DOI: 10.1002/arch.21477
Abstract: Lepidopterans are known to have different pheromone-binding proteins with differential expression patterns that facilitate specific signal transduction of semiochemicals. Two PBPs of the Asian gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar, were reported to express in both females… read more here.

Ostrinia furnacalis PBP2 solution NMR structure: Insight into ligand binding and release mechanisms
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Protein Science"
DOI: 10.1002/pro.4438
Abstract: Ostrinia furnacalis is an invasive lepidopteran agricultural pest that relies on olfaction for mating and reproduction. Male moths have an extremely sensitive olfactory system that can detect the sex pheromones emitted by females over a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.6674
Abstract: BACKGROUND Pheromone-based management is a leading non-pesticidal strategy among integrated pest management options. Improving the potency of pheromone products by adding synergists would be a practical way to popularize pheromone-based management as well as to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.6813
Abstract: BACKGROUND Insect pheromone synergists have been widely used to produce potent pheromone products for environment-friendly pest control. Codlemone (Cod) and (Z)-8-dodecenol (Dod) are two major Grapholita molesta pheromone synergists, with Cod having greater synergism and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ps.7571
Abstract: BACKGROUND Mating and oviposition are essential and closely coordinated events in the reproduction of moths. Although tyramine, a biogenic amine, can affect insect reproduction by binding its receptors, the specific regulatory mechanism has not yet… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00049-020-00319-z
Abstract: Females of two click beetle species, Cardiophorus tenebrosus and C. edwardsi (Coleoptera: Elateridae), produce methyl (3R,6E)-2,3-dihydrofarnesoate as their sex pheromone. We had serendipitously discovered that males of both species were also strongly attracted to (R)-fuscumol… read more here.
