Sex Pheromones and Their Impact on Pest Management
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2010The idea of using species-specific behavior-modifying chemicals for the management of noxious insects in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, stored products, and for insect vectors of diseases has been a driving ambition through five decades of pheromone research.

Although plant pheromones have been much less studied than animal pheromones, they are involved in a wide variety of processes in the life cycle of many plants, particularly in sexual reproduction. In this review, the current knowledge concerning sex pheromones in plants is described with emphasis on their structures and functions.

Endeavour, 1977
Abstract It is well established that male moths are attracted to the females by physiologically highly active substances (pheromones) secreted by the latter. Research has revealed the chemical nature of many of these pheromones and much attention has been directed to putting them to practical use, with other methods, for the field control of pests.

Sex Pheromone and Trail Pheromone of the Sand Termite Psammotermes hybostoma
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2011Within the complex network of chemical signals used by termites, trail pheromones and sex pheromones are among the best known. Numerous recent papers map the chemical identity and glandular origin of these pheromones in nearly all major isopteran taxa. In this study, we aimed to describe the sex pheromone and the trail pheromone of a poorly known sand ...

Nomenclature of american cockroach sex pheromones
Tetrahedron Letters, 1990Abstract The American cockroach, Periplaneta americana, produces a multicomponent mixture as its sex pheromone. The publications of its identification by various groups have confused the nomenclature of the various compounds. Novel names are proposed for some of them: periplanone-A (IV-A), isoperiplanone-A (III-D), periplanone-C (V) and periplanone-D

Sex Pheromone in the Lobster, Homarus americanus
Nature, 1971SEXUAL recognition and attraction in many insects have been shown to involve chemical communicants called pheromones1, and these results are widely applied in agriculture2. In contrast very little is known about (sex) pheromones in crustaceans, the only experimental verification being that of Ryan3 who observed that males of the Pacific crab, Portunus ...

Sex Pheromone Mimics of the American Cockroach
Nature, 1971DURING an investigation of several essential oil preparations for juvenile hormone activity1, we discovered that a volatile component(s) in several coniferyl needle distillates stimulated apparent sexual excitement in male American cockroaches, Periplaneta americana (L.).

Evolution of Moth Sex Pheromone Desaturases
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009Moth sex pheromone communication has evolved to use complex blends of relatively simple long‐chain fatty acid precursors. Species specificity is derived from the unique stereochemistry of double bonds introduced into exact locations along the hydrocarbon backbone of fatty acids, which are reduced and then undergo a variety of chain‐shortening and ...
