Domestic boar

It was most timely that the only known mammalian semiochemicals which fit nicely into the concept of insect pheromones - two steroids present in the saliva of the domestic boar (5a-androst-16-en-3-one and 3a-hydroxy-5a-androst-16-ene) - were isolated by Patterson (1969), just at the time when interest in olfactory communication was rising. [Pg.6]

Domestication can change the olfactory system. In the domestic pig, most olfactory structures in the forebrain are 30% smaller than in wild boar (Kruska and Rohrs, 1974). [Pg.95]

Another reason for the relative lack of interest in mammalian pheromones lies in the fact that - apart from the use in perfumes - only one actual application of mammalian pheromones is known so far. This is not in connection with a pest but with a very useful animal, the domestic pig (5). The saliva and sweat glands of the sexually aroused boar contain two steroids with a musky smell, A16 androstenol and A16-androstenone. These are actual pheromones emitted by the male and eliciting a characteristic behaviour in the female. Sows in heat react to the scent of these compounds by assuming a characteristic copulating stance. [Pg.108]
