Pheromone Autodetection: Evidence and Implications
Insects, 2016 Olfactory communication research with insects utilizing sex pheromones has focused on the effects of pheromones on signal receivers. Early pheromone detection studies using the silkworm moth, Bombyx mori L., and Saturniids led to the assumption that ...

Functional Studies of Sex Pheromone Receptors in Asian Corn Borer Ostrinia furnacalis
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Lepidopteran insects use sex pheromones for sexual communication. Pheromone receptors expressed on peripheral olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) are critical part to detect the sex pheromones. In genus Ostrinia, several pheromone receptors were functional

Functional specificity of sex pheromone receptors in the cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Male moths can accurately perceive the sex pheromone emitted from conspecific females by their highly accurate and specific olfactory sensory system. Pheromone receptors are of special importance in moth pheromone reception because of their central role ...

Field capture of Thyanta perditor with pheromone-baited traps
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2011 The objective of this work was to evaluate the field attractiveness of Thyanta perditor synthetic sex pheromone-baited traps, its attractivity to other stink bug species, and the response of T. perditor to a geometric isomer of the sex pheromone.

Thermal signatures of human pheromones in sexual and reproductive behaviour [PDF]
, 2010 Chemically mediated sexual communication in humans has been largely neglected due to its non-conscious and relatively concealed nature. However, menstrual cycle synchronisation, puberty onset in young pre-pubertal girls exposed to their stepfather, and ...

Female-induced increase of host-plant volatiles enhance specific attraction of aphid male Dysaphis plantaginea (Homoptera: Aphididae) to the sex pheromone [PDF]
, 2009 All aphid species studied so far share the same sex pheromone components, nepetalactol and nepetalactone. Variation by different enantiomers and blends of the two components released by different aphid species are limited and can only partially explain ...
