Pheromone discrimination by the pheromone-binding protein of Bombyx mori [PDF]
, 2006 SummaryPheromone-binding proteins are postulated to contribute to the exquisite specificity of the insect's olfactory system, acting as a filter by preferentially binding only one of the components of the natural pheromone.

Semiochemicals containing lepidopteran sex pheromones: Wonderland for a natural product chemist
Journal of Pesticide Science, 2020 Since the first identification of bombykol, sex pheromones of about 700 moth species have been elucidated. Additionally, field evaluations of synthetic pheromones and their related compounds have revealed the male attraction of another 1,300 species. These pheromones and attractants are listed on the web-sites, "Pheromone Database, Part I." Pheromone ...
