Surface movement in water of splendipherin, the aquatic male sex pheromone of the tree frog Litoria splendida

Surface movement in water of splendipherin, the aquatic male sex pheromone of the tree frog Litoria splendida

The aquatic sex pheromone splendipherin (GLVSSIGKALGGLLADVVKSKGQPA-OH) of the male green tree frog Litoria splendida movesacross the surface of water to reach the female. Surface pressure and X-ray reflectometry measurements confirm that splendipherin is a surface-active molecule, and are consistent...
