  abstract = {{C}hemical communication is ubiquitous. {T}he identification of conserved structural elements in visual and acoustic communication is well established, but comparable information on chemical communication displays ({CCD}s) is lacking. {W}e assessed the phenotypic integration of {CCD}s in a meta-analysis to characterize patterns of covariation in {CCD}s and identified functional or biosynthetically constrained modules. {P}oorly integrated plant {CCD}s (i.e. low covariation between scent compounds) support the notion that plants often utilize one or few key compounds to repel antagonists or to attract pollinators and enemies of herbivores. {A}nimal {CCD}s (mostly insect pheromones) were usually more integrated than those of plants (i.e. stronger covariation), suggesting that animals communicate via fixed proportions among compounds. {B}oth plant and animal {CCD}s were composed of modules, which are groups of strongly covarying compounds. {B}iosynthetic similarity of compounds revealed biosynthetic constraints in the covariation patterns of plant {CCD}s. {W}e provide a novel perspective on chemical communication and a basis for future investigations on structural properties of {CCD}s. {T}his will facilitate identifying modules and biosynthetic constraints that may affect the outcome of selection and thus provide a predictive framework for evolutionary trajectories of {CCD}s in plants and animals.},
