“…Sco present in S. elongella are structurally found in other lepidopteran species (Bawin et al, 2017; Faucheux, 1985, 1989, 1999; Li et al, 2018; Roh et al, 2016; Santos et al, 2019; Sun et al, 2011; Zhang et al, 2019). These sensilla are responsible for olfactory function in C. partellus (Hansson, 1995), H. nebulella (Faucheux, 1991), and O. nubilalis (Cornford et al, 1973; Hallberg et al, 1994) and possibly sensitive to plant volatiles (Pophof et al, 2005).…”

Stenachroia elongella is an important pest of maize in Meghalaya, India. To understand the roles of sensory organs in the biological behaviors of this insect, we determined the structure and distribution of sensilla found on the antenna of both male and female S. elongella by scanning electron microscope. The antenna of both sexes is a filiform type, and the overall length of the female antenna is significantly longer than the male antenna. In both sexes, seven types and two subtypes of antennal sensilla are identified; sensilla trichodea, sensilla chaetica, sensilla styloconica, sensilla coeloconica, sensilla auricillica (I, II), sensilla squamiformia and Böhm sensilla. No sexual dimorphism on the specific occurrence of sensilla is observed. Probable functions are discussed based on their external morphology. These results would be helpful for further studies on TEM investigations, electrophysiological recordings, and behavioral studies. Research Highlights Seven types and two subtypes of antennal sensilla were observed in both male and female Stenachroia elongella. Morphology and distribution of the antennal sensilla were discussed. Sexual dimorphism was observed on the overall length of the antenna where the female antenna is longer than the male antenna. No sexual dimorphism was observed on specific occurrences of antennal sensilla.

“…These responses are directly linked to chemical perceptions of various compounds present in the oil. They bind to odour receptor proteins in antennal sensilla, triggering specific behavioural responses (Schiestl & Marion-Poll 2002;Cribb & Merritt 2013;Li et al 2016;Wee et al 2016;Santos et al 2019). In the case of Alabama argillacea, three constituents of M. spicata oil showed an activity associated with antennae: (E)-β-caryophyllene, carvone and limonene.…”

“…Among sustainable practices, semiochemicals play an important role in pest management (Zarbin & Rodrigues 2009;Cui & Zhu 2016;Magalhães et al 2019). These substances are responsible for interspecific and intraspecific communication between species by means of chemical signals that are detected by antennal sensilla (Wee et al 2016;Santos et al 2019). Experimentally, these stimuli can be detected by gas chromatography coupled to electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD).…”

Oviposition behaviour and electrophysiological responses of Alabama argillacea (Hübner, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) to essential oils and chemical compounds

Alabama argillacea (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) is a cotton pest. It is considered the most important defoliator species. It is commonly controlled using non-selective synthetic insecticides. However, they cause adverse effects to the environment. Thus, there is a need for more sustainable forms of management. In this case, essential oils may be a promising alternative. They have proven effects against countless agricultural pests. However, there is still few information on the effects of essential oils against A. argillacea. The present work aims to evaluate the deterrent activity of essential oils of Mentha spicata, Litsea cubeba, Melaleuca alternifolia and Juniperus virginiana on the oviposition of A. argillacea and identify which compounds of these oils are responsible for this action. Oviposition bioassays were performed to test oils. Gas chromatography coupled with electroantennography (GC-EAD) was performed to identify constituents detected by A. argillacea. In oviposition bioassays, only the oil of M. spicata showed activity against A. argillacea. GC-EAD analyses of this oil revealed that three compounds elicited visible antennal responses, namely, limonene, carvone and (E)-β-caryophyllene. Bioassays testing these three compounds showed that only limonene elicited oviposition deterrence against A. argillacea. Hence, the findings suggest that the essential oil of M. spicata and, more specially, limonene may contribute to a more sustainable management of this important pest of cotton.
