Sex attractant for the banana moth, Opogona sacchari Bojer (Lepidoptera: Tineidae): provisional identification and field evaluation.
BACKGROUND The banana moth, Opogona sacchari Bojer, is a polyphagous agricultural pest in many tropical areas of the world. The identification of an attractant for male O. sacchari could offer new methods for detection, study and control. RESULTS A compound extracted from female O. sacchari elicited responses from antennae of male moths. This compound was identified as a 2/3,(Z)13-octadecadie...
متن کاملDisruption Effect of the Synthetic Sex Pheromone and its Analogues on Diamondback Moth
Five mg and 50 mg of sex pheromone (Z-11-16:Ald, Z-11-16:Ac and Z-11-16:OH), 5 mg and 10 mg of Z-9-14:Ac and 1 mg and 10 mg of Z-11-16:OH were tested to show the disruption effect on diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.), in a field. When the distance between the sticky trap and tested chemical was zero or 2.8 m, the chemicals did not show the disruption effect. However, when the distance ...
متن کاملMoth Sex Pheromone Receptors and Deceitful Parapheromones
The insect's olfactory system is so selective that male moths, for example, can discriminate female-produced sex pheromones from compounds with minimal structural modifications. Yet, there is an exception for this "lock-and-key" tight selectivity. Formate analogs can be used as replacement for less chemically stable, long-chain aldehyde pheromones, because male moths respond physiologically and...
متن کاملIntegration of Zoophthora radicans and synthetic female sex pheromone for the control of diamondback moth
The widespread fungal pathogen Zoophthora radicans kills both adult and larval stages of the diamondback moth. At IACR-Rothamsted, a novel strategy for diamondback moth control, based upon a fast entry/ slow exit trap containing the female sex pheromone and the pathogen, is under development. Male moths are attracted into an inoculation chamber where they are showered with infective conidia of ...
متن کاملMorphological and Biological Evidence for the Presence of a Male Sex Pheromone of the Diamondback Moth
In the present study, besides morphological evidence, two bioassays, antenna-excision and hairpencil-excision, were used to demonstrate the presence of a male sex pheromone of the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella L. Although the antenna-excision bioassay demonstrated that a male aphrodiasic pheromone exists in the diamondback moth, it was proven to be not as important as the female sex pher...
