“…are effective against B. tabaci at a 2 L/L air dose. Additionally, Baldin et al, (2013) suggested that essential oils obtained from Plectranthus neochilus Schltr. at 1% concentration applied to tomato can efficiently reduce adult infestation and oviposition of B. tabaci biotype B.…”

“…Moreover, plant essential oils have no detrimental effects on beneficial insects and have low environmental persistence and mammalian toxicity (Isman, 2000(Isman, , 2006. Many essential oils repel a range of agricultural pests, including onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) (van Tol et al, 2007a), silverleaf whiteflies [Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius)] (Yang et al, 2010;Baldin et al, 2013), red bud borers [Resseliella oculiperda (R€ ubsaamen)] (van Tol et al, 2007b), pollen beetles [Meligethes aeneus (Fabricius)] (Mauchline et al, 2005), and Japanese beetles (Popillia japonica Newman) (Youssef et al, 2009). Some studies investigated the response of E. vitis to nonhost aromatic plant volatiles (Zhang et al, 2014a), but few have studied their response to essential oils extracted from aromatic plant species in the field.…”

The tea green leafhopper, Empoasca vitis Göthe (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), is an economically important pest of tea crops, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze (Theaceae), in China. The use of non‐host plant essential oils for manipulation of E. vitis was investigated for potential incorporation into a ‘push‐pull’ control strategy for this pest. The effectiveness of 14 plant essential oils in repelling E. vitis was investigated in laboratory assays. Rosemary oil, geranium oil, lavender oil, cinnamon oil, and basil oil repelled leafhoppers in a Y‐shaped olfactometer. We also compared the efficacy of these five plant essential oils to repel E. vitis in the presence of a host plant volatile‐based leafhopper attractant, (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate, in a tea plantation. In the treatment combination, four plates (north, south, east, and west) treated with an essential oil surrounded a central sticky plate treated with (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate. Fewer E. vitis were found on the plates treated with rosemary oil (12.5% reduction) than on the four water‐sprayed control treatment plates surrounding a central plate with (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate. We compared the distribution of E. vitis on the plates, and the relative numbers of E. vitis on each plate were compared with similar plates in the control treatment. When four plates treated with rosemary oil surrounded a central (Z)‐3‐hexenyl acetate‐treated plate, the distribution of E. vitis on the different plates changed significantly compared with that of the control. Relatively fewer E. vitis were found on the east (13.0% reduction) rosemary oil‐treated plates and more E. vitis (11.3% increase) were found on the central attractant‐treated plate. Our findings indicate that rosemary oil is a promising leafhopper repellent that should be tested further in a ‘push‐pull’ strategy for control of E. vitis.

“…The tobacco whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), has long been recognized as a major invasive pest, causing severe damage by direct feeding and indirect damage by transmitting plant viral diseases on various host plants (Byrne & Bellows, 1991). Many studies have been carried out to describe the interactions between B. tabaci, other herbivores competing on shared host plants, various host plants, as well as generalist or specialist natural enemies (Hoddle et al, 1998;Inbar & Gerling, 2008;Jiao et al, 2012;Baldin et al, 2013;Bompard et al, 2013;Jaworski et al, 2013). Successful B. tabaci IPM requires knowledge of the responses and interactions of B. tabaci with other species that share the same host plants; it may notably help optimizing biological control in complex agro-ecosystems (Stansly & Natwick, 2010;Bompard et al, 2013).…”

An in-depth understanding of plant-mediated interactions between herbivores and their natural enemies is essential in community ecology and co-evolution, and for developing sustainable pest management strategies. The influence of Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae)-induced tomato plant [Solanum lycopersicum L. (Solanaceae)] volatile compounds on the olfactory responses of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), three predator species [Coccinella septempunctata L., Propylea japonica (Mulstant) (both Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), and Orius sauteri (Poppius) (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae)], two whitefly parasitoid species [Encarsia formosa (Gahan) and Encarsia sophia (Girault & Dodd) (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae)], and one aphid parasitoid species [Aphidius gifuensis Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Aphidiidae)] were examined in two-choice tests using a four-arm olfactometer. Tomato plants were experimentally manipulated for aphid density, duration of aphid feeding, and interval between aphid removal and the behavioral test. We also compared the systemic effects of aphid feeding on the olfactory behavior of whiteflies and natural enemies according to three relative leaf positions: the aphid-infested leaf itself and two adjacent leaves (above and below). Bemisia tabaci were deterred by the odors of the leaves infested with aphids in all treatments. All six natural enemies were attracted to the leaves infested with aphids. Bemisia tabaci deterrence by volatiles was greater for leaves at the highest aphid density, and with increasing duration of exposure to aphid feeding. In contrast, the attraction to leaves was greater for the three parasitoids than for the three predators both with increasing aphid density and increasing duration of plant exposure to aphids. There was no significant influence of leaf position on preference of B. tabaci, the two species of lady beetles, and the aphid parasitoid. The two Encarsia species were attracted to the leaf above the aphid-infested leaves, indicating that systemic volatiles were released by adjacent leaves. On the other hand, O. sauteri was only attracted by the aphid-infested leaf itself. Our results showed that M. persicae-infested host plants emitted volatiles that could inhibit the colonization by B. tabaci and also attract natural enemies of both aphids and whiteflies. The results of this study may need to be considered further for optimizing pest management methods.
