Global citrus production was reported to be 56 million tons in 2018; citrus consumption per capita has increased significantly (United States Department of Agriculture, 2019). Increased production and ...

They measured the antennae’s responses to three floral scents—called ocimene, geraniol and nonanal—that are common in flowers and attract pollinators. “The heat significantly impaired the ...

The aroma materials to present herbal note in mango flavor were chosen as follows: β-pinene, diphenyl oxide, myrcene, and ocimene. β-Pinene is a colorless mobile liquid with a pine-like, ...

Snapdragon is a model plant to explore the regulatory mechanism of floral volatile biosynthesis, and ocimene and myrcene are the main terpenoid components. Inspired by our previous finding that blue ...

Chemical spectra were recorded at 70 eV in the electron impact (EI) ionization mode. Some chemicals, such as α-pinene, β-ocimene, nonanal, and α-farnesene, were identified by comparing the retention ...

The scent produced by the butterfly, H. melpomene, is a pheromone called ocimene. Pheromones are natural chemicals that organisms secrete for social communication. Scientists are just beginning to ...

Studying butterflies of the Heliconius Melponene species, they found that males produced a pheromone named ocimene to deter others from approaching their mates. Curiously, this same chemical is used ...

What’s particularly striking about the chemical that produces this post-coital stink – identified some years ago as a compound called beta-ocimene – is that it occurs in flowering plants as ...
