“…However, the flight patterns, duration, and distance have been recorded for C. sinensis. Zhang et al (2016) reported that adult C. sinensis could fly for up to 30 s consecutively, traveling an average distance of 14 m. However, the majority of their marked and released males were caught at 5 m from the release point. In this paper, we looked at the flight capacity of male and female C. cramerella adults when artificially disturbed during the day, mimicking natural disturbance events.…”

“…A flight mill is another useful tool to measure the mobility of moths. It was used to demonstrate that the flight distance, flight duration, and speed of 150–200 Gy-irradiated and untreated males of the litchi stem-end borer were not significantly different [132], which is a result that was confirmed in field release–recapture experiments.…”

Over the past 30 years, the sterile insect technique (SIT) has become a regular component of area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) programs against several major agricultural pests and vectors of severe diseases. The SIT-based programs have been especially successful against dipteran pests. However, the SIT applicability for controlling lepidopteran pests has been challenging, mainly due to their high resistance to the ionizing radiation that is used to induce sterility. Nevertheless, the results of extensive research and currently operating SIT programs show that most problems with the implementation of SIT against pest Lepidoptera have been successfully resolved. Here, we summarize the cytogenetic peculiarities of Lepidoptera that should be considered in the development and application of SIT for a particular pest species. We also discuss the high resistance of Lepidoptera to ionizing radiation, and present the principle of derived technology based on inherited sterility (IS). Furthermore, we present successful SIT/IS applications against five major lepidopteran pests, and summarize the results of research on the quality control of reared and released insects, which is of great importance for their field performance. In the light of new research findings, we also discuss options for the development of genetic sexing strains, which is a challenge to further improve the applicability of SIT/IS against selected lepidopteran pests.

“…The attraction of adult CPB insects to ELCar and ELCoff extracts was due to the presence of chemical compounds in the form of attractive secondary metabolites. Chemical properties are important in the olfaction of insects, which will affect the interaction of plants and insects [12]. Carrot and coffee leaf extracts contain phenolic compounds with a single aromatic ring known as phenolic acids.…”

“…The differences in CPB responses at various concentrations of ELCar and ELCoff show that even though the two plants contain the same kairomone or chlorogenic acid compounds, the response of CPB pests to the two extracts is different depending on the concentration. The proportion of chemical compounds in a plant can affect the interaction of plants and insects [12]. Figure 2 shows that the 15% concentration of carrot extract attracted more CPB pests than the 5% and 10% concentrations, while the coffee extract attracted the most CPB pests at a 10% concentration compared to the 5% and 15% concentrations.…”

In Southeast Asian countries, the cocoa pod borer (Conopomorpha cramerella) is a significant pest that can cause damage to cocoa production. A potential method for controlling this pest is to use kairomone attractants made from plant extracts. This study aimed to determine the attractiveness of Carrot Leaf Extract (ElCar) and Coffee Leaf Extract (ElCoff) to C. cramerella. Approximately one hectare of cocoa plants was used in the experiment, and observations were made with a three-day interval for two months. The findings demonstrated that the use of plant extracts as kairomone attractants was effective for attracting adult females. No adult male populations were captured during the period of observation. 116 female adults were captured in ElCar, 25 at 5% concentration, 27 at 10% concentration, and 64 at 15% concentration. 100 adult females were captured in ElCoff: 16 at 5% concentration, 51 at 10% concentration, and 33 at 15% concentration. Carrot extract at a concentration of 15% contained the highest percentage of attractant, putting it in the very high attractant category (86%). The percentage of high attractant in coffee extract was found to be 10%, which was in the very high category (80%).
