The social wasp Polybia fastidiosuscula Saussure (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) uses herbivore-induced maize plant volatiles to locate its prey. Social wasps in the Polybia genus are important for use as pest-control agents in agricultural systems. The objective of this study was to investigate the behavioural responses of Polybia fastidiosusc... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2017
Attraction of Telenomus podisi to volatiles induced by Euschistus heros in three different plant species. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2016
Phloem-feeding herbivory on flowering melon plants enhances attraction of parasitoids by shifting floral to defensive volatiles. Emission of herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) can differ according to the type of herbivory and the plant development stage, ultimately affecting recruitment of the natural enemy. Little is kn... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Odour masking of tomato volatiles by coriander volatiles in host plant selection of Bemisia tabaci biotype B. The silverleaf whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), is one of the most important pest insects in tomato crop systems worldwide. It has been previously demonstrated that inter... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2010
Olfactory response of Mahanarva spectabilis (Distant, 1909) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) to volatile aqueous extracts of plant origin applied to elephant grass plants (Pennisetum purpureum Schum). In this study, we evaluate the olfactory responses of Mahanarva spectabilis adults to aqueous extracts from the following non-host plants for the pest insect: garlic (Allium sativum L.), rue (Ruta gra... ...

Attractiveness of host plant volatile extracts to the asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri, is reduced by terpenoids from the non-host cashew. Diaphorina citri is a vector of the bacterial causative agent of Huanglongbing (HLB?=?Citrus greening), a severe disease affecting citrus crops. As there is no known control for HLB, manipulating inse... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Volatile organic compounds from cassava plants confer resistance to the Whitefly Aleurothrixus aepim (Goeldi, 1886). Cassava is an essential tuber crop used to produce food, feed, and beverages. Whitefly pests, including Aleurothrixus aepim (Goeldi, 1886) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), significantly affect cassava-based... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2023
Cashew volatile extracts reduce attractiveness of host plant volatiles to Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae). Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2018
Diazotrophic microorganisms of sugarcane influence the host plant selection of Diatrea saccharalis: metabolomics and volatile organic compounds (VOCS). Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Comparative analysis of the volatile constituents of in vitro and ex vitro plants of Petiveria alliacea L. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2006
