Journal ArticleDOI

10-Methyldodecanal, a Novel Attractant Pheromone Produced by Males of the South American Cerambycid Beetle Eburodacrys vittata.

TL;DR: The identification, synthesis, and field bioassay of a novel attractant pheromone produced by males of Eburodacrys vittata (Blanchard), a South American cerambycid beetle in the subfamily Ceram bycinae, is reported, which is the first phersomone identified for a species in the tribe Eburiini.
Journal ArticleDOI

(9Z)-9,13-Tetradecadien-11-ynal, the sex pheromone of the avocado seed moth, Stenoma catenifer

TL;DR: The highly unsaturated aldehyde (9Z)-9,13-tetradecadien-11-ynal and corresponding alcohol were identified as possible sex pheromone components of the avocado seed moth, Stenoma catenifer as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex pheromone components of the buck moth Hemileuca maia.

TL;DR: The sex attractant pheromone blend of Hemileuca maia from the vicinity of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, has been identified and several other compounds were tentatively identified, but addition of these components, either alone or in combination, at biologically relevant rates, did not significantly increase the attractiveness of lures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of the stereoisomers of the female sex pheromone of the Hessian fly,Mayetiola destructor.

TL;DR: The female-produced sex pheromone of the Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), has been identified as (10E)-tridecen-2-yl acetate, and Trace amounts of the 10Z isomer of the phersomone have also been detected in extracts of female HessianFly ovipositors.
Journal ArticleDOI

13-Tetradecenyl acetate, a female-produced sex pheromone component of the economically important click beetle Melanotus communis (Gyllenhal) (Coleoptera: Elateridae).

TL;DR: The results indicated that a single female-produced chemical, 13-tetradecenyl acetate, was strongly attractive to conspecific male beetles, and did not appear to attract other species.
