Journal ArticleDOI
Author Correction: Factors Associated with Variation in Cuticular Hydrocarbon Profiles in the Navel Orangeworm, Amyelois transitella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae).
TL;DR: The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake that led to the following statement in the Acknowledgments paragraph: The authors thank the Almond Board of California for research funding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Queen Supergene Pheromone in the Red Imported Fire Ant Using Worker Discrimination Assays.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used high-throughput behavioral assays to study worker acceptance of paper dummies dosed with fractions of extracts of polygyne queens, or blends of synthetic counterparts of queen cuticular compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Aggregation-Sex Pheromone Components for a "Living Fossil", the False Click Beetle, Palaeoxenus dohrni Horn (Coleoptera: Eucnemidae).
TL;DR: The identification of an attractant pheromone should provide a useful tool for bioconservation and ecological studies of this iconic species, Dohrn’s elegant eucnemid beetle.
Journal ArticleDOI
A pleiotropic chemoreceptor facilitates the production and perception of mating pheromones
Cassondra Vernier,Nicole Leitner,Kathleen M. Zelle,Merrin Foltz,Sophia Dutton,Xitong Liang,Sean Halloran,Jocelyn G. Millar,Yehuda Ben-Shahar +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors found that Gr8a independently regulates the behavioral responses of males and females to a putative inhibitory pheromone, as well as its production in the fat body and oenocytes of males.

Chemoreceptor pleiotropy facilitates the functional coupling of the synthesis and perception of mating pheromones
Kathleen M. Zelle,Cassondra Vernier,Nicole Leitner,Xitong Liang,Sean Halloran,Jocelyn G. Millar,Yehuda Ben-Shahar +6 more
TL;DR: In Drosophila melanogaster, sensory perception and synthesis of an inhibitory mating pheromone is regulated by the action of Gr8a, a member of the Gustatory receptor gene family, which provides a relatively simple molecular explanation for how genetic coupling allows for the robust and stable flow of social information at the population level.
