Sex pheromone production and perception in European corn borer moths is determined by both autosomal and sex-linked genes.
- W. Roelofs, T. Glover, +6 authors B. Bengtsson
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 1 November 1987
Inheritance patterns for sex pheromone production in females, pheromone detection on male antennal olfactory receptor cells, and male pheromone behavioral responses were studied in pheromonally… Expand
Orchid pollination by sexual swindle
- F. Schiestl, M. Ayasse, +4 authors W. Francke
- Biology
- Nature
- 3 June 1999
The flowers of Ophrys orchids mimic receptive females of usually only one pollinator species. Males of this species are attracted primarily by the odour of a flower and transfer the pollinia during… Expand
Moth Pheromone Genetics and Evolution
- C. Löfstedt
- Biology
- 29 May 1993
Sex pheromone communication in moths is a well investigated case of mate-finding by chemical signals, but the evolutionary causes of the great complexity and diversity of these signals are still not… Expand
Functional specialization of olfactory glomeruli in a moth.
- B. Hansson, H. Ljungberg, E. Hallberg, C. Löfstedt
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 29 May 1992
The specific function of the glomerular structures present in the antennal lobes or olfactory bulbs of organisms ranging from insects to humans has been obscure because of limitations in neuronal… Expand
The Male Sex Pheromone of the Butterfly Bicyclus anynana: Towards an Evolutionary Analysis
- C. Nieberding, H. de Vos, +7 authors P. Brakefield
- Biology, Medicine
- PloS one
- 23 July 2008
Background Female sex pheromones attracting mating partners over long distances are a major determinant of reproductive isolation and speciation in Lepidoptera. Males can also produce sex pheromones… Expand
EVOLUTION OF REPRODUCTIVE STRATEGIES IN THE SEXUALLY DECEPTIVE ORCHID OPHRYS SPHEGODES: HOW DOES FLOWER-SPECIFIC VARIATION OF ODOR SIGNALS INFLUENCE REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS?
- M. Ayasse, F. Schiestl, +4 authors W. Francke
- Biology, Medicine
- Evolution; international journal of organic…
- 1 December 2000
Abstract The orchid Ophrys sphegodes Miller is pollinated by sexually excited males of the solitary bee Andrena nigroaenea, which are lured to the flowers by visual cues and volatile semiochemicals.… Expand
A Massive Expansion of Effector Genes Underlies Gall-Formation in the Wheat Pest Mayetiola destructor
- C. Zhao, Lucio Navarro Escalante, +66 authors S. Richards
- Biology, Medicine
- Current Biology
- 2 March 2015
Gall-forming arthropods are highly specialized herbivores that, in combination with their hosts, produce extended phenotypes with unique morphologies [1]. Many are economically important, and others… Expand
Molecular phylogeny of the subfamilies in Geometridae (Geometroidea: Lepidoptera).
- D. Abraham, N. Ryrholm, H. Wittzell, J. Holloway, M. Scoble, C. Löfstedt
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 July 2001
Molecular sequence data from three gene fragments were used to examine critically a provisional phylogenetic classification based on morphological characters of the Geometridae, one of the most… Expand
Allelic variation in a fatty-acyl reductase gene causes divergence in moth sex pheromones
- Jean-Marc Lassance, A. Groot, +6 authors C. Löfstedt
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 22 July 2010
Pheromone-based behaviours are crucial in animals from insects to mammals, and reproductive isolation is often based on pheromone differences. However, the genetic mechanisms by which pheromone… Expand
Sex pheromone mimicry in the early spider orchid (Ophrys sphegodes): patterns of hydrocarbons as the key mechanism for pollination by sexual deception
- F. Schiestl, M. Ayasse, +4 authors W. Francke
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Comparative Physiology A
- 1 June 2000
Abstract We investigated the female-produced sex pheromone of the solitary bee Andrena nigroaenea and compared it with floral scent of the sexually deceptive orchid Ophrys sphegodes which is… Expand
