“…Previous reports have been published on the effects of plant components on the pheromone attractiveness of many field pests, including moth species Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel) (Deisig et al 2012;Renou et al 2015), Spodoptera spp. (Guerrero et al 2014), S. littoralis (Rouyar et al 2011;Hatano et al 2015;Renou et al 2015), Heliothis virescens (Fabricious) (Badeke et al 2016) and stink bugs Halyomorpha halys (Stal) (Zhang et al 2014), among others, in which the effects in insects are modulated primarily by odorant receptors (Bohbot & Dickens 2012). However, the effects on Ph-ORNs by the tested components are expected to be clarified by further studies.…”

Plant essential oils (EOs) exhibit an array of biological activities against insect pests. However, their negative influences on the pheromonal activity of azuki bean beetle (ABB), Callosobruchus chinensis L. have not received research attentions. ABB is a field‐to‐storage pest of legumes, and its female produces the sex pheromone known as homofarnesal with two isomeric components: 2E‐ and 2Z–homofarnesal, (2E,6E)‐7‐ethyl‐3,11‐dimethyl‐2,6,10‐dodecatrienals and (2Z,6E)‐7‐ethyl‐3,11‐dimethyl‐2,6,10‐dodecatrienals. We evaluated the effects of three EOs and their two major components on the attractiveness of male ABBs to synthetic homofarnesal (2E‐:2Z–homofarnesal = 6:4) using Y‐tube olfactometry in laboratory and rocket traps in the semi‐open polyhouse. Y‐tube olfactometry showed the significant negative effect of EOs of Illicium verum, Croton anisatum at 10 and 100 ng, and Gaultheria fragrantissima at 100 ng against homofarnesal (100 ng) in attracting male ABBs. Similarly trans‐anethole (at 10 and 100 ng) and methyl salicylate (at 100 ng) also ascertained significant negative effect against homofarnesal (100 ng) in Y‐tube olfactometry. When 10 mg of each of trans‐anethole and methyl salicylate was released at the downstream of 30 mg homofarnesal lure in rocket traps, highly significant effect was achieved against attractiveness of homofarnesal to ABB males. This study ascertained significant level of negative effect of the tested EOs and their major components to homofarnesal, tracing out a new opportunity of integrating them in ABB management programs both in field and storage.

“…Successful methods to control S. littoralis and manage resistance rely on mass trapping, mating disruption and "attract-and kill" methods to significantly reduce mating and crop damage. The only constraint to these methods is their high cost (Guerrero et al, 2014). Guerrero et al (2014) also provide an overview of semiochemical and natural product-based approaches to control Spodoptera spp.…”

The Panel on Plant Health undertook a pest categorisation of Spodoptera littoralis (Boisduval) for the territory of the European Union (EU). This insect is morphologically very similar to S. litura but the two species occupy very distinct geographical distributions, with only S. littoralis found in Europe and Africa. S. littoralis is established only in the southernmost parts of Europe where winters are not too cold. Long-distance northward migrations occur and the pest can also be transported throughout the EU with plants for planting. S. littoralis is highly polyphagous and it is an important pest of a very wide variety of outdoor vegetable, salad and ornamental crops in southern Europe. Field crops, such as lucerne, can also be affected, and even football pitches can be damaged. Population densities and damage vary considerably from year to year. Outbreaks also occur in protected crops, particularly ornamentals, throughout the EU. A very large number of insecticides are deployed to control this pest, which is resistant to many compounds. Resistance management and successful control of the pest can be obtained with mass trapping, mating disruption and attract-and-kill methods. S. littoralis is listed in Annex IAII and special requirements for S. littoralis are formulated in Annexes IVAI and IVAII of Council Directive 2000/29/EC to regulate the movement of plants for planting of three ornamental genera (Dendranthema, Dianthus and Pelargonium).

“…In addition, there is evidence of human intoxication due to exposure to the insecticides used in the management of Spodoptera pests (Barrientos-Gutiérrez et al 2013). Alternative strategies have been proposed to control S. frugiperda, including the use of genetically modified crops , natural enemies (Nuñez-Valdez et al 2008;Ordóñez-García et al 2015), semiochemicals, and other natural product-based approaches (Guerrero et al 2014).…”

Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (fall armyworm) is a pest native to the Americas that affects a variety of crops. Its control is based on chemical insecticides. However, this practice has been associated with changes in the susceptibility of pests to various insecticides. The use of plant products represents an eco-friendly alternative. The objective of this work was to evaluate the larvicidal activity of the chloroform extract of Senna crotalarioides (Kunth) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (Fabaceae) to control S. frugiperda. The chloroform extract of S. crotalarioides caused significant larval mortality, and reduced pupal weight and adult emergence. The analysis by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) revealed the presence of 22 compounds in the chloroform extract of S. crotalarioides leaves, with the straight-chain aliphatic fatty alcohol 1-octacosanol as the main component. This study revealed that the leaves of S. crotalarioides synthesize long chain alcohols, which increased the mortality of S. frugiperda in its larval stage, including the pupal stage. The extract also caused a decrease in the S. frugiperda pupal weight. The potential use of the chloroform extract obtained from S. crotalarioides and its principal chemical constituent is proposed as a promising alternative to control S. frugiperda. ResumenSpodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) es una plaga nativa del continente Americano que afecta a muchos cultivos. Para su control, se emplean insecticidas químico sintéticos. Sin embargo, esta práctica se ha asociado con la generación de resistencia del insecto a estos productos. El uso de productos botánicos representa una alternativa eco amigable. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la actividad larvicida del extracto clorofórmico de Senna crotalarioides (Kunth) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (Fabaceae) para controlar S. frugiperda. El extracto ocasionó mortalidad significativa de la larva. También se observó reducción de peso pupal y de emergencia de adultos. El análisis mediante cromatografía de gases acoplada a espectrometría de masas (GC-MS) reveló la presencia de 22 compuestos en el extracto clorofórmico de las hojas de S. crotalarioides, siendo el alcohol alifático de cadena lineal 1-octacosanol el componente mayoritario. Este estudio reveló que las hojas de S. crotalarioides sintetizan alcoholes de cadenas largas, los cuales ocasionan un incremento en la mortalidad en el estado larval e incluso en el estado pupal de S. frugiperda. También el extracto indujo la disminución del peso pupal. El uso potencial del extracto clorofórmico obtenido de S. crotalarioides así como de su compuesto mayoritario para controlar S. frugiperda se plantea como alternativas promisorias.
