Simple Summary Canine reproductive behavior can be easily observed; however, the
mechanism of semiochemical signaling in this species is still not well understood. Despite …

The evolutionary origins of sexual preferences for chemical signals remain poorly
understood, due, in part, to scant information on the molecules involved. In the current study …

Simple Summary Many canid species are declining globally. It is important to conserve
these species that often serve as important predators within ecosystems. Continued human …

Sexual communication in mate choice scenarios involves nonmutually exclusive functions:
species recognition, mate location and mate assessment. Most studies on sexual …

Chemical signals serve a vast array of functions for both intra-and interspecific
communication and defence. Chemically defended, aposematic insects will advertise their …
