Identification of pyridine analogs as new predator-derived kairomones. [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
In the wild, animals have developed survival strategies relying on their senses. The individual ability to identify threatening situations is crucial and leads to increase in the overall fitness of the species.

Acidification and γ-aminobutyric acid independently alter kairomone-induced behaviour [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2016
Exposure to high pCO2 or low pH alters sensation and behaviour in many marine animals. We show that crab larvae lose their ability to detect and/or process predator kairomones after exposure to low pH over a time scale relevant to diel pH cycles in ...

Niche Breadth and Olfactory Context Shape Informed Passive Dispersal. [PDF]

Ecol Lett
Experimental evolution reveals that niche breadth modulates informed passive dispersal in phytophagous mites through divergent strategies. While generalists optimise take‐off based on target cue familiarity and signal‐to‐noise ratios, specialists primarily track current host quality to trigger departure.

Kairomones - important substances in interspecific communication in vertebrates: a review [PDF]

Veterinární Medicína, 2013
Interspecies chemical communication is widespread among many groups of organisms, including vertebrates. Kairomones belong to a group of intensively researched substances, represent means for interspecific chemical communication in animals and bring ...

One Kairomone and Multiple Effects in Daphnia Species—5α-Cyprinol Sulfate Induces Morphological Defenses in the Invasive Species Daphnia lumholtzi

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Recently, the first chemical cues, which induce defenses in freshwater zooplankton of the genus Daphnia have been identified. Still it is unknown how general these so-called kairomones are and if they are perceived by and thereby benefitting invasive ...

Higher, Faster, Better: Maternal Effects Shorten Time Lags and Increase Morphological Defenses in Daphnia lumholtzi Offspring Generations

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Prey species can respond to the presence of predators by inducing phenotypic plastic traits which form morphological, life history or behavioral defenses. These so-called inducible defenses have evolved within a cost-benefit framework.

Investigations on the Use of Kairomone and Pheromone Attractants for Control of Thrips Species (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) by Mass-trapping in Nectarine Orchards

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2020
Thrips species (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) cause superficial, brown colored scars and discoloration called silvering on the surface of nectarine fruit which reduce market quality.

Towards an attract-and-reward strategy: evaluating nectar resources and HIPVs under laboratory conditions to enhance Aphelinus mali parasitism activity, a key parasitoid of Eriosoma lanigerum. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Euphorbia segetalis is a promising attractant insectary plant for Aphelinus mali. Meanwhile, Vicia faba and Vicia sativa are a promising nectar resource to sustain the parasitoid in early spring when the population of Eriosoma lanigerum is low, and honeydew is scarce.

Cucurbitacins as kairomones for diabroticite beetles [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1980
The characteristic bitter substances of the Cucurbitaceae act as kairomones for a large group of diabroticite beetles (Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Luperini), promoting host selection and compulsive feeding behavior. These beetles (e.g., Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi ) respond to as little as 1 ng of ...
