Abstract:With high aphid-repellent activity but low stability,
(E)-β-farnesene (EβF), the major component
of
the aphid alarm pheromone, can be used as a synergist to insecticides.
Some EβF analogues possess both good aphid-repellent activity
and stability, but the synergistic effect and related mechanism are
still unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the synergistic
effect and underlying mechanism of the EβF and its analogue
against the aphid Myzus persicae. The
results indicated that EβF and the analogue showed… Show more
