Biosynthesis of the major sex pheromone components of the obliquebanded leafroller, (Z)- and (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetates, is shown to proceed by Δ11 desaturation of myristate as in the related redbanded leafroller. A comparison between the amounts of deuterium label incorporated into the pheromone components from labelled myristic, palmitic and stearic acids gave a higher level of incorporation for the shorter chain acids, suggesting that Δ11 desaturation is a faster process than 2 carbon chain-shortening by β-oxidation.
