Attraction of <i>Frankliniella occidentalis</i> Females towards the Aggregation Pheromone Neryl (<i>S</i>)-2-Methylbutanoate and Kairomones in a Y-Olfactometer

Attraction of <i>Frankliniella occidentalis</i> Females towards the Aggregation Pheromone Neryl (<i>S</i>)-2-Methylbutanoate and Kairomones in a Y-Olfactometer

An understanding of insect olfaction allows for more specific alternative methods of pest control. We evaluated the responses of the western flower thrips (WFT, <i>Frankliniella occidentalis</i>) in a Y-olfactometer to estimate gas-phase concentrations of the aggregation pheromone neryl...
