High individual variation in pheromone production by tree-killing bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae).

Die Naturwissenschaften - 1 Jan 2008

Pureswaran Deepa S, Sullivan Brian T, Ayres Matthew P

Abstract excerpt

Aggregation via pheromone signalling is essential for tree-killing bark beetles to overcome tree defenses and reproduce within hosts. Pheromone production is a trait that is linked to fitness, so high individual variation is paradoxical. One explanation is that the technique of measuring static p...
