Automatic inspection of pheromone traps

2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2017
Insect infestations threaten yield efficiency in agricultural areas. Since insects massively reproduce, they not only reduce crop yield and quality, but expenditures made for biological pesticides form a huge portion of the total expenses. However, from the long-term perspective, blind chemical pest control on agricultural areas have turned out to be ...

The Active Space of Mexican Rice Borer Pheromone Traps

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2016
The Mexican rice borer, Eoreuma loftini (Dyar) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is an invasive pest of sugarcane, Saccharum spp., rice, Oryza sativa L., and other graminaceous crops in the United States. Traps baited with the synthetic female sex pheromone of E. loftini are used for monitoring and management of this invasive pest.

Field Trapping of Tomato Moth, Tuta absoluta with Pheromone Traps

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2000
Field evaluations demonstrate that the addition of the minor pheromone component (3E,8Z)-tetradecadien-1-yl acetate to the major component (3E,8Z,11Z)-tetradecatrien-1-yl acetate does not significantly increase the trap catches of Tuta absoluta males in the field.

Use of aggregation pheromone traps increases infestation of adult Riptortus pedestris (Hemiptera: Alydidae) in soybean fields.

Pest Management Science, 2018
BACKGROUND An aggregation pheromone trap has been used for both monitoring and mass-capture of Riptortus pedestris (Fabricius) in soybean. As the trap's efficacy in reducing the pest population and crop damage is unknown, we evaluated it in small ...

Trapping of Phyllophaga elenans with a Female-Produced Pheromone

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2003
Attraction of Phyllophaga elenas to vaned bucket traps baited with the recently identified female-produced pheromone, L-isoleucine methyl ester (LIME), is efficient. Pheromone-baited vaned buckets with water to retain insects were more effective than buckets without vanes or plastic containers with the sides cut out. Pheromone-baited vaned bucket traps

A density dependent model of pheromone trapping

Theoretical Population Biology, 1985
A discrete, deterministic model is presented to represent a use of pheromones in insect pest control. Males are assumed to be attracted to traps containing virgin females releasing male-attracting pheromone (or equivalent pheromone preparation); males entering the traps are killed.

Effects of pheromone loading, dispenser age, and trap height on pheromone trap catches of the oriental fruit moth in apple orchards

Phytoparasitica, 2006
The effects of field aging (0–28 days) and pheromone loading rate on the longevity of red rubber septa loaded with the sex pheromone blend of the oriental fruit mothGrapholita molesta (Busck), were evaluated in North Carolina apple orchards in 2002. Separate field tests examined the influence of trap height and pheromone loading rate of rubber septa on

Developing Pheromone Traps and Lures for Maruca vitrata in Taiwan

Gesunde Pflanzen, 2012
The larvae of the legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), cause severe damage on economically important legume crops in the tropics. The female moth produces volatile components to attract males for mating. The so-called sex pheromones are species-specific multi-component blends and are used as lures in crop protection for pest ...
