The evolutionary conserved role of a male-specific sex pheromone on courtship inhibition in Drosophila.
Drosophila pheromones in the form of long-chain hydrocarbons expressed on the cuticle for species identification and to facilitate reproduction. One primary aim of this study was to investigate whether expression and function of a male-specific sex pheromone is conserved in various drosophilids. Whi...
