Abstract
Sex pheromone of insects were studied profoundly in half past a century, especially in Lepidoptera. Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) was a serious pest in the world, we provide a comprehensive overview about sex pheromones of H. armigera in this paper, mainly focusing on the methods of pheromone extraction and identification, biosynthesis, regulation, reorganization and the role of each components. Future research prospects are also discussed.
