“…Furthermore, 3-Hexen-1-ol has a noticeable trapping effect on scalable beer species and can be used as an alternative ecological control attractant with a broad-spectrum trapping effect. [ 41 ]. Therefore, the application of T. triquetrum (L.) Ohashi as a traditional medicine in the treatment of various diseases, as well as in cosmetics, the food industry, etc., is mainly based on the role of the above main ingredients.…”

The present study aimed to determine the chemical compositions of essential oils (EOs) from Tadehagi triquetrum (L.) Ohashi and evaluate their antioxidant and anti-cholinesterase activity under the comprehensive influence of chemical components. The essential oils were extracted from T. triquetrum (L.) Ohashi by hydrodistillation. A total of 58 organic compounds were identified by GC-FID and GC-MS analysis. The major components of T. triquetrum (L.) Ohashi EOs were identified as palmitic acid (22.46%), 1-Octen-3-ol (14.07%), Caryophyllene (7.20%), (Z)-18-Octadec-9-enolide (6.04%), and 3-Hexen-1-ol (4.55%). The antioxidant activity of the essential oils was determined by using ABTS assay, DPPH assay, and FRAP assay, with IC50 values of 2.12 ± 0.05 mg/mL, 4.73 ± 0.91 mg/mL against the ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP value 117.42 ± 8.10 mM/g. The result showed that it had moderate antioxidant activities in the experiment, which why it is likely that it will be used as an antioxidant. At the same time, the EOs also showed moderate anti-acetylcholinesterase activity. This study expands the chemical and biological knowledge of the EOs of T. triquetrum.

“…quadriguttata in NE China, and clearly provided damage reduction in soybean fields. Also in NE China, (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol and benzyl alcohol have shown attractiveness to H. diomphalia, H. parallela Motschulsky and A. corpulenta (Li et al, 2013) anethole was attractive to another Anomala species (A. marginata (Robinson)) in Florida, USA (Cherry et al, 1996), and anethole:eugenol was the standard Japanese beetle lure for many years (Fleming, 1969). Based on the above information, the traps baited with Japonilure and/or the Japanese beetle floral lure were utilized in 2012-2013 in various fields to determine the attraction of the chemicals to scarab species and to measure possible damage reductions.…”

“…Therefore, controlling for the scarab beetle is very important. So far, some adult‐control strategies, including sex attractant, aggregation pheromones, oviposition lure, plant volatiles and food traps ( Ulmus pumila and Ricinus communis ) in the field, can interrupt the olfactory behaviours of host selection and mate selection (Zhang et al ., 2006; Li et al ., 2013; Rizwangul et al ., 2018; Li et al ., 2020b, c; Nyamwasa et al ., 2020). The host‐plant selection behaviour was reported to be modulated by chemical sensing of scarab beetle olfaction (Wang et al ., 2013, 2020a, 2020b; Ju et al ., 2018; Yin et al ., 2019; Wei et al ., 2020).…”

Insects possess a fairly sophisticated olfactory system in their antennae to detect odorants essential for their survival and reproduction. Among them, insect first perceives odour sources by odorant‐binding proteins (OBPs) to locate host‐plants. Methyl salicylate, (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate and dibutyl phthalate are major volatile components of Ulmus pumila and Ricinus communis and elicit strong responses of the scarab beetle Holotrichia oblita adults. However, olfactory perception of the scarab beetle to these odorant compounds is unclear. In the current study, we cloned the OBP6 and OBP7 of H. oblita. The expression pattern shows that the two genes were highly expressed in the antennae of female beetles. Binding assays verified that the HoblOBP6 had a better binding affinity to methyl salicylate, and so did HoblOBP7 to (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate and dibutyl phthalate. The effect on the responses of female beetles to the three compounds was decreased significantly after these two genes were silenced by RNA interference. These results indicate that HoblOBP6 and HoblOBP7 are essential for female H. oblita perception of methyl salicylate, (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate and dibutyl phthalate. Our study provides important insights into the olfactory mechanism of female H. oblita to ester plant volatiles and could facilitate the development of potential pest control strategies in the field.
