Perception of aphid infested tomato plant volatiles by the predator Episyrphus balteatus
In a tritrophic interaction including tomato plant (Lycopersicon esculentum Miller), the herbivore Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and the predator Episyrphus balteatus (De Geer), the perception of the tomato plants produced volatile organic compounds (VOC) by Episyrphus balteatus is investigated.
