“…Each year, 3 traps per orchard were placed approximately 1.5 m above the ground (Barel, 1973;Minks and de Jong, 1975;Hrudova, 2003) at a distance of 45 m from each other to prevent interaction among the traps (Kraan and Deventer, 1982). In addition, one blank trap was used as a control in each orchard.…”

IntroductionThe summer fruit tortrix moth, Adoxophyes orana (Fischer von Röslerstamm, 1834) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is a polyphagous pest of pome and stone fruits in most of Europe and Asia. A. orana larvae have a strong preference for apples and pears in central and northern Europe (Barel, 1973;Charmillot and Brunner, 1990;Stamenkovic et al., 1999). However, they seem to change their preference to peaches and sweet cherries in southern Europe, where larval damage was more common in stone fruits (Savopoulou-Soultani et al., 1985).A. orana can be considered the most damaging leaf roller species in Europe due to its wide range of host plants and high abundance during the summer (Kocourek and Stara, 2005). Since its introduction, it has established itself as a serious pest of apples in England and peaches in Greece (Savopoulou-Soultani et al., 1985;Cross, 1996).The larvae may cause both direct and indirect damage by actively feeding on leaves, buds, flowers, shoots, and fruit. Indirect damage occurs when the larva feeds on young shoots and leaves that are stuck together. Leaf and shoot damage usually has no economic impact unless leaf roller populations reach high density and completely defoliate host trees (Dickler, 1991). In contrast, larval feeding directly on fruit, especially in June and July, may result in crop losses varying from 10% to 82% in apples, peaches, and pears (de Jong et al., 1971;Whittle 1985;Stamenkovic and Pesic, 1998). Economic damage can exceed $1,000,000, as reported in 33,000 ha of apples in the Netherlands in the late 1980s (de Jong et al., 1971;Whittle, 1985).Fruit damage usually occurs in the spots where leaves are attached to fruit with a silken web of larvae. Larvae can also cause cosmetic damage to apple, peach, and pear fruits. Damaged fruits show a "gnawed" or misshapen appearance due to malformed skin. External damage may also present an opportunity for pathogens to infect, which further damages internal quality and/or reduces the shelf life of fruits (de Jong and Van Dieren, 1974;Whittle, 1985).The summer fruit tortrix moth may produce 2-3 generations per year, depending on climatic factors, host plant availability, and presence of natural enemies

“…The components of the sex pheromone of H. nubiferana have been identified as (E,E)-dodeca-8,10-dien-1-yl acetate (E8E10-12Ac), (Z)-dodec-8-en-1-yl acetate (Z8-12Ac) and dodecyl acetate (S12Ac) (Fr erot et al 1979). Traps baited with the sex pheromone components of H. nubiferana are used for detecting and monitoring of male moths (Hrudov a 2003;Liblikas and Kuusik 2006). However, a new lure capable of also catching females would have significant advantages over the use of traps baited with the sex pheromone.…”

This study was initiated with the objective of studying field responses of the green budworm moth, Hedya nubiferana (Haworth) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), to pear ester [PE; ethyl (E,Z)-2,4-decadienoate] and acetic acid (AA) with the aim of developing a lure attractive also for females. In the overwhelming majority of tests, traps baited with the PEAA lure (the combination of both PE and AA) caught more than traps baited with either of the constituents presented alone. PEAA lures were attractive to H. nubiferana no matter whether the two compounds were provided in separate dispensers or mixed together in a single one, and a large percentage (up to 71%) of trap catch consisted of females. Traps with PEAA lures caught (females plus males) on an average 30% of the catches in traps baited with the synthetic green budworm moth sex pheromone (only males). This suggested that the new PEAA lure had a trapping performance comparable with that of pheromone traps, which latter are used by farmers today. Consequently, the PEAA lure showed potential for future practical applications as a female-targeted lure for H. nubiferana. To our knowledge, this is the first well-documented report on the attraction of PEAA lure for a tortricid species other than codling moth.

“…A possible cause for this result is that the chemical components in the sex pheromone are common to several species of Lepidoptera (Hrudová, 2003) and thus, many species may be attracted to this pheromone in the wild. found that in Colombia, N. elegantalis was genetically differentiated in four main haplotypes by sequencing 103 individuals from several host plants.…”

Neoleucinodes elegantalis Guenée (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) represents the most damaging pest of the Solanaceae family. Current studies have demonstrated that the species has differentiated into four races according to variations in female genitalia, wing morphometrics and sequencing of the cytochrome Oxydase (CO1) mitochondrial gene. The number of males captured in Colombia and Ecuador were registered using traps baited with two sex pheromone: Neolegantol ® and P228. These pheromones were synthesized using natural female pheromones collected in Solanum lycopersicum L. plantations in Venezuela. In Colombia, the number of male catches was significantly higher for Neolegantol ® than for P228 and this number was significantly higher on S. lycopersicum followed by S. quitoense and S. betaceum. The haplotype net obtained with the CO1 gene produced two main clusters: one cluster was comprised by specimens from S. lycopersicum and S. quitoense plants (both with medium sized female genitalia) and the other cluster by specimens from S. betaceum (large sized genitalia). The Neolegantol® pheromone was also tested in Ecuador, however, insignificant number of males were attracted. Results suggest that pheromone composition or concentration, host biotypes and geographic location are relevant to monitor populations of N. elegantalis. Further studies of the species should concentrate on establishing the pheromone composition and concentration among the four biotypes.
