Effects of Molasses Grass, Melinis minutiflora Volatiles on the Foraging Behavior of the Cereal Stemborer Parasitoid, Cotesia sesamiae

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2003
Olfactory responses of the cereal stemborer parasitoid Cotesia sesamiae to volatiles emitted by gramineous host and nonhost plants of the stemborers were studied in a Y-tube olfactometer. The host plants were maize (Zea mays) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), while the nonhost plant was molasses grass (Melinis minutiflora). In single-choice tests, females
