  3. 3. Semiochemical-mediated attraction and oviposition in pyralid moths

    Author : Christian Olsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ekologi; Lepidoptera; behaviour; pest control; Ecology; learning; olfaction;

    Abstract : Moths use chemical signals emanating from food to find sites for oviposition and subsequent larval feeding. By identifying these odours, novel approaches to pest management can be developed, such as monitoring of females in pest populations. READ MORE
