PLANT VOLATILE ELICITING FACS IN LEPIDOPTERAN CATERPILLARS, FRUIT FLIES AND CRICKETS: A CONVERGENT EVOLUTION OR PHYLOGENETIC INHERITANCE?

Plant volatile eliciting FACs in lepidopteran caterpillars, fruit flies and crickets: a convergent evolution or phylogenetic inheritance?

Fatty acid amino acid conjugates (FACs), first identified in lepidopteran caterpillar spit as elicitors of plant volatile emission, also have been reported as major components in gut tracts of Drosophila melanogaster and cricket Teleogryllus taiwanemma.The profile of FAC analogs in these two insects was similar to that of tobacco hornworm Manduca s

Knowledge Source Rankings for Semi-Supervised Topic Modeling

Recent work suggests knowledge sources can be added into the topic modeling process to label topics and improve topic discovery.The knowledge sources typically consist of a collection of human-constructed articles, each describing a topic (article-topic) for an entire domain.However, these semisupervised topic models assume a corpus to Graduation T
