Pheromones in the Communication of Sexual Status in Primates

Pheromones in the Communication of Sexual Status in Primates Anosmic male rhesus monkeys showed no interest in females receiving oestrogen until their olfaction was restored, when they pressed a lever 250 times to gain access to the females. These findings indicate the communication of information about the females' endocrine state by means of a pheromone. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Springer Journals
