Feromônios de insetos: tecnologia e desafios para uma agricultura competitiva no Brasil

Abstract: Recebido em 16/1/09; aceito em 17/3/09; publicado na web em 2/4/09INSECT PHEROMONES: TECHNOLOGY AND CHALLENGES FOR A COMPETITIVE AGRICULTURE IN BRAZIL. Pheromones are chemical compounds used by species to communicate intra and inter specifically. As strategy of integrated pest management (IPM), the use of these compounds allows the monitoring of target insects that results in more reliable interventions and consequently avoiding unnecessary use of pesticides. In certain crops these compounds are used as a cont… Show more

“…The application of semiochemicals, particularly synthetic pheromones, has proven to be highly effective in pest management in Brazil, as shown by the commercial pheromones of Anthonomus grandis and Rhyncophorus palmarum (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae), as well as Migdolus fryanus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). 21 Despite the great importance of studies on insect chemical ecology and the use of semiochemicals in integrated pest management, our study is the first to identify the chemical structure of a pheromone in Cantharidae.…”

“…Among all species of insect pests, some stand out because of the negative impact they cause to agribusiness (attack crops with higher planted area) and the differentiated amount of crops that attack (Zarbin and Rodrigues, 2009). According to these criteria, seven of the top ten pest species are of the Lepidoptera order (Germar) and Acromyrmex landolti Forel (Zarbin and Rodrigues, 2009).…”

“…According to these criteria, seven of the top ten pest species are of the Lepidoptera order (Germar) and Acromyrmex landolti Forel (Zarbin and Rodrigues, 2009). Among these pests, the main pest of Brazilian agriculture can be considered the moth S. frugiperda, also known as fall armyworm, due to attack different crops, especially grasses , which together represent 97% of all planted area in the country.…”

“…Semiochemicals are used for various functions such as defense, foraging, and task attributions, among others (Lorenzi et al, 2004;Zarbin and Rodrigues, 2009;Ferreira-Caliman et al, 2013). These compounds, when used in intra-specific communication (Zarbin and Rodrigues, 2009), and found in insect cuticle (Ferreira-Caliman et al, 2013).…”
