System of forest insect pheromone communication: stability of «information» molecules to environmental factors [PDF]
Сибирский лесной журнал, 2016 Features of external environmental factors (such as electromagnetic radiation in certain spectral bands) influencing pheromone molecules, which are carriers of information for forest insects in the search of the opposite sex, were examined.

PHEROMONES and EXOCRINE GLANDS IN ISOPTERA
, 2010 Termites are eusocial insects that have a peculiar and intriguing system of communication using pheromones. The termite pheromones are composed of a blend of chemical substances and they coordinate different social interactions or activities, including ...

The use of semiochemical slow-release devices in integrated pest management strategies [PDF]
Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2011 The development of integrated pest management (IPM) strategies is increasing since many problems appeared with the use of synthetic pesticides. Semiochemicals – informative molecules used in insect-insect or plant-insect interaction – are more and more ...

Pheromones can cull an invasive amphibian without releasing survivors from intraspecific competition
Ecosphere, 2019 Attempts to cull an invasive species often create a paradoxical situation, whereby the consequent reduction in invader densities frees the survivors from intraspecific competition—and hence, increases the viability of those survivors.
