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

Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) are small water-soluble proteins mainly associated with
olfaction, facilitating the transport of odorant molecules to their relevant receptors in the …

General odorant-binding proteins (GOBPs) are long considered responsible for the
perception of plant odorants. In this study with the important noctuid pest Spodoptera litura …

different host plants around the worldwide. The molecular mechanisms of two general …

Usually, the recognition of sex pheromone signals is restricted to adult moths. Here, our
behavioral assay showed that fourth-instar Spodoptera litura larvae are attracted to cabbage …
