Abstract

Changes in the number of carbon atoms and in the proportion between cis- and trans-isomers of the components of leafroller pheromones were studied. The evolution of pheromone components at the tribe level included the decrease in the number of carbon atoms and the increase in the fraction of trans-isomers. The pattern of changes in the cis- and trans-isomers ratio allows tracing the evolution of species within a single genus.
