Functional Analysis of Pheromone Biosynthesis Activating Neuropeptide Receptor Isoforms in <i>Maruca vitrata</i>

Insect sex pheromones are volatile chemicals that induce mating behavior between conspecific individuals. In moths, sex pheromone biosynthesis is initiated when pheromone biosynthesis-activating neuropeptide (PBAN) synthesized in the suboesophageal ganglion binds to its receptor on the epithelial ce...
