Alternative suppression of transcription from two desaturase genes is the key for species-specific sex pheromone biosynthesis in two Ostrinia moths

Crossing of two Ostrinia moths that use different positional isomers as sex pheromone components revealed that species-specific pheromone is produced through alternative suppression of two pheromone gland-specific desaturases at the gene transcription level. The sex pheromone of Ostrinia scapulalis...
