The Sex Pheromone Content of The Spodoptera Exigua (Hubner) Under Artificial and Natural Diets [PDF]
International Journal of Science and Engineering, 2015 The control of the Spodoptera exigua Hubner (Lepidoptera: noctuidae) through sex pheromones is feasible by mass trapping, mating disruption, and population monitoring.

Moth sex pheromone receptors and deceitful parapheromones. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The insect's olfactory system is so selective that male moths, for example, can discriminate female-produced sex pheromones from compounds with minimal structural modifications.

Specificity determinants of the silkworm moth sex pheromone. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The insect olfactory system, particularly the peripheral sensory system for sex pheromone reception in male moths, is highly selective, but specificity determinants at the receptor level are hitherto unknown. Using the Xenopus oocyte recording system, we

Methodology in structural determination and synthesis of insect pheromone [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991 By means of ethereal washing of insect pheromone glands of female moths, GC-MS detection along with microchemical reactions and electroantennogram (EAG) survey, six economically important insect species were targeted for pheromone identification.

Effects of natural and synthetic alarm pheromone and individual pheromone components on foraging behavior of the giant Asian honey bee,Apis dorsata [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2014 AbstractSocial pollinators such as honey bees face attacks from predators not only at the nest, but also during foraging. Pollinating honey bees can therefore release alarm pheromones that deter conspecifics from visiting dangerous inflorescences. However, the effect of alarm pheromone and its chemical components upon bee avoidance of dangerous food ...

The response of grass‐cutting ants to natural and synthetic versions of their alarm pheromone [PDF]
Physiological Entomology, 2001 Summary The responses of the grass‐cutting ants Atta bisphaerica (Forel) and Atta capiguara (Gonçalves) to the main components of their alarm pheromones were examined in simple field bioassays.

The Lutzomyia longipalpis complex: a brief natural history of aggregation-sex pheromone communication [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2016 In this paper we review the natural history of pheromone communication and the current diversity of aggregation-sex pheromones in the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis. This species complex is the main vector of Leishmania infantum, the agent of visceral leishmaniasis in the Americas.

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2023 In order to further understand the calling behavior of Mythimna separata (Walker) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) and explore the olfactory molecular recognition mechanism of male moths to intra- and inter-specific sex pheromones, the male moths collected by ...

Natural Transformation of Oral Streptococci by Use of Synthetic Pheromones [PDF]
, 2016 The discovery that Streptococcus pneumoniae uses a competence-stimulating peptide (CSP) to induce competence for natural transformation, and that other species of the mitis and the anginosus streptococcal groups use a similar system, has expanded the tools to explore gene function and regulatory pathways in streptococci. Two other classes of pheromones

Sulfated Steroids as Natural Ligands of Mouse Pheromone-Sensing Neurons [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience, 2008 Among mice, pheromones and other social odor cues convey information about sex, social status, and identity; however, the molecular nature of these cues is essentially unknown. To identify these cues, we screened chromatographic fractions of female mouse urine for their ability to cause reproducible firing rate increases in the pheromone-detecting ...
