Abstract
The chemicals cis (Z) and trans (E)11-tetradecenyl acetate (11–14:Ac), trans 11-tetradecen-1-ol (E11–14:OH) and trans 11-tetradecenal (E11–14:Ald) were isolated from unmated female Choristoneura orae Freeman and shown to be highly attractive when used as lures in sticky traps. The identification of these components of the sex pheromone facilitates the separation of C. orae from other Pinaceae-feeding Choristoneura in the same area.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
