is a major herbivore insect in the fruit orchards of China that has become a devastating invasive pest in North America and Europe since its accidental introductions in the 1990s and 2000s, respectively. Like other hemipteran insects, releases defensive chemicals against natural enemies, including ()-2-decenal, which is an aldehyde associated with alarm pheromones. In this study, a series of electrophysiological and behavioral tests were conducted to characterize the alarm functions of ()-2-decenal among adults and nymphs. An antennal transcriptome was obtained from a Chinese population, and 44 odorant-binding protein () genes were annotated. Among them, five putative alarm pheromone-binding pr... More
