Male sex pheromone in the parasitoid wasp Nasonia longicornis: chemical and behavioral analyses
By Kurtanovic A, Hofferberth J and Ruther J (2022). Front. Ecol. Evol. 10:1076398. doi: 10.3389/fevo.2022.1076398
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 1 as published. The chemical structures of (4R,5S)- and (4R,5R)-5-hydroxy-4-decanolide were incorrect. The corrected Figure 1 and its caption appear below.
Figure 1
Figure 1. (A) Structures of the components of the male abdominal sex pheromones in the genus Nasonia, (4R,5S)-5-hydroxy-4-decanolide (RS), (4R,5R)-5-hydroxy-4-decanolide (RR), and 4-methylquinazoline (MQ). (B–D) Scheme summarizing the female responses of the hitherto investigated species N. vitripennis (Niehuis et al., 2013, Ruther et al., 2014), N. giraulti (Niehuis et al., 2013, Ruther et al., 2014), and N. longicornis (this study) to the male sex pheromone components and combinations thereof. Pheromone composition of the different species is indicated by colored dots near the species names. The upper panels show the response of 2-d-old virgin females excised from the hosts, the lower panels refer to females collected at the moment of emergence from the host (for more details see text).
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
