Amphibians like water, but do they also notice volatile compounds in the air? Yes, they do. Macrolides, such as phoracantholide J (see picture; upper right structure) or the newly discovered natural product gephyromantolide A (left structure), are used for communication by mantelline frogs from Madagascar.
两栖动物喜欢水,但是他们也注意到空气中的挥发性化合物吗?是的,他们有。大环内酯类化合物,例如磷酰胺J(见图;右上图结构)或新发现的天然产物gephyromantolide A(左图结构),被马达加斯加的曼陀罗蛙用来交流。
