Differences in Induced Volatile Emissions among Rice Varieties Result in Differential Attraction and Parasitism of Nilaparvata lugens Eggs by the Parasitoid Anagrus nilaparvatae in the Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We compared the volatiles of JA-treated plants of six rice varieties and then determined, in the laboratory and field, if they differed in attractiveness to Anagrus nilaparavate Pand et Wang, an egg parasitoid of rice planthoppers.

Upwind responses of Anopheles stephensi to carbon dioxide and L-lactic acid: an olfactometer study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Excretion of carbon dioxide and L-lactic acid through exhalation and perspiration provides olfactory signals to mosquitoes which allow them to find and bite humans; however, mosquito species differ in this regard. This study investigated upwind responses

Strong Attraction of the Parasitoid Cotesia marginiventris Towards Minor Volatile Compounds of Maize [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plants infested with herbivorous arthropods emit complex blends of volatile compounds, which are used by several natural enemies as foraging cues. Despite detailed knowledge on the composition and amount of the emitted volatiles in many plant-herbivore ...
