Abstract:Rapid progress has been made in research on insect pheromones and other semiochemicals in Korea during the last two decades. Sex pheromone compositions have been identified in several major orchard and other horticultural moth pest species and some other species in Korea, such as Helicoverpa assulta, Grapholita molesta, Carposina sasakii, Adoxophyes orana, Lyonetia prunifoliella, Phyllonorycter ringoniella, Dichocrocis punctiferalis, Ostrinia furnacalis and Peridroma saucia. Some of these identified sex pherom… Show more
“…108) In addition, it should also be considered the possible geographical variation in pheromone composition, as in the European pine sawfly N. sertifer, 109) or in the apple leafminer moth, Phyllonorycter ringoniella. 110) Variables like color, form and position of the traps may have also a substantial influence in the number of catches, and optimization needs to be performed for every species. Trap color may be also a significant variable in certain species, like stink bugs, 98) and the processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa males, 111) whereas other species do not show any preference for any specific color.…”
We present herein a review article of the latest developments of the biorational approaches in pest management appeared in the literature from 1997 to date. The proposed advantages of the biopesticides including their specificity, safety to non-target organisms, particularly mammals, and utilization in low, sometimes minute, amounts have led to an intensive research program by public and private institutions resulting in an avalanche of reports in attempts to discover and develop newer and safer pesticides, particularly in the past three decades. This review is divided into three main chapters, including microbial insecticides in pest control, utilization of semiochemicals, and botanical insecticides, paying particular attention to those practical approaches that are respectful to the environment.

“…Nowadays, there is a greater demand to produce environmentally sound and chemical residue-free agricultural products, and the initial doubt and obstacles against using pheromones for pest management have been overcome in recent decades. 140 In Brazil, the research and the development of this area is still concentrating in the Academia. The challenge today for the accurate monitoring and/or control of insects using pheromone is the production in large scale of the pheromone components and the development of proper dispenser system, which would decrease the price of the blends and stimulate their use in the field.…”
Nesta revisão estão descritas as sínteses de feromônios de insetos desenvolvidas e publicadas por grupos de pesquisa brasileiros, e tem por objetivo apresentar o estado da arte desta área de pesquisa no país e fornecer uma informação rápida sobre as moléculas já sintetizadas e metodologias empregadas. As sínteses estão apresentadas em ordem cronológica, exceto quando se trata de diferentes metodologias para a mesma molécula.This review describes the syntheses of insect pheromones developed and published by Brazilian research groups and aims to present the state of the art of this area in the country, and also to serves as a quick view of the already synthesized molecules and employed methodology. The syntheses are presented in chronological order, except when they refer to different approaches for the same molecule.
“…Are detection and identification methods available for the pest? Yes , adults can be detected and populations monitored using sex pheromone traps (Boo, ; Boo and Park, ). Light traps are not effective at trapping adult C. sasakii (Han et al., ).Infested fruit exhibit symptoms which can be detected through visual inspections.…”
The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the peach fruit moth, Carposina sasakii Matsumura (Lepidoptera: Carposinidae) for the EU. C. sasakii is not currently regulated in the EU although C. niponensis, a valid species of no economic significance that was previously mistakenly synonymised with C. sasakii, is regulated in Annex IIAI of 2000/29 EC. C. sasakii is a well‐defined species that is recognised as a major pest of apples, peaches and pears in eastern China, Japan, Korea and Far East Russia. C. sasakii is not known to occur in the EU. Adult C. sasakii emerge in the spring or early summer. Eggs are laid on host fruits. Larvae burrow into the fruit to develop. Infested fruits often drop early. Larvae exit fruit and overwinter in the soil. In the more southern areas of distribution, there can be two or more generations per year. Import of host fruit provides a potential pathway into the EU. C. sasakii occurs in a range of climates in Asia, some of which occur in the EU. Wild and commercially grown hosts are available within the EU. C. sasakii has the potential to establish within the EU where there could be one or two generations per year. Impacts could be expected in apples, pears and other rosaceous fruit crops. The level of impacts would be uncertain. Phytosanitary measures are available to reduce the likelihood of introduction of C. sasakii. C. sasakii meets all the criteria assessed by EFSA PLHP to satisfy the definition of a Union quarantine pest. C. sasakii does not meet the criteria of occurring within the EU, nor plants for planting being the principal means of spread, so does not satisfy all the criteria for it to be regarded as a Union regulated non‐quarantine pest (RNQP).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
