The antennal sensitivities of both male and femaleIps paraconfusus were found generally to be greatest for conspecific aggregation pheromones (ipsdienol, ipsenol); intermediate for an additional conspecific pheromone (cis-verbenol), an aggregation synergist (2-phenylethanol), and pheromones/allomones of sympatric species (trans-verbenol, verbenone, and frontalin); and lowest for both host terpenes (alpha-pinene and myrcene) and other bark beetle-produced odorants (exo-brevicomin and linalool). Of the enantiomeric compounds tested, antennae of both sexes did not differ in sensitivity between thetrans-verbenol enantiomers at low dosage levels; but at higher dosages, the conspecific-produced enantiomer, (1R,4S,5R)-(+)-trans-verbenol, elicited larger mean EAG responses than its antipode, (1S,4R, 5S)-(?)-trans-verbenol. At the mid-dosage range, female antennae tended to be slightly more responsive to (S)-(?)-verbenone than to (R)-(+)-verbenone, while male antennae were equally responsive to stimulations by either verbenone enantiomer. In field bioassays there was a large and significant reduction in trap catches ofI. paraconfusus on traps where the (S)-(?)- or (R)-(+)-enantiomers of verbenone were evaporated beside logs containing boring conspecific males. Only when the (S)-(?)-enantiomer of verbenone was evaporated beside logs containing boring males did the sex ratio ofI. paraconfusus trapped shift from female-dominated to male-dominated attraction. Thus both physiological and behavioral data suggest a differential chiral sensitivity of female beetles for the verbenone enantiomers. The relative sensitivities between different chiral compounds derived from one or the other of the common precursoral host terpenes, (S)-(?)- and (R)-(+)alpha-pinene or myrcene, are discussed. 相似文献

Gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection and GC-mass spectrometric analyses of volatile extracts from male and female Pityogenes knechteli Swaine identified hexanol, (±)-ipsdienol, and (S)-(–)-ipsenol as male-produced candidate pheromone components. In a lodgepole pine, Pinus contorta var. latifolia Engelmann, forest in the southern interior of British Columbia, multiple-funnel traps baited with (±)-ipsdienol alone, (S)-(–)-ipsenol alone, or both caught 60%, 6%, and 23%, respectively, of all P. knechteli trapped; unbaited traps caught the remaining 11%. In another field trapping experiment, (S)-(+)-ipsdienol was as attractive as (±)-ipsdienol, and (R)-(–)-ipsdienol was behaviorally benign. (S)-(+)-Ipsdienol is thus concluded to be the principal aggregation pheromone component of P. knechteli. At low release rates, hexanol increased attraction of beetles to (±)-ipsdienol, or to (±)-ipsidienol plus (S)-(–)-ipsenol, but at high release rates hexanol decreased attraction, suggesting a role in preventing overpopulation in the host tree. On the basis of laboratory bioassays in which walking beetles were attracted to (S)-(–)-ipsenol, we hypothesize that (S)-(–)-ipsenol serves as a short-range attractant for P. knechteli. Three sympatric scolytids were also captured in field experiments as follows: the pine engraver, Ips pini (Say), to its pheromone (±)-ipsdienol; I. latidens LeConte to its pheromone (S)-(–)-ipsenol; and I. mexicanus (Hopkins), for which the pheromone is unknown, to (S)-(–)-ipsenol with (±)-ipsdienol. Although all four species attack lodgepole pine, we have never observed I. latidens or I. mexicanus attacking the same hosts at P. knechteli or I. pini. These results suggest that ipsenol and ipsdienol serve as synomones involved in promoting aggregation on the host tree, maintaining species-specific communication, and thus contributing to resource partitioning and reduced competition among the four species. 相似文献

