2008 journal article
Identification of cuticular lipids eliciting interspecific courtship in the German cockroach, Blattella germanica
NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN, 95(5), 403–412.
Contributors: D. Eliyahu n, S. Nojima n, S. Capracotta n, D. Comins n & C. Schal n
author keywords: Blatta orientalis; contact pheromone; methyl ketone; 11-methylheptacosan-2-one; 27-oxo-11-methylheptacosan-2-one
MeSH headings : Animals; Blattellidae / physiology; Female; Germany; Male; Pheromones / physiology; Reproduction; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology
TL;DR:
It is proposed that several characteristics of their mating system—chiefly, absence of closely related species in the anthropogenic environment, resulting in relaxation of selection on sexual communication, and a highly male-biased operational sex ratio—have driven males to respond with extremely low thresholds to a wide spectrum of related compounds.

2008 journal article
Seed odor mediates an obligate ant-plant mutualism in Amazonian rainforests
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 105(12), 4571–4575.
MeSH headings : Animal Structures / drug effects; Animals; Ants / drug effects; Ants / physiology; Behavior, Animal / drug effects; Chromatography, Gas; Odorants; Peru; Plant Extracts / chemistry; Plant Extracts / pharmacology; Plants / drug effects; Plants / parasitology; Rain; Seeds / chemistry; Seeds / drug effects; Smell / drug effects; Symbiosis / drug effects; Tropical Climate
TL;DR:
It is shown that workers of theAG ant Camponotus femoratus are attracted to odorants emanating from seeds of the AG plant Peperomia macrostachya, and that chemical cues also elicit seed-carrying behavior, and the chemical basis of this important and enigmatic interaction is illuminated.

Cuticular hydrocarbons as queen adoption cues in the invasive Argentine ant
JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL BIOLOGY, 211(8), 1249–1256.
Contributors: G. Vasquez n, C. Schal n & J. Silverman n
author keywords: Argentine ant; Linepithema humile; nestmate recognition; cuticular hydrocarbons; intraspecific aggression; non-nestmate queen adoption
MeSH headings : Aggression; Animals; Ants / physiology; Biological Assay; Cues; Discriminant Analysis; Female; Hydrocarbons / metabolism; Integumentary System; Male; Social Behavior
TL;DR:
An association between non-nestmate queen adoption and similarity of the CHC profiles of adopted and host colony queens is found, which provides further evidence for the complex and dynamic nature of L. humile nestmate discrimination, which may in part underlie the success of introduced populations of this invasive ant.

author keywords: Aphis gossypii; Neozygites fresenii; biological control; epizootics
TL;DR:
Arthropod natural enemies were most abundant after epizootics and may have suppressed aphid populations late in the season, and Seed cotton yield, and lint quality were not affected by aphicide applications in any year of the study.

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY, 34(2), 229–237.
Contributors: D. Eliyahu n, S. Nojima n, K. Mori & C. Schal n
author keywords: 27-Oxo-3; 11-dimethylheptacosan-2-one; 27-Hydroxy-3; 11-dimethylheptacosan-2-one; sex pheromone; Blattella germanica; german cockroach; methyl ketone; alcohol; aldehyde

Identification and characterization of cuticular hydrocarbons from a rapid species radiation of hawaiian swordtailed crickets (Gryllidae : Trigonidiinae : Laupala)
JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY, 34(2), 198–204.
Contributors: S. Mullen*, J. Millar *, C. Schal n & K. Shaw*
author keywords: chemical communication; speciation; mate recognition; pheromones; Laupala
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Evolution; Female; Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry; Gryllidae / metabolism; Hawaii; Hydrocarbons / analysis; Lipids / chemistry; Male

author keywords: Linepithema humile; eradication; invasive species; pest management
MeSH headings : Agriculture / economics; Agriculture / methods; Animals; Ants / physiology; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Insect Control / methods; Insecticides
