متن کاملCoding and interaction of sex pheromone and plant volatile signals in the antennal lobe of the codling moth Cydia pomonella.
In the codling moth Cydia pomonella (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) plant volatiles attract males and females by upwind flight and synergise the male response to the female-produced sex pheromone, indicating a close relationship between the perception of social and environmental olfactory signals. We have studied the anatomical and functional organisation of the antennal lobe (AL), the primary olfac...
متن کاملIntraspecific Variation in Female Sex Pheromone of the Codling Moth Cydia pomonella
The codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae), is a major pest of apple, pear and walnut orchards worldwide. This pest is often controlled using the biologically friendly control method known as pheromone-based mating disruption. Mating disruption likely exerts selection on the sexual communication system of codling moth, as male and female moths will persist in their attempt ...
متن کاملParasitism of Cyd 1 a Spp . ( Lepidoptera : Tortricidae ) on Sophora Chrysophylla ( Fabaceae ) along an Elevation Gradient of Dry Subalpine Forest on Mauna Kea , Hawaii
-The biology and ecological importance of Hawaiian endemic Cydia spp. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) are poorly known. Cydia larvae arc an important food to palila, an endangered Hawaiian bird that inhabits Sophora woodlands on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. We quantified Cydia larval abundance in seeds of Sophora chrY~'ophylla Salisbury (Fabaceae) and larval mortality caused by parasitism. Four new host plant...
متن کاملGenotyping-by-sequencing approach indicates geographic distance as the main factor affecting genetic structure and gene flow in Brazilian populations of Grapholita molesta (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae)
The oriental fruit moth Grapholita molesta is one of the major pests of stone and pome fruit species in Brazil. Here, we applied 1226 SNPs obtained by genotyping-by-sequencing to test whether host species associations or other factors such as geographic distance structured populations of this pest. Populations from the main areas of occurrence of G. molesta were sampled principally from peach a...
