The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Scents of self: The expression component of self/non- self recognition systems (2004, background): “dominulus (Dani et al. 2001). Ruther et al. (2002) extracted hydrocarbons from V.”
CHEMICAL COMMUNICATION IN RODENTS: FROM PHEROMONES TO INDIVIDUAL RECOGNITION (2003, unknown): “Examples of such signals are the odors used for individual and kin recognition among mammals (Gorman 1976; Smith et al. 2001) and colony, hive, or kin recognition in insects (Dani et al. 2001; Gamboa et al. 1996; Howard 1993).”
Ecological, behavioral, and biochemical aspects of insect hydrocarbons. (2005, background): “(30) conducted several experiments on the paper wasp Polistes dominulus to test the importance of individual hydrocarbons as nestmate recognition cues.”
Kin recognition in eusocial wasps (2004, unknown): “(1996) reported that two of the three compounds postulated by Espelie et al. (1994) to be prime candidates for recognition pheromones were ranked highly in their discriminant function analysis. However, several other compounds that were ranked highly in the discriminant function analysis were not co”
Chemical recognition of reproductive status in social insects (2006, background): “In Polistes dominulus, the topical application of synthetic linear alkanes on live wasps modifies their CHC profiles (enriched in alkanes) but this has no effect on their acceptance by fellow colony members (Dani et al. 2001).”
