The composition of cuticular hydrocarbons of the Tribolium destructor

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1989
Abstract 1. 1. The hydrocarbons from the Tribolium destructor consist of n -alkanes, 3-methylalkanes, internally branched alkanes (4-, 5-, 11- 12- and 13-methylalkanes), dimethylalkanes, pentadecen-1 and C 14 –C 17 alkadienes. 2. 2. The pentadecen-1 and alkadienes occur most probably in defense secretion as in the case of other species ...

The pheromonal role of cuticular hydrocarbons in Drosophila melanogaster

BioEssays, 1997
AbstractPheromones play a curcial role in mate stimulation and discrimination. In the fruit fly Drosophila, the most abundant cuticular hydrocarbons act as sex pheromones during courtship behavior. There are several active molecules and they compose a sex‐ and species‐specific pheromonal bouquet.

Identification of the cuticular hydrocarbons of the horn fly and assays for attraction

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1981
Horn fly cuticular paraffin and monoolefin hydrocarbons were chemically identified and assayed for biological activity as attractants. The majority of the paraffins were odd-numbered, straight-chain molecules 21-29 carbons in length; much smaller amounts of even-numbered, straightchain molecules 22-28 carbons in length and methyl-branched compounds ...

Cuticular Hydrocarbons: Their Evolution and Roles in Drosophila Pheromonal Communication

Behavior Genetics, 2005
I review the recent literature on cuticular hydrocarbons (CHs) in Drosophila. First, the major structural features of CHs are examined in a variety of species with regard to phylogeny. The genetic bases of the CH variation between and within species have been investigated with some of the genes involved characterized and manipulated.
