Suitability of electronic monitoring system to the analysis of feeding behavior of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), larvae.
Abstract:The electronic monitoring system (EMS) has been used for measuring the feeding behavior of numerous piercingsucking insects. Although it has also been used for measuring that of chewing-type insects, waveform patterns have not been analyzed in detail. Therefore, we measured the feeding behavior of Plutella xylostella larvae by using a computer-based EMS to correlate between waveforms and behavioral events accurately and efficiently. In this study, we confirmed four distinctive waveforms that related to feeding… Show more
