Prolonged Exposure to Plant Volatiles Does Not Significantly Affect Pban Expression and Mating Behavior in Diamondback Moth [plutella Xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)]
Abstract:Via plant volatiles, herbivorous insects locate hosts, find food, and release spawn for better survival and reproduction. Moreover, plant volatiles not only regulate the synthesis and release of sex pheromones in insects but also help them in the search and orientation of sources of sex pheromones. However, after prolonged exposure to plant volatiles, the changes mediating the mating behavior of diamondback moth (DBM) [Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)] are unclear. DBMs were treated with all… Show more