In bioassays conducted with walking beetles in the laboratory (S)–(+)–, (R)-(–)-, and (±)-ipsdienol were attractive alone, but reduced the attraction of both sexes of the mountain pine beetle,Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins, to extracts of female frass. Field trapping studies indicated that attraction ofD. ponderosae to a stimulus composed of myrcene +trans-verbenol +exo-brevicomin was significantly reduced with the addition of (±)- and sometimes (S)-(±)-ipsdienol. Thus, (S)-(+)-ipsdienol produced by males of this species may act as an antiaggregation pheromone. (S)-(+)-Ips-dienol is thought to function as a repellent allomone against the pine engraver,Ips pini (Say), in regions whereI. pini utilizes (R)-(–)-ipsdienol as an aggregation pheromone. However, in southwestern British ColumbiaI. pini was attracted to the (±)-ipsdienol used in field bioassays ofD. ponderosae, a finding consistent with the production of both enantiomers byI. pini in this region. When presented with the ternary semiochemical bait forD. ponderosae, (±)-ipsdienol was not attractive toI. pini. Thus, the activity of (S)-(+)-ipsdienol as a repellent allomone againstI. pini seems to be replaced in southwestern British Columbia by the inhibitory effects of myrcene,trans-verbenol,exo-brevicomin, or some combination thereof.Research supported in part by Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, Canada, Operating Grant A3881, Strategic Grant G1039, a Postgraduate Scholarship to D.W.A.

Volatiles from hindgut extracts of males of the Qinghai spruce bark beetle, Ips nitidus, from different attack phases (phase 1: unpaired males and phases 2–4: males joined with one to three females) and hindgut
extracts of mated females were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS)/flame ionization detection (FID) with
both polar and enantioselective columns. The GC–MS/FID analyses demonstrated that unpaired males from attack phase 1 (nuptial
chamber constructed) produced 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, approx. 74%-(−)-ipsdienol, and (−)-cis-verbenol as major hindgut components, and (−)-trans-verbenol, (−)-ipsenol, (−)-verbenone, myrtenol, and 2-phenylethanol as minor or trace components. The quantities of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol
and especially ipsdienol decreased after mating during phases 2–4, whereas the quantities of (−)-cis- and (−)-trans-verbenol did not change. In contrast, the quantity of (−)-ipsenol seemed to increase as mating activity progressed. After
mating with three females (harem size = 3; phase 4), only trace to small amounts of male-specific compounds were detected
from I. nitidus male hindguts. Chemical analysis of the hindgut extracts of mated females showed only trace amounts of semiochemicals. A
field-trapping bioassay in Qinghai, China showed that the four-component “full blend” containing the three major components,
2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, (±)-ipsdienol, and (−)-cis-verbenol, plus a minor component, (−)-trans-verbenol, caught significantly more I. nitidus (♂/♀ = 1:2.2) than did the unbaited control and two binary blends. The replacement of (±)-ipsdienol with nearly enantiomerically
pure (−)-ipsdienol in the “full blend” significantly reduced trap catches, which suggests that both enantiomers are needed
for attraction. On the other hand, removal of (−)-trans-verbenol from the active “full blend” had no significant effect on trap catches. Our results suggest that the three major
components, 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, 74%-(−)-ipsdienol, and (−)-cis-verbenol (at 7:2:1), produced by unpaired fed males, are likely the aggregation pheromone components of I. nitidus, thus representing the first characterization of an aggregation pheromone system of a bark beetle native solely to China. 相似文献

Extracts of pheromone glands from female Lymantria fumida were analyzed by coupled gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) and by coupled GC–mass spectrometry (MS). The two compounds that elicited responses from male L. fumida antennae were identified as cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane (disparlure) and 2-methyl-Z7-octadecene (2me-Z7–18Hy). Field experiments in northern Japan demonstrated that synthetic (7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane [(+)-disparlure] and 2me-Z7–18Hy are synergistic sex pheromone components of L. fumida. (7S,8R)-cis-7,8-Epoxy-2-methyloctadecane [(–)-disparlure] had no behavioral effect on male L. fumida. Traps baited with (+)-disparlure and 2me-Z7–18Hy captured male L. fumida between 21:00 and 24:00 hr, whereas traps baited with (+)-monachalure [(7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-octadecane], (+)-disparlure and 2me-Z7–18Hy attracted males of the nun moth, L. monacha L., between 02:00 and 04:00 hr. Both temporal separation of pheromonal communication and specificity of pheromone blends seem to contribute to the reproductive isolation of sympatric and coseasonal L. fumida and L. monacha. 相似文献

