This journal publishes research on chemical ecology, focusing on the role of chemical compounds in mediating interactions between organisms and their environment. Studies investigate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in plants and their influence on insect pests and decomposer communities, as well as chemical cues used in animal communication and reproduction. The research also explores the chemical profiles of insects, including cuticular hydrocarbons and antiaphrodisiacs, and the chemical ecology of symbiotic relationships.
