Cuticular hydrocarbon reception by sensory neurons in basiconic sensilla of the Japanese carpenter ant
To maintain the eusociality of a colony, ants recognize subtle differences in colony-specific sets of cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). The CHCs are received by female-specific antennal basiconic sensilla and processed in specific brain regions. However, it is controversial whether a peripheral or cent...
