open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003
In many species, older males are often preferred mates because they carry 'good' genes that account for their viability. How females discern a male's age is a matter of question. However, for animals that rely heavily on chemical communication there is some indication that an animal's age can be determined by its scent. To investigate whether there are

De novo synthesis of short-chain aldehydes and hydrocarbons secreted by the brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, mainly secretes 4‐oxo‐(E)‐2‐hexenal, (E)‐2‐decenal, dodecane and tridecane, a mixture representative of that released by many heteropterans. We demonstrated that H. halys can synthesise these secretory components de novo using dietary glucose.
