Changes in odor background affect the locomotory response to pheromone in moths. by Virginie Party, Christophe Hanot, Daniela Schmidt Büsser, Didier Rochat, Michel Renou

“…We found that the addition of certain volatile plant compounds disturbed the orientation toward the sex pheromone. The effect on locomotion was correlated with the capacity of the plant compound to antagonize pheromone detection by olfactory receptor neurons, suggesting a masking effect of the background over the pheromone signal. …”

Competition-based model of pheromone component ratio detection in the moth. by Andrei Zavada, Christopher L Buckley, Dominique Martinez, Jean-Pierre Rospars, Thomas Nowotny

“…For some moth species, especially those closely interrelated and sympatric, recognizing a specific pheromone component concentration ratio is essential for males to successfully locate conspecific females. …”

Male and Female Tortricid Moth Response to Non-Pheromonal Semiochemicals by Ajay P. Giri, Brent D. Short, Jaime C. Piñero

“…In eastern North America, apple orchards are often attacked by several species of tortricid moths (Lepidoptera), including <i>Cydia pomonella</i>, <i>Grapholita molesta</i>, <i>Argyrotaenia velutinana</i>, and <i>Pandemis limitata</i>. Sex pheromones are routinely used to monitor male moth populations. …”

Adult Influence on Juvenile Phenotypes by Stage-Specific Pheromone Production by Michael S. Werner, Marc H. Claaßen, Tess Renahan, Mohannad Dardiry, Ralf J. Sommer

“…High-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry of secreted metabolites combined with genetic mutants traced this result to the production of stage-specific pheromones. In particular, the P. pacificus-specific di-ascaroside#1 that induces the predatory morph is induced in the last juvenile stage and young adults, even though mouth forms are no longer plastic in adults. …”

Evolution of the codling moth pheromone via an ancient gene duplication by Jean-Marc Lassance, Bao-Jian Ding, Christer Löfstedt

“…Biosynthesis of the codling moth sex pheromone, (E8,E10)-dodecadienol (codlemone), involves two consecutive desaturation steps, the first of which is unusual in that it generates an E9 unsaturation. …”

Plant metabolism of nematode pheromones mediates plant-nematode interactions by Murli Manohar, Francisco Tenjo-Castano, Shiyan Chen, Ying K. Zhang, Anshu Kumari, Valerie M. Williamson, Xiaohong Wang, Daniel F. Klessig, Frank C. Schroeder

“…Here the authors show that an ascaroside pheromone secreted by plant-parasitic nematodes is converted by host plant peroxisomal β-oxidation into shorter side-chained ascarosides that repel nematodes.…”
