A nonspecific defensive compound evolves into a competition avoidance cue and a female sex pheromone
The evolution of chemical communication and the origin of pheromones are among the most challenging issues in chemical ecology. Current theory predicts that chemical communication can arise from compounds primarily evolved for non-communicative purposes but experimental evidence showing a gradual ev...
