Lu, Peng-fei published the artcilePeach volatile emission and attractiveness of different host plant volatiles blends to Cydia molesta in adjacent peach and pear orchards, Quality Control of 111-11-5, the main research area is butyl acetate benzaldehyde monitoring Cydia.
The oriental fruit moth (OFM), Cydia (= Grapholitha) molesta, is a highly damaging pest; peaches are its primary host, and pears serve as post-peach secondary hosts during the late season in China. We collected volatiles from detached peach shoots and fruits, and identified them with gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Antennally active compounds were identified by gas chromatog.-electroantennogram detection (GC-EAD), and these were further tested in the laboratory and field. We detected consistent electroantennog. activity was for ten compounds Significantly more C. molesta females were caught with a mixture of female EAD-active compounds identified from the detached matured peach fruits (nonanal, Bu acetate, 3-methylbutyl acetate, hexyl acetate, (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, linalool and farnesene) than other mixtures mimicking the volatile profile from detached matured fruits or shoots. We identified a new GC-EAD active mixture from intact peach shoots composed of nonanal, (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, (E)-β-ocimene, and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one. In the field test, the background odor of orchards could affect trap catches, and two peach-derived blends together with two previously known pear-derived blends were proven to be able to monitor the seasonal OFM population dispersal in adjacent orchards. These host plant blends will be effective for further designing candidate attractants for season-long C. molesta population dynamic monitoring.
