New Plant Protection, EarlyView.The sex pheromone components of Argyrogramma agnata (Staudinger) were identified as Z7‐12:Ac and Z9‐12:Ac. Field trials demonstrated that two components in an 8:3 ratio at a dose of 1100 μg and equipped with box traps could achieve the best capture efficiency. These results provide valuable guidance for the integrated pest management of A.

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.Entomopathogenic nematode‐infected cadavers trigger plants to release volatile organic compounds that deter herbivores, attract parasitic wasps, and boost defense responses, highlighting their potential for sustainable pest management. Abstract Grasping the dynamics between plants and herbivores, as well as the defenses triggered by insects, may hold ...
