Contact-Chemosensory Evolution Underlying Reproductive Isolation in Drosophila Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020
The main theme of the review is how changes in pheromone biochemistry and the sensory circuits underlying pheromone detection contribute to mate choice and reproductive isolation.

Dose–response modelling uncovers compound‐specific inhibitory effects of host defence volatiles on mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host defence volatiles inhibit mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts in a compound‐ and enantiomer‐specific manner, with distinct dose–response profiles that reveal the multitarget chemical defences of beetle–fungi symbiotes. Abstract BACKGROUND The mountain pine beetle relies on symbiotic fungi to overcome host tree defences, yet these fungi must ...

Take flight: predation risk induces wing polyphenism and dispersal in the aphid Myzus persicae

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Predator risk above a critical density induces winged morphs in Myzus persicae, promoting dispersal and reducing predation compared with wingless aphids. This density‐dependent phenotypic plasticity enhances survival but may compromise biological control by facilitating aphid dispersal.

Pheromones and reproduction in reptiles [PDF]

open access: yes
Pheromones are chemicals involved in intraspecific communication in many animals. Reptiles probably rely more on their chemical senses than any other vertebrate class and behavioral studies suggest that chemical cues (sex pheromones) are important in ...

Semiochemical and Communication Ecology of the Emerald Ash Borer, Agrilus planipennis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2019
Knowledge of buprestid chemical ecology is sparse but the appearance of the invasive pest Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire in North America has provided the impetus to study in detail the semiochemistry and ecology of this important buprestid.

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

Pheromones in the integrated management of Arecaceae-defoliating pests. A review

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement
Introduction. The cultivation of Arecaceae is subject to infestation by defoliating insects, which requires efficient monitoring methods. Semiochemicals, mainly sex pheromones, are now widely employed.

Assessing pest control treatments from phenology models and field data

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1851-1859, April 2025.
Theoretical effect of two larvicide sprays, two delayed larvicide sprays that follow an oil treatment, mating disruption, and mating disruption plus four virus sprays on codling moth larva (brown for treated versus pink for untreated) and adult (dark green for treated versus light green for untreated) phenology.

The role of pheromones in freshwater fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The study of fish pheromones is particularly relevant because of the conserved nature of chemoreception in vertebrates. However, most fish pheromone systems remain unstudied.
