From sexual attraction to maternal aggression: When pheromones change their behavioural significance
2015, Hormones and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :This leads us again to the interesting issue of whether the same maleness chemosignals are responsible for attraction of females and for promoting attacks on male intruders during the postpartum period. A second interesting question is what causes females to change their behavioural response to male chemosignals, from attraction and mating facilitation to aggression after parturition (in fact a few days before, Mann et al., 1984; Bosch, 2013). In this respect, since olfactory cues (likely derived from pups) are critical for other aspects of maternal behaviour, we wondered whether intimate contact with pups providing full access to these olfactory cues might be a causal factor facilitating this change in behaviour.