The genetic nature of pheromone variation within species has rarely been studied, and never for male-produced long-range pheromones. Males from western North American populations of Ips pini produce predominantly (R)-(−)-ipsdienol, whereas those from eastern North American populations produce higher proportions of (S)-(+)-ipsdienol. From a population in the hybrid zone, we divergently selected lines for the opposing pheromonal types and then created F1, F2, and backcross lines. We formed additional F1, F2, and backcross lines, first by using populations with low (+)-ipsdienol enantiomeric ratios near to and distant from the hybrid zone, and then by using populations with high (+)-ipsdienol enantiomeric ratios near to and distant from the hybrid zone. Three types of analysis were employed: (1) line means analysis; (2) Mendelian analysis of assigned high and low (+)-ipsdienol enantiomeric ratio phenotypes when applicable; and (3) Castle–Wright estimation of the number of effective factors. Dominance at one autosomal locus explains much of the variation in ipsdienol blend between the divergently selected lines. Thus, as in all previously studied female long-range pheromone systems, a major genetic element is implicated. The populations with low (+)-ipsdienol enantiomeric ratios near and distant to the hybrid zone differ negligibly for this trait. We confirmed previous studies showing slightly higher ratios of (+)-ipsdienol at the hybrid zone than in a distant eastern population and reveal a genetic basis for this difference. 相似文献

Six yeast strains have been isolated and identified from the spruce bark beetle,Ips typographus. We have studied the ability of the yeasts to interconvertcis-verbenol,trans-verbenol, and verbenone. (1S)-cis-Verbenol is an active component in the aggregation pheromone ofIps typographus. The isolatedCandida molischiana/ Hansenula capsulata strain can convert both (1R)- and (1S)-cis-verbenol to verbenone. TheCandida nitratophila strain converts (1R)-cis-verbenol totrans-verbenol and (1S)-cis-verbenol to verbenone. Some of the yeast strains produce 3-methylbutanol, 2-methylpropanol, and 2-phenylethanol after growth in Sabouraud medium. 相似文献

We determined the chirality of ipsdienol in individual male pine engravers,Ips pini (Say), from New York, California, and two localities in British Columbia (BC). Both quantity and chirality of ipsdienol varied significantly between and within populations ofI. pini. Beetles from California and southeastern BC produced primarily (R)-(–)-ipsdienol with mean ratios of (S)-(+) : (R)-(–) of 9 : 91 and 11 : 89, respectively, while beetles from New York produced primarily (S)-(+)-ipsdienol with a mean (S)-(+) : (R)-(–) ratio of 57 : 43. A population from southwestern BC was unlike any other known western population, producing primarily (S)-(+)-ipsdienol with a mean (S)-(+) : (R)-(–) ratio of 66 : 34. In contrast to the unimodal chirality profiles for ipsdienol production in populations from California and southeastern BC, the profiles of the populations from southwestern BC and New York were bimodal, with a common mode at approximately 44 : 56 (S)-(+) : (R)-(–). Bimodality in the profiles of ipsdienol chirality in two populations ofI. pini and remarkably high levels of intrapopulation variation in pheromone chirality in all four populations suggest that evolutionary change in pheromone channels of communication could occur, possibly in response to artificial selection pressures such as mass trapping. 相似文献

Ipsenol was identified from the frass of male, but not female,Ips latidens from British Columbia, feeding in phloem tissue of lodgepole pine,Pinus contorta var.latifolia. The responses ofJ. latidens to sources of ips-enol andcis-verbenol were determined with multiple-funnel traps in stands of lodgepole pine in British Columbia. Ipsenol attracted both male and femaleI. latidens, verifying that it is a pheromone for this species. MaleI. latidens showed a slight preference for (S)-(–)-ipsenol.cis-Verbenol was not produced by beetles of either sex and, in contrast to an earlier report, both enantiomers inhibited attraction to ipsenol-baited traps. The predators,Enoclerus sphegeus andThanasimus undatulus (Cleridae), were attracted to traps baited withcis-verbenol and ipsenol. 相似文献

