Journal ArticleDOI

Purification, Identification, Concentration and Bioactivity of (Z)-7-Dodecen-1-yl Acetate: Sex Pheromone of the Female Asian Elephant, Elephas maximus

TL;DR: The remarkable convergent evolution of this compound suggests that compounds identified in mammalian exudates that are also present in pheromone blends of insects should be re-evaluated as potential mammalian chemosignals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of the Aggregation Pheromone of the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Halyomorpha halys) through the Creation of Stereoisomeric Libraries of 1‑Bisabolen-3-ols

TL;DR: A novel and straightforward route to all stereoisomers of 1,10-bisaboladien-3-ol and 10,11-epoxy-1-bisabolen- 3-ol via the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric addition of trimethylaluminum to diastereomeric mixtures of cyclohex-2-enones 1 and 2 is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a new blend of apple volatiles attractive to the apple maggot: Rhagoletis pomonella

TL;DR: A five-component blend of volatiles from apples as the key attractants for the apple maggot fly, Rhagoletis pomonella (Walsh) as mentioned in this paper was used to identify a new blend.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gut bacteria mediate aggregation in the German cockroach

TL;DR: The results indicate that the commensal gut microbiota contributes to production of VCAs that act as fecal aggregation agents and that cockroaches discriminate among the complex odors that emanate from a diverse microbial community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of host fruit volatiles from hawthorn (Crataegus spp.) attractive to hawthorn-origin Rhagoletis pomonella flies

TL;DR: In this paper, solid phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography coupled with electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) were used to identify volatile compounds from hawthorn fruit (Crataegus spp.) acting as behavioral attractants for rhagoletis pomonella flies.
