“…As can be seen in figure 3.8 the pedicel present on D. ponderosae morphologically speaking could possess a functional Johnston's organ. It is morphologically comparable to other curculionoid species, which possess a Johnston's organ (Hix et al 2003). Johnston's organs are however limited in their frequency range, capable of detecting frequencies up to 500 Hz (Virant- Doberlet and Cokl.…”

“…In Coleoptera, the Johnston's organ can be found in the whirligig beetle, Gyrinidae where it is used for both visual as well as vibrational cues on the water's surface during intra-and inter-specific interactions (Bendele, 1986). Johnston's organ has also been observed in other members of the family Curculionoidea (Hix et al, 2003).…”

“…In other Stenopelmini, these scales may coat the integument completely or incompletely, e.g., Neohydronomus affinis Hustache, 1926 and Argentinorhynchus breyeri Brèthes, 1910, respectively. In spite of being common in the Stenopelmini, illustrations and information about the functionality of their type of scale in the operation of the plastron have been published by Thorpe & Crisp (1949), based on the study of Eubrychius velutus (Beck, 1817) and Tanysphyrus lemmnae (Fabricius, 1792) and by Hix et al (2003) for Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel, 1952.…”

“…In B. mori , the Gα o subunit was expressed in the nerve bundles of olfactory receptor neurons as in the mouse (Miura et al, 2005). Trichoid sensilla, the most numerous sensilla on the rice water weevil antenna, which densely cover the tip of club segment of the antenna, likely function in gustation and olfaction (Hix et al, 2003). We demonstrated that Lo Gα o was mainly expressed in the dendrites of the trichoid sensilla, olfactory/gustatory sensilla neurons, and therefore speculate that the Lo Gα o protein may be involved in olfaction or gustation.…”

The open reading frame (ORF) encoding a novel G protein α subunit, Lo Gα(o), was cloned from the parthenogenetic rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). The Lo Gα(o) ORF encodes a protein of 354 amino acid residues. The deduced protein sequence shares high homology with Gα(o) from other species. The expression patterns of Lo Gα(o) in various adult tissues were indicated by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot. The results showed that Lo Gα(o) mRNA was expressed at similar levels in tissues except relative high levels in the antennae of adult, and Lo Gα(o) protein of an apparent molecular mass of about 40 kDa was expressed in various tissues of the adult. Immunocytochemical localization showed that Lo Gα(o) was mainly expressed in the dendrites of the trichoid sensilla in the antenna of the weevil. The tissue and cellular localization of Lo Gα(o) suggests that Lo Gα(o) may take a part in signal transduction of olfactory/gustatory.
