据最新一项研究显示,与蜜蜂相似,通过对蛾类进行训练,可以使之对特定的气味作出反应。目前,昆虫学家正将这项昆虫研究转移到军事应用上,试图利用受过训练的蛾类来探测出人造爆炸物、大麻之类的非法、危险物品。像狗一样“条件反射”用蜜蜂和蛾类来排查大规模杀伤性武器,听起来像是科幻小说中的情节,不过进行此项昆虫研究的科学家们已经发明出一种特殊装置,可以有效地对这两种昆虫进行“条件反射”训练。 According to a new study, similar to bees, moths can be trained to respond to specific odors. At present, entomologists are shifting this insect research to military applications and trying to use trained moths to detect illegal and dangerous items such as artificial explosives and marijuana. Dog-like “conditioned reflexes” use bees and moths to investigate weapons of mass destruction, sounding like a science fiction story, but scientists who conducted the insect research have invented a special device that can effectively The “conditional reflex” training was performed on these two insects.
