Odorant Receptors Mediating Benzaldehyde Detection in Mythimna separata: Functional Identification and Ligand Selectivity

Benzaldehyde (BA) is a ubiquitous aromatic volatile produced by both plants and insects. In Mythimna separata, it also serves as a male-emitted pheromonal signal that mediates male–male competition by antagonizing the pheromone receptor MsepPR3 and disrupting the perception of th...