The stimulation effect of the two enantiomers of the male-produced aggregation pheromone, ipsdienol, was tested by electrophysiological recordings from single olfactory cells in females of two species,Ips pini andI. paraconfusus. The results demonstrated two types of receptor cells, each specialized to one of the optical configurations. This suggests that separate acceptors (membrane receptors) for (+)- and (–)-ipsdienol are produced by the beetles' receptor cells. The dose-response curves obtained for the 92% pure enantiomers and racemic mixtures indicated no synergistic or inhibitory interaction of the enantiomers on the receptor cells. The results could be explained by activation of one acceptor type in each cell group.
I. paraconfusus apparently had the majority of its ipsdienol cells keyed to the (+)-enantiomer. Conversely, the westernI.pini had more cells tuned to (–)- than to (+)-ipsdienol. This difference is consistent with behavioral responses where these species are sympatric in California. The (+)- and (–)-ipsdienol are aggregation pheromone components ofI. paraconfusus anaI. pint, respectively, and the opposite enantiomers act as aggregation inhibiting allomones. More (–)- than (+)-ipsdienol cells were also obtained in the easternI. pint, even though this population produces more (+)- than (–)-ipsdienol (6335) and requires both enantiomers for aggregation behavior. However, the difference in the numbers of (+)- and (–)-ipsdienol cells recorded from the eastern population was insufficient for an acceptable level of statistical confidence. 相似文献

Analyses of the enantiomeric composition of ipsdienol produced by individual male pine engravers,Ips pini (Say), from six populations in British Columbia, support the hypothesis that New York and Idaho races of this species hybridize in southeastern British Columbia. Production profiles, expressed as frequency distributions of (+):(-) ipsdienol ratios [= ratio of (S)-(+)-ipsdienol to (R)-(-)-ipsdienol], were bimodal for four western British Columbia populations. The (+):(-) ratios ranged from 63:37 to 71:29. consistent with those previously found for the New York race. The profile for a southeastern population from Radium, British Columbia, was intermediate between those for the four western British Columbia populations and that from one population in Kimberley, British Columbia, just south of Radium. Males in the Kimberley population produce predominantly (R)-(-)-ipsdienol, typical of California nad Idaho males. Response profiles of different individuals ofI. pini, determined by captures of beetles in multiple-funnel traps baited with ipsdienol of 11 different (+):(-) ratios, were not consistent with production profiles. Populations in Williams Lake and Princeton, in western British Columbia, and Radium, in southeastern British Columbia, had response profiles with maximal attraction to ipsdienol over a broad range of (+):(-) ratios, falling off as enantiomeric purity was approached at either end of the spectrum. This type of response profile is consistent with that for the New York race, which has been shown to respond optimally to (+):(-) ratios ranging from 40:60 to 70:30. The response profile of the Kimberley population gradually declined from maximal attraction to ipsdienol with a (+):(-) ratio of 2:98 to the lowest response at a (+):(-) ratio of 98:2. The attraction ofI. pini to chemical stimuli in California is interrupted by ipsdienol with a (+):(-) ratio >5:95, a pheromone of a host competitor, the California five-spined ips,Ips paraconfusus Lanier. We hypothesie that the Idaho race, which does not compete withI. paraconfusus due to geographical separation, is characterized by a Kimberley-type enantiomeric response profile, intermediate between those of the New York and California races. 相似文献

Electroantennograms were recorded from the grape borerXylotrechus pyrrhoderus in response to serial dilutions of male sex pheromone components, (2S,3S)-octanediol and (2S)-hydroxy-3-octanone, and to 100 g of their optical isomers and host plant substances. Female antennae always responded more strongly than male antennae. Antennae of both sexes were highly sensitive to (2S)-hydroxy-3-octanone. F/M ratio (female to male EAG value) was greater for male sex pheromone components, especially (2S,3S)-octanediol, and their optical isomers than plant substances. Antennal sensitivity to optical isomers (2R,3R-octanediol and 2S,3R-octanediol) was lower than true pheromone components. 相似文献

