Abstract :
[en] Many beetle and ant species owe their protection against predators to the presence of defensive compounds in their hemolymph or in specialized exocrine glands. A growing number of studies devoted to the elucidation of the biosynthetic pathways used by the insects to produce these compounds have been reported in recent years. An over-view of these studies is presented.
