“…Plant volatiles not only affect the behavior of herbivorous insects but also attract the natural enemies of herbivorous insects, especially the HIPVs [ 4 ]. The HIPVs released by Tibraca limbativentris Stål (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) and Glyphepomis spinosa Campos et Grazia (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) feeding on rice are attractive to the natural enemy of the rice pest, Telenomus podisi Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) [ 41 ]. Our results showed that trans-nerolidol, cis-3-hexenyl benzoate, and α-farnesene all appeared after being fed on by A. hygrophila .…”

Plants release a variety of volatiles and herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) after being damaged by herbivorous insects, which play multiple roles in the interactions with other plants and insects. Agasicles hygrophila Selman and Vogt (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) is a monophagous natural enemy and an effective biocontrol agent for Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. Here, we reported differences among the volatiles of A. philoxeroides by solid phase microextraction (SPME) using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). We compared the volatile emission of: (1) clean plants (CK); (2) A. philoxeroides plants with mechanical damage treatment (MD); and (3) A. philoxeroides plants infested with A. hygrophila 1st, 2nd, and 3rd larvae and female and male adults. A total of 97 volatiles were recorded, of which 5 occurred consistently in all treatments, while 61 volatiles were only observed in A. philoxeroides infested by A. hygrophila, such as trans-nerolidol, (E)-β-farnesene, and (3E,7E)-4,8,12-trimethyltrideca-1,3,7,11-tetraene (E, E-TMTT), etc. Among the 97 volatile compounds, 37 compounds belong to alkenes, 29 compounds belong to alkanes, and there were 8 esters, 8 alcohols and 6 ketones. Orthogonal partial least squares-discrimination analysis (OPLS-DA) showed that the different treatments were separated from each other, especially insect feeding from CK and MD treatments, and 19 volatiles contributed most to the separation among the treatments, with variable importance for the projection (VIP) values > 1. Our findings indicated that the alligatorweed plants could be induced to release volatiles by different stages of A. hygrophila, and the volatile compounds released differ quantitatively and qualitatively. The results from this study laid an important foundation for using volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and HIPVs of alligatorweed to improve the control effect of A. hygrophila on A. philoxeroides.

“…This focus was given in the work of Togni et al ( 2016 ) who explored the mechanisms involved in the attractiveness of aphidophagous Coccinelids to Coriandrum sativum L. (Apiales: Apieaceae). Also in Brazil, Ulhoa et al ( 2020 ) described that rice plants produce different volatiles in response to damage caused by two species of stink bugs, bringing to the plant protection to conspecific herbivores. However, parasitoids can recognize and respond positively to both stimuli.…”

The history and recent developments of conservation biological control (CBC) in the context of industrialized and small-scale agriculture are discussed from theoretical framework available in the Neotropical region. A historical perspective is presented in terms of the transition of the way pests have been controlled since ancestral times, while some of these techniques persist in some areas cultivated on a small-scale agriculture. The context of industrialized agriculture sets the stage for the transition from chemical pesticides promoted in the green revolution to the more modern concept of IPM and finds in conservation biological an important strategy in relation to more sustainable pest management options meeting new consumer demands for cleaner products and services. However, it also noted that conservation, considered within a more integrative approach, establishes its foundations on an overall increase in floral biodiversity, that is, transversal to both small-scale and industrialized areas. In the latter case, we present examples where industrialized agriculture is implementing valuable efforts in the direction of conservation and new technologies are envisioned within more sustainable plant production systems and organizational commitment having that conservation biological control has become instrumental to environmental management plans. In addition, a metanalysis on the principal organisms associated with conservation efforts is presented. Here, we found that hymenopteran parasitoids resulted in the most studied group, followed by predators, where arachnids constitute a well-represented group, while predatory vertebrates are neglected in terms of reports on CBC. Our final remarks describe new avenues of research needed and highlight the need of cooperation networks to propose research, public outreach, and adoption as strategic to educate costumers and participants on the importance of conservation as main tool in sustainable pest management.

“…Furthermore, rice plants ( Oryza spp.) emit HIPVs and attract T. podisi when subjected to herbivory by two stink bugs, Tibraca limbativentris Stål and Glyphepomis spinosa Campos & Grazia (Melo‐Machado et al, 2014; Ulhoa et al, 2020).…”

Plants respond indirectly to herbivore injury in a species‐specific way and emit a specific blend of volatiles that are attractive to the enemies of herbivores. We evaluated whether maize plants, Zea mays L. (Poaceae), can recognize herbivory damage from a generalist stink bug, Diceraeus melacanthus Dallas (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae). This species is not a common pest in maize, but is currently found on maize crops in Brazil. We aimed to answer the following questions: (1) does D. melacanthus use maize plant volatiles for host location? (2) Do maize plant chemical volatile profiles change due to feeding by D. melacanthus? And (3) do herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) emitted by maize plants play a role in the foraging behaviour of the generalist stink bug egg parasitoid Telenomus podisi Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae)? The results show that females of D. melacanthus do not use constitutive volatiles or HIPVs as host location cues. However, feeding by D. melacanthus activates maize indirect defence, inducing emission of HIPVs and attracting the herbivore's enemy. Thus, strengthening indirect defence of plants can be a strategy to protect crops in the field by recruiting natural enemies through chemical information, as an additional approach to control D. melacanthus within an integrated pest management program.
