Selectivity and efficiency: evaluation of synthetic Grapholita molesta sexual pheromones

Plant Protection Science
The effectiveness of pheromone lures for Grapholita molesta (Busck 1916) from Propher (Czech Republic) and Pherobank (Netherlands), the attractiveness of green and transparent pheromone traps and the representation of non-target species were evaluated in

Refuge by day, forage by night: Diel activity of vine weevil as characterised by smart monitoring

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Vine weevil activity was monitored using a Smart trap, which recorded diel refuge‐seeking behaviour. Increasing light intensity triggered refuge seeking behaviour, while lower light intensity induced forage seeking activity. Understanding vine weevil diel activity can enhance early detection, which can improve the effectiveness of integrated pest ...

Sex pheromone and visual trap interactions in mate location strategies and aggregation by host-alternating aphids in the field

, 1996
Field observations were made on the responses of males and gynoparae of three host-alternating aphid species, the blackberry-cereal aphid, Sitobion fragariae (Walker), the bird cherry-oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi (L.) and the damson-hop aphid, Phouodon ...

THE USE OF PHEROMONE TRAPS IN TRAINING FIELD PRACTICE

CONCEPTUAL AND APPLIED ASPECTS OF INVERTEBRATE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND BIOLOGICAL EDUCATION, 2020
In field practice on invertebrate zoology and other subjects, in addition to the traditional methods of collecting insects, we can use pheromone traps. Traps were applied in studying the dynamics of xylophilous insects: a sawyer beetle and two bark beetles (an eight-dentated bark beetle and a six-dentated bark beetle).

The impact of artificial light at night on moths (Lepidoptera, Heterocera): A review of the literature and future research directions

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Artificial Light At Night (ALAN) is an emerging environmental issue with significant impacts on nocturnal insects, particularly nocturnal Lepidoptera. We conducted a systematic review addressing the effects of ALAN on insects, with a focus on nocturnal Lepidoptera.

Are pheromone traps applicable to forecast an insect pest phenology? A case study on codling moth

Journal of Crop Protection, 2015
Applying a precise forecasting method is necessary to achieve acceptable results in IPM programs. Performances of the wing and delta pheromone traps for forecasting the codling moth phenology were compared with physiological time data based on Degree ...

Using a Generic Blend of Pheromones to Simultaneously Attract a Diversity of Elaterid Beetle Species Native to Eastern North America

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We assessed attraction of eight elaterid species to a “generic” pheromone blend containing their eight known pheromones or sex attractants. All eight species were attracted by their specific attractants, as expected. Six species were attracted to the blend, but the remaining two species were strongly inhibited by unknown blend components.
