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. …”

Pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide family in insects: a review by Xiaoyi Dou, Russell Jurenka

“…Their classification is based on physiological function and the primary amino acid sequence. The pyrokinin (PK)/pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptides (PBAN) are one of the largest neuropeptide families in insects, with a conserved C-terminal domain of FXPRLamide. …”

Ant trail pheromone biosynthesis is triggered by a neuropeptide hormone. by Man-Yeon Choi, Robert K Vander Meer

“…However, endocrine regulation of pheromone biosynthesis has progressed slowly due to the complexity of direct and/or indirect hormonal activation of the biosynthetic cascades resulting in insect pheromones. …”

Sensory neurons that respond to sex and aggregation pheromones in the nymphal cockroach by Kosuke Tateishi, Yukihiro Nishimura, Masayuki Sakuma, Fumio Yokohari, Hidehiro Watanabe

“…Abstract In the common pest cockroach, Periplaneta americana, behavioural responses to the sex and aggregation pheromones change in an age-dependent manner. Nymphs are attracted by the aggregation pheromone periplanolide-E (PLD-E) but not by the sex pheromone periplanone-B (PB) in faeces. …”

Aphid alarm pheromone as a cue for ants to locate aphid partners. by François J Verheggen, Lise Diez, Ludovic Sablon, Christophe Fischer, Stefan Bartram, Eric Haubruge, Claire Detrain

“…While aphid predators and parasitoids actively forage for oviposition sites by using aphid semiochemicals, scouts of aphid-tending ant species would also benefit from locating honeydew resources by orienting toward aphid pheromone sources. The present study aims to provide additional information on the use of Aphis fabae alarm pheromone, i.e. …”