Considering the vast Eurasian distribution of gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), the many subspecies, and their presence in different lymantriid communities, we tested the hypothesis that L. dispar populations in eastern Asia employ one or more pheromone components in addition to the previously known single component pheromone (7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane [= (+)-disparlure]. Coupled gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection (GC–EAD) analyses of pheromone gland extracts of female L. dispar sensu lato (including both AGM and NAGM) on four GC columns (DB-5, DB-23, DB-210, and SP-1000) revealed a new trace component that eluted just before (DB-5; DB-210) or after (DB-23, SP-1000) disparlure, and elicited strong antennal responses. Isolation of this compound by high-performance liquid chromatography and hydrogenation produced disparlure, suggesting that the new component had the molecular skeleton of disparlure, with one or more double bonds. Of all possible monounsaturated cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecenes, only cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadec-17-ene co-chro- matographed with the insect-produced compound on all GC columns and elicited comparable antennal responses. In field experiments in Honshu (Japan) with enantioselectively synthesized compounds, (7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2- methyloctadec-17-ene (7R8S-epo-2me-17-ene-18Hy) was weakly attractive to male L. dispar, but was less effective as a trap bait than (+)-disparlure, and failed to enhance attractiveness of (+)-disparlure when tested in blends. The antipode, (7S,8R)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadec-17-ene, was not attractive, and when added to (+)-disparlure and/or 7R8S-epo-2me-17-ene-18Hy reduced attractiveness. Thus, the biological role of 7R8S-epo-2me-17-ene-18Hy remains unclear. It may enhance pheromone attractiveness or specificity in other L. dispar populations within their vast Eurasian distribution. 相似文献

The sex pheromone for Anomala octiescostata has been previously identified as a 4:1 mixture of (R)-buibuilactone and (R)-japonilure. Field experiments showed that although not active per se, the secondary component increased the activity of major component, buibuilactone. The enantiomers of these semiochemicals, i.e., (S)-buibuilactone and (S)-japonilure are neither attractants nor behavioral antagonists to the pheromone system of A. octiescostata. Chiral GC-EAD experiments demonstrated that, in marked contrast to the Japanese beetle and Osaka beetle, which can detect a stereoisomer not produced by their conspecific females, the male antennae of A. octiescostata lack olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) tuned to (S)-buibuilactone. The same enantiomeric anosmia (inability to smell a compound) was also observed in Anomala cuprea male antennae. Both in a Y-olfactometer and field experiments, it was clarified that (S)-buibuilactone was not a behavioral antagonist for A. cuprea. Contrary to male antennae of both A. octiescostata and A. cuprea, which lack ORNs tuned to the nonnatural (S)-buibuilactone, fragrance evaluation by skilled perfumers revealed that the human nose can discriminate (both in intensity and quality) enantiomerically pure samples of (R)- and (S)-buibuilactone and japonilure. 相似文献

Sex Pheromone Components of Casuarina Moth, Lymantria xylina 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

cis-7,8-Epoxy-2-methyleicosane is a sex pheromone component of the Casuarina moth, Lymantria xylina Swinhoe. The compound was extracted from pheromone glands of female moths and was identified by coupled gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) and GC–mass spectrometry. In field experiments in Taiwan, traps baited with either or both of (7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyleicosane (>99% ee) [termed here (+)-xylinalure] and (7S,8R)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyleicosane (>99% ee) [termed here (–)-xylinalure] captured male L. xylina. Addition of further candidate pheromone components to xylinalure did not enhance its attractiveness. Demonstration of whether or not female L. xylina produce both optical isomers of xylinalure, and determination of the ratio, will require pheromone extract analyses on a chiral, enantiomer-separating column (as yet unavailable) or derivatization of epoxides in accumulated gland extracts. Attraction of male L. xylina to either enantiomer of xylinalure contrasts with enantiospecific production of, and/or response to, epoxy pheromones in congeners. With no other nocturnal lymantriid moth known in Taiwan to utilize xylinalure for pheromonal communication, enantiospecific fine tuning of xylinalure, or evolution of a more complex pheromone blend, may not have been necessary for L. xylina to maintain specificity of sexual communication. Racemic xylinalure will be appropriate for pheromone-based detection surveys of L. xylina in North America. 相似文献

