Abstract
Chemical signaling is crucial during the insect lifespan, significantly affecting their survival, reproduction, and ecological interactions. Unfortunately, most chemical signals insects use are impossible for humans to perceive directly. Hence, mass spectrometry has become a vital tool by offering vital insight into the underlying chemical and biochemical processes in various variety of insect activities, such as communication, mate recognition, mating behavior, and adaptation (defense/attack mechanisms), among others. Here, we review different mass spectrometry-based strategies used to gain a deeper understanding of the chemicals involved in shaping the complex behaviors among insects and mass spectrometry-based research in insects that have direct impact in global economic activities.
期刊介绍：
The aim of the journal Mass Spectrometry Reviews is to publish well-written reviews in selected topics in the various sub-fields of mass spectrometry as a means to summarize the research that has been performed in that area, to focus attention of other researchers, to critically review the published material, and to stimulate further research in that area.
The scope of the published reviews include, but are not limited to topics, such as theoretical treatments, instrumental design, ionization methods, analyzers, detectors, application to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of various compounds or elements, basic ion chemistry and structure studies, ion energetic studies, and studies on biomolecules, polymers, etc.
