Production of Long Chain Fatty Alcohols Found in Bumblebee Pheromones by Yarrowia lipolytica

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Fatty alcohols (FA-OH) are aliphatic unbranched primary alcohols with a chain of four or more carbon atoms. Besides potential industrial applications, fatty alcohols have important biological functions as well. In nature, fatty alcohols are produced as a

Plant‐Derived Extracts Disrupt Biofilm Formation and Quorum Sensing in Yersinia enterocolitica: Insights From GC‐MS and Molecular Docking

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract represents how natural plant products that preferentially target the specific receptors of quorum sensing could be developed to combat biofilms linked to Yersinia enterocolitica using the potent abilities of protein–ligand complexes with high docking scores.

Alarm pheromone processing in the ant brain: an evolutionary perspective

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Social insects exhibit sophisticated communication by means of pheromones, one example of which is the use of alarm pheromones to alert nestmates for colony defense.

Semiochemical responsive olfactory sensory neurons are sexually dimorphic and plastic

eLife, 2020
Understanding how genes and experience work in concert to generate phenotypic variability will provide a better understanding of individuality. Here, we considered this in the main olfactory epithelium, a chemosensory structure with over a thousand ...

Structure elucidation of some insect pheromones : a contribution to the development of selective pest control agents [PDF]

, 1977
The use of pheromones is one of the methods currently being investigated intensively as an alternative method of insect control. The various ways in which pheromones might be used in insect control programmes are briefly discussed in Chapter 1.Chapter 2 ...

Some fluorine-containing pheromone analogues.

, 1986
Two analogues of the aphid alarm pheromone (E)-β-farnesene, a trifluorofarnesene and a difluoro-1-norfarnesene, were found to be highly active and were more readily detectable than the parent compound.

Semi-selective fatty acyl reductases from four heliothine moths influence the specific pheromone composition [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Sex pheromones are essential in moth mate communication. Information on pheromone biosynthetic genes and enzymes is needed to comprehend the mechanisms that contribute to specificity of pheromone signals.

Burrow use by Saharan striped polecat (Poecilictis libyca) in an agricultural area of central Tunisia

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Saharan striped polecats in agricultural landscapes use many burrows (30–35 per season), facilitated by sandy soils. Burrow sharing is rare and mainly occurs between males and females during mating. Habitat use shifts seasonally, reflecting disturbance and soil conditions. Maintaining stable sandy habitats may be critical for persistence.

Can we replace toxicants, achieve biosecurity, and generate market position with semiochemicals?

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
Biosecurity covers both long-term management of existing pests and the urgent government responses to alien invasive species which have yet to become fully established.