The Indian gypsy moth, Lymantria obfuscata (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), has been recognized as a distinct species since 1865 but closely resembles a diminutive form
of gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar. We tested the hypothesis that the sex pheromones of L. obfuscata and L. dispar are similar. In laboratory mate acceptance studies, very few male L. dispar made copulatory attempts when paired with female L. obfuscata, suggesting that female L. obfuscata emit one or more pheromone components antagonistic to male L. dispar. In coupled gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection (GC–EAD) analyses of pheromone gland extract of female L. obfuscata, (Z)-2-methyloctadec-7-ene (2Me-7Z-18Hy) and (7R,8S)-cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane [(+)-disparlure] were most abundant and elicited the strongest responses from male L. obfuscata antennae. In field experiments near Solan (Himachal Pradesh, India), 2Me-7Z-18Hy and (+)-disparlure in combination attracted more male L. obfuscata than did either component alone. This two-component sex pheromone contrasts with the single-component sex pheromone [(+)-disparlure]
of L. dispar. The contrasting composition of the lymantriid communities inhabited by L. obfuscata and L. dispar may explain why 2Me-7Z-18Hy is a pheromone component in L. obfuscata and a pheromone antagonist in L. dispar and why (−)-disparlure reduces pheromonal attraction of male L. dispar but not male L. obfuscata. 相似文献

In south-central British Columbia, the attraction ofIps latidens (LeConte) to its pheromone, ipsenol, was inhibited by (S)–(+)-ipsdienol, a pheromone forI. pini (Say). (R)-(–)–lpsdienol had no effect onI. latidens. (S)–(+)-lpsdienol probably plays a role in interspecific communication between the two species, facilitating reductions in interspecific competition for breeding material and/or interspecific mating interference. 相似文献

The enantiomeric composition of the pheromone components (+)-ipsdienoI, e.e. 87.6%, and (–)-ipsenol, e.e. 93.8%, produced by the male bark beetleIps paraconfusus (Scolytidae) under natural conditions was determined by HPLC separation of their diastereomeric ester derivatives. Males confined in an atmosphere of ipsdienone produced (–)-ipsdienol, e.e. 28%, and (–)-ipsenol, e.e. 86%, indicating an enantiomeric selectivity in the conversion of the ketone to the alcohols. These findings demonstrate an enantioselective conversion mechanism in the biosynthetic pathway to the pheromones from myrcene, a host-plant terpene. 相似文献

The sex pheromone of the pea midge consists of 2-acetoxytridecane, (2S,11S)-diacetoxytridecane and (2S,12S)-diacetoxytridecane. The responses of male pea midges to the corresponding stereoisomers of (2S,11S)-diacetoxytridecane and (2S,12S)-diacetoxytridecane were tested in field trapping experiments and by electroantennographic recordings. When added at 20% of the pheromone component to the sex pheromone blend, the (2S,11R)- and (2R,11S)-stereoisomers of (2S,11S)-diacetoxytridecane, were shown to have a strong inhibitory effect on male attraction in the field. At the same dose, (2R,11R)-diacetoxytridecane, (2R,12R)-diacetoxytridecane, and meso-2,12-diacetoxytridecane, did not have a significant effect on male behavior. It was also shown that substitution of either (2S,11S)-diacetoxytridecane or (2S,12S)-diacetoxytridecane with the related stereoisomers reduced trap catches to the level of blank traps. The electroantennographic recordings showed similar dose–response curves for the pheromone components and the stereoisomers shown to have an inhibitory effect. It seems likely that male antennae have receptors for both pheromone components and for inhibitory stereoisomers. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy of the antennae revealed three types of sensilla involved in chemoreception: sensilla circumfila, sensilla trichodea, and sensilla coeloconica. The sensilla circumfila and trichodea are both innervated by two sensory cells, whereas the sensilla coeloconica are innervated by four to five cells. 相似文献

In laboratory bioassay experiments, the beetles Pityokteines elegans were attracted to volatiles captured from bolts of grand fir, Abies grandis, colonized by P. elegans males. Male-specific volatiles detected by coupled gas chromatographic–electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) analysis and by GC–mass spectrometry employing a chiral column were: (S)-(?)-ipsenol, (+)- and (?)-ipsdienol, and ipsenone. Field experiments demonstrated that 1:1 combinations of (?)-ipsenol and (±)-ipsdienol strongly attracted insects of both sexes to multiple-funnel traps. No beetles were attracted to any of these compounds alone, and both enantiomers of ipsdienol were required with (?)-ipsenol to induce attraction. Ipsenol and ipsdienol are now reported as pheromones of five Pityokteines species. Specificity of semiochemical-based communication between sympatric P. elegans and P. minutus appears to be based on host preference and on the composition and chirality of the pheromone blend. 相似文献
