ABSTRACT
Silkworm (Bombyx mori), an insect herbivore, is attracted to cis-jasmone released from mulberry leaves. Its olfactory receptor, BmOr56, specifically responds to cis-jasmone. In this study, we constructed a BmOr56 deletion line and found that the attractive behavior of cis-jasmone was completely lost in the mutant, suggesting the involvement of a single receptor in this specific chemoattractive behavior.
