Abstract:
... The response of Frankliniella gossypiana Hood (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) to blue sticky traps baited with different doses of the compound neryl (S)-2methylbutanoate in commercial cucumber plantations was evaluated. This compound is reported as the major component of the aggregation pheromone of Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande and Frankliniella intonsa Trybom (both Thysanoptera: Thripidae) and w ...

Abstract:
... Blue sticky traps with and without pheromone capsules were used to monitor and control Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande (1895) (Thysanoptera; Thripidae) in pepper crop greenhouses in Tunisia. Traps containing pheromone capsules could catch significantly more thrips than those without capsules, proving their efficiency in attracting and controlling this pest. In fact, greenhouses with traps with ...

Abstract:
... Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) is an important insect pest of greenhouse roses. Trials were carried out in glasshouse grown roses with the commercially available thrips lures ThripLine ams (male sex aggregation pheromone) and Lurem-TR (kairomone) with yellow sticky traps to evaluate their efficacy as part of a monitoring and mass trapping strategy against F. occidenta ...

Abstract:
... Olfactometer bioassays of walking adult western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) showed that virgin females (1- to 3-d postemergence) were attracted to the odor of 25 adult males, but not to the odor of 25 adult females, providing behavioral evidence for a male-produced sex pheromone in this species. In contrast to earlier findings, mixed-age adult male ...

Abstract:
... Herbivore natural enemies base their foraging decision on information cues from different trophic levels but mainly from plant odors. However, the second trophic level (i.e., the herbivorous prey) may also provide reliable infochemical cues for their natural enemies. We have evaluated the role of the aggregation pheromone from Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) as a potential kairomone for its ...

Abstract:
... The aggregation pheromone of the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), has previously been identified as the monoterpenoid ester neryl (S)-2-methylbutanoate. It attracts both male and female adults to traps in commercial glasshouses. In this paper, we investigate the rates of production of this compound at two male densities and in the presence or absence of ...

Abstract:
... Pheromones play an important role in mediating interspecific interactions in insects. In an insect community, pheromones can reveal information about the senders, which could be used by other members of the food web (competitor, natural enemies, etc.) to their own advantage. The aggregation pheromones of two closely related thrips species, Frankliniella occidentalis and Frankliniella intonsa, have ...

Abstract:
... Sternal pores are important features for identification of male thrips, especially within the subfamily Thripinae. They vary in shape, size and distribution even between species of one genus. Their functional role is speculated to be that of sex- and/or aggregation pheromone production. Yet, sexual aggregations are not reported in Echinothrips americanus, known to have sternal pores, while we obse ...

Abstract:
... Frankliniella occidentalis causes significant damage to berry crops in Mexico. Traps may be used for monitoring or mass‐trapping thrips populations. Generally, colour traps are used for monitoring thrips, but sometimes a chemical stimulus can be added to the traps. However, there is conflicting information about what colour is the most attractive and efficient for capturing F. occidentalis. In thi ...

Abstract:
... Aggregation pheromones have been identified and tested in the field for Frankliniella occidentalis and Thrips palmi. These pheromones are produced by adult males and attract both males and females. They are likely to be widespread across the Thripidae and identification is in progress for several other pest species. Aggregation pheromones are used commercially for monitoring and activation.

Abstract:
... Adult males of the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), produce an aggregation pheromone that attracts both male and female adults. This pheromone is assumed to be produced by the sternal glands that are externally evident from distinctive regions known as pore plates or areae porosae on abdominal sternites III–VII of adult males. In this paper, we investiga ...
