Influence of barometric pressure on odor discrimination and oviposition by adult plum curculios (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

We conducted laboratory experiments to elucidate the influence of barometric pressure on odor discrimination and oviposition and feeding behavior of adult female plum curculios, Conotrachelus nenuphar (Herbst). Barometric pressure had a significant effect on Response Index values (used as a measure...
