O-acyltransferase genes involved in the production of volatile sex pheromones in Caenorhabditis elegans

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 2, January 2026. SignificanceAs a step toward identification of the volatile sex pheromones (VSPs) that attract males as well as to understand where and under what conditions they are produced, we sought to identify genes necessary for VSP production. We generated loss-of-…
