular mechanism of pyrethrum repellency against mosquitoes
a A schematic drawing illustrating single sensillum recording (SSR) from Ae. aegypti mosquito antennae. b SSR responses of short sharp-tipped (sst) and short blunt-tipped (sbt) sensilla to pyrethrum (10−2 v v−1) (n = 8 sensilla for sbt-1; n = 7 for sbt-2, sst-1 and sst-2; n = 3 for sbt-3 and sbt-4; n = 2 for sbt-5 and sbt-6; n = 9 for sst-3). c Representative SSR traces indicating increased firing of A neurons of sbt-1 sensilla (n = 8 sensilla) or sst-1 sensilla (n = 7 sensilla) in response to pyrethrum (10−2 v v−1) in Rockefeller mosquitoes. Data are plotted as mean ± s.e.m. and dots denote the value of each repeat.
