IT is very difficult to define the mechanism by which olfactory receptors on male moth antennae perceive a sex attractant chemical because of the various unsubstantiated olfaction theories, and also because of conflicting reports of the ability of chemicals, structurally different from natural sex attractants, to either inhibit1–5 or mimic6–9 ...

As a consequence of the diversity of Lepidoptera, including 150,000 described species, interesting species-specific sex pheromone systems are exhibited in this insect group. The quite varied pheromones, which have been identified from female moths of nearly 530 species from around the world, are classified into groups of Type I (75%), Type II (15 ...

A Male Sex Pheromone in a Scorpionfly
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2007It has been postulated that males of a number of scorpionfly species produce sex pheromones. This is based on the observation that females often respond only to conspecific males when they evert their genital pouch, the proposed site of pheromone release.

Sex Pheromone of Anastrepha striata
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2015The guava fruit fly, Anastrepha striata, is a pest of several cultivated species of Myrtaceae in the American tropics and subtropics. During calling, A. striata males release numerous volatiles. This study was conducted to identify which of the male volatiles function as the A. striata sex pheromone and to investigate the effects of age and time of day

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
