“…Although the method of mechanical damage was not intended to mimic insect feeding damage, it is superficially similar to that caused by adults of the weevil, Ceratapion basicorne, which is oligophagous on C. soltitialis and C. cyanus (Smith, 2007;. Such chewing damage evidently exposes such herbivorous insects to a wider variety and higher concentrations of secondary compounds that are likely to affect acceptance of the plant (Piesik et al, 2011b). Further research should be done to determine if such a specialist herbivore causes different responses from their host plant.…”

“…Synthetic volatiles were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Chemical Co. Inc., Poznań, Poland), purity between 85 and 99%. Cereal compounds were selected based on their presence in cereal grains (Germinara et al 2010;Piesik et al 2011Piesik et al , 2014Delaney et al 2013;Piesik & WendaPiesik 2015). To screen behavioural activity of the pest volatile compounds were tested in six blends at four concentrations (1, 10, 100, 1000 ng/min) compared to the absence of the compound (0).…”

Wenda-Piesik A., Piesik D., Krasińska A. (2018): Response of mated insects of both sexes of granary weevil to blends of volatiles -short communication. Plant Protect. Sci., We report the behavioural responses of mated granary weevils to blends of cereal volatiles. Four doses were applied on filter paper (1, 10, 100, and 1000 ng/min in 50 µl of hexane applied on filter paper). A Y-tube experiment revealed that mated females of Sitophilus granarius were attracted to blend 1, 4, and 5 at concentrations of 1000, 100, 1, and 10 ng/min, respectively. Mated males were attracted only to blend 5 at a concentration of 10 ng/minute. Yet, the mated weevil females and males were repelled by the highest concentration (1000 ng/min) for all tested blends. Moreover, both mated sexes were repelled by 100 ng/min in blends 2, 3, 5, and 6. Additionally, females were repelled by 10 ng/min in blend 6. We claim that the blend of volatiles and their concentration can induce the insect behaviour.

“…The release of root VOCs can mediate various interactions: direct or indirect defense of roots against herbivores (Ali et al 2011;Rasmann et al 2005Rasmann et al , 2012a, plant -plant competition (Ens et al 2009;Jassbi et al 2010;Viles and Reese 1996), resistance of roots against pathogens (Cobb et al 1968;Kalemba et al 2002;Vilela et al 2009), and symbiotic interactions (Asensio et al 2012;Paavolainen et al 1998). Root derived compounds can also attract herbivores (Wenke et al 2010), and their emission tends to decrease in unattacked conditions (Piesik et al 2011b), thus limiting the energy costs incurred by their synthesis (Herms and Mattson 1992;Rasmann et al 2012a, b). Carbon dioxide gradients are an ubiquitous belowground herbivore attractant, but other volatile and non-volatile semiochemicals also are involved in directing herbivores towards roots (Johnson and Nielsen 2012;Reinecke et al 2008;Weissteiner et al 2012).…”

Characterization of Volatile Organic Compounds Emitted by Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Roots and Their Attractiveness to Wireworms

Root volatile organic compounds (VOCs), their chemistry and ecological functions have garnered less attention than aboveground emitted plant VOCs. We report here on the identification of VOCs emitted by barley roots (Hordeum vulgare L.). Twenty nine VOCs were identified from isolated 21-d-old roots. The detection was dependent on the medium used for root cultivation. We identified 24 VOCs from 7-d-old roots when plants were cultivated on sterile Hoagland gelified medium, 33 when grown on sterile vermiculite, and 34 on non-sterile vermiculite. The major VOCs were fatty acid derived compounds, including hexanal, methyl hexanoate, (E)-non-2-en-1-ol, nona-3,6-dien-1-ol, and nona-2,6-dien-1-ol. In an olfactometer assay, wireworms (larvae of Agriotes sordidus Illiger, Coleoptera: Elateridae) were attracted to cues emanating from barley seedlings. We discuss the role of individual root volatiles or a blend of the root volatiles detected here and their interaction with CO 2 for wireworm attraction.
