金龟子化学通讯与信息化学物质

本文综述了金龟子的化学通讯与信息化学物质研究与应用的新进展,重点评述了丽金龟科和鳃金龟科性信息素的鉴定与化学结构。迄今,已有14种金龟子的性信息素被鉴定,还有一些金龟子的聚集信息素和两性引诱剂被报道。对金龟子性信息素、聚集信息素和引诱剂等信息化学物质的应用也作了概述。

Chemical communication and semiochemicals in scarab beetles

The new advances of the research and application of chemical communication and semiochemicals in scarab beetles were summarized in the review, focused on the identification and chemical structure of the sex pheromones of Rutelidae and Melolonthidae. Up to now the sex pheromones of 14 scarab beetles have been identified and several aggregation pheromones and attractants to the both males and females reported. In addiation, the application of the semiochemicals including sex pheromones, aggregation pheromones and attractants etc. for scarab beetles was intruduced in brief.
