昆虫抑性欲素研究进展

Research advances on insect sexual pheromone anti-aphrodisiac

抑性欲素(anti-aphrodisiac)是雄性昆虫在交配过程中留给雌性的气味物质,该物质可以降低交配过的雌性对其它同种雄性的吸引力。本文综述了有抑性欲素研究报道的昆虫种类、抑性欲素对蝶类性行为的影响以及赤眼蜂对昆虫抑性欲素利用情况的研究进展。

Anti-aphrodisiac is a kind of sexual pheromone of insects,which evolved in males to enhance their post-mating success by reducing the attractiveness of females to conspecific mates.Here,we provide a comprehensive overview about the insect species with research on their anti-aphrodisiac,the influences of anti-aphrodisiac on sexual cooperation/conflict about butterflies,and the exploitation and learning ability of egg parasitoids Trichogramma on Pieris.
