Simple Summary Insect pheromones are specific natural compounds that meet modern pest
control requirements, ie, species-specificity, lack of toxicity to mammals, environmentally …

Chemical signals are omnipresent in sexual communication in the vast majority of living
organisms. The traditional paradigm was that their main purpose in sexual behaviour was to …

Aβ1-40, a major component of Alzheimer's disease cerebral amyloid, is present in the
cerebrospinal fluid and remains relatively soluble at high concentrations (less than or equal …

Chemosensory speciation is characterized by the evolution of barriers to genetic exchange
that involve chemosensory systems and chemical signals. Here, we review some …

▪ Abstract Insects of the order Hymenoptera are biologically and economically important
members of natural and agro ecosystems and exhibit diverse biologies, mating systems, and …

Mate finding in most moth species involves long-distance signaling via female-emitted sex
pheromones. There is a great diversity of pheromone structures used throughout the …

Although sexual isolation is one of the most important causes of speciation, its genetic basis
is largely unknown. Here evidence is presented that suggests that sexual isolation between …

Sexually deceptive orchids are predicted to represent a special case of plant speciation
where strong reproductive isolation may be achieved by differences in floral scent.• In this …

A great diversity of pheromone structures are used by moth species (Insecta: Lepidoptera)
for long-distance mating signals. The signal/response channel seems to be narrow for each …

In this work, we explore the potential influence of sensory ecology on speciation, including
but not limited to the concept of sensory drive, which concerns the coevolution of signals and …
