1 Chemical cues involved in host location by Dastarcus helophoroides (Fairmaire) (Coleoptera: Bothrideridae), a parasitoid of Anoplophora glabripennis Motschulsky, Monochamus alternatus Hope, Massicus raddei (Blessig), Apriona germari (Hope), Apriona swainsoni (Hope) and Batocera horsfielde (Hope) in the family Cerambycidae, were investigated in a Y‐tube olfactometer. Responses of D. helophoroides adults toward odour sources from their host (M. raddei) and host tree (Quercus mongolicus Fisch. ex. Turcz.) were tested in either no‐choice or two‐way choice tests. Wood with larval tunnels and larvae frass were attractive to D. helophoroides. Both sexes showed attraction to wood with larval tunnels. 2 Volatile chemicals emitted from wood with larval tunnels and larval frass were collected on Porapak Q and analyzed by gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry. Several compounds identified from these sources, including α‐pinene, β‐pinene, Δ‐3‐carene, limonene and β‐myrcene, were tested against D. helophoroides in the same Y‐tube olfactometer. 3 The result showed that D. helophoroides adults were attracted to (R)‐(+)‐limonene, with or without the background odour from uninfested fresh wood. This may suggest that (R)‐(+)‐limonene is an important kairomone for this parasitic beetle. 4 Dose‐dependent response of D. helophoroides adults to (R)‐(+)‐limonene indicated that D. helophoroides adults showed significant attraction to (R)‐(+)‐limonene when release rates exceeded 2.08 μg/h in Y‐tube olfactometer tests. Moreover, significantly more A. glabripennis larvae were parasitized by D. helophoroides in the presence of R‐(+)‐limonene, relative to the control in cage experiments. 相似文献

Aims: To study the metabolic profile of Pseudomonas rhodesiae and Pseudomonas fluorescens in water–organic solvent systems using terpene substrates for both growth and biotransformation processes and to determine the aerobic or anaerobic status of these degradation pathways. Materials and Methods: Substrates from pinene (α‐pinene, α‐pinene oxide, β‐pinene, β‐pinene oxide, turpentine) and limonene (limonene, limonene‐1,2‐oxide, orange peel oil) families were tested. For the bioconversion, the terpene‐grown biomass was concentrated and used either as whole cells or as a crude enzymatic extract. Conclusion: Pseudomonas rhodesiae was the most suitable biocatalyst for the production of isonovalal from α‐pinene oxide and did not metabolize limonene. Pseudomonas fluorescens was a more versatile micro‐organism and metabolized limonene in two different ways. The first (anaerobic, cofactor‐independent, noninducible) allowed limonene elimination by synthesizing α‐terpineol. The second (aerobic, cofactor‐dependent) involved limonene‐1,2‐oxide as an intermediate for energy production through a β‐oxidation process. Significance and Impact of the Study: Enzymatic isomerization of β‐ to α‐pinene was described for the first time for both strains. Alpha‐terpineol production by P. fluorescens was very efficient and appeared as a promising alternative for the commercial production of this bioflavour. 相似文献

The composition of the essential oils isolated from twigs of ten Juniperus deltoides R.P . Adams populations from the east Adriatic coast was determined by GC‐FID and GC/MS analyses. Altogether, 169 compounds were identified, representing 95.6–98.4% of the total oil composition. The oils were dominated by monoterpenes (average content of 61.6%), which are characteristic oil components of species of the Juniperus section. Two monoterpenes, α‐pinene and limonene, were the dominant constituents, comprising on average 46.78% of the essential oils. Statistical methods were deployed to determine the diversity of the terpene classes and the common terpenes between the investigated populations. These statistical analyses revealed the existence of three chemotypes within all populations, i.e., a α‐pinene, limonene, and limonene/α‐pinene type. 相似文献

Influences of host volatiles on feeding behaviour of the Japanese pine sawyer, Monochamus alternatus 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Abstract: Choice and no‐choice feeding assays on the twigs of three host species demonstrated the following feeding preference sequence by Monochamus alternatus: Pinus massoniana > Cedrus deodara > Pinus thunbergii. There were significant differences in the concentrations of α‐pinene, camphene, d ‐limonene, β‐phellandrene, longifolene and β‐caryophyllene in volatiles emitted by twigs among the three species. We tested the effects of six monoterpenes (α‐pinene, β‐pinene, 3‐carene, myrcene, limonene and β‐caryophyllene) added to an artificial diet consisting of bark from P. thunbergii on consumption rates by M. alternatus. The addition of α‐pinene at all four concentrations 0.4, 1.2, 3.6 and 10.8 μl/ml resulted in increases of a twofold greater consumption rate than the control at a concentration of 3.6 μl/ml. Limonene inhibited diet consumption at concentrations >0.4 μl/ml. The concentration of α‐pinene in volatiles emitted by twigs was significantly higher for P. massoniana than for P. thunbergii, whereas the reverse was true for limonene. There were no differences for any of the other host components, suggesting that α‐pinene and limonene may play an important role in the adult's selection and acceptance of suitable and unsuitable feed host. Mixed compounds promoted the consumption of artificial diet at a concentration of 0.4 μl/ml, whereas consumption was inhibited at a concentration of 10.8 μl/ml. There were significant linear correlations (β‐pinene: r2 = 0.930, P < 0.05; myrcene: r2 = 0.933, P < 0.05) between the amount of diets consumed and diet concentrations of β‐pinene and myrcene. In conclusion, host volatile terpenes may stimulate or repel M. alternatus depending on terpene concentrations they encounter during initial feeding and then possibly inhibit further feeding activity once concentrations increase to threshold levels. 相似文献

The essential oils from needles, twigs, bark, wood, and cones of Pinus cembra were analyzed by GC‐FID, GC/MS, and 1H‐NMR spectroscopy. More than 130 compounds were identified. The oils differed in the quantitative composition. The principal components of the oil from twigs with needles were α‐pinene (36.3%), limonene (22.7%) and β‐phellandrene (12.0%). The needle oil was dominated by α‐pinene (48.4%), whereas in the oil from bark and in the oil from twigs without needles there were limonene (36.2% and 33.6%, resp.) and β‐phellandrene (18.8% and 17.1%, resp.). The main constituents of the wood oil as well as cone oil were α‐pinene (35.2% and 39.0%, resp.) and β‐pinene (10.4% and 18.9%, resp.). The wood oil and the cone oil contained large amounts of oxygenated diterpenes in comparison with needle, twig, and bark oils. 相似文献

Spruce budworm feeding and oviposition are stimulated by monoterpenes in white spruce epicuticular waxes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Monoterpenes, source of the distinctive odor of conifers, are generally considered plant defensive compounds. However, they are also known to act as long‐range insect attractants, as they are volatile and permeate forest airspaces. Moreover, they are lipid soluble and can be absorbed into plant epicuticular waxes. We test their role in short‐range host plant choice by both adult females and larvae of a folivorous forest pest (Choristoneura fumiferana). We conducted laboratory assays testing the responses of Eastern spruce budworm to an artificial monoterpene mix (α‐pinene, β‐pinene, limonene, myrcene) and to white spruce (Picea glauca) epicuticular waxes in closed arenas. Ovipositing females preferred filter paper discs treated with P. glauca waxes to controls, and preferred the waxes + monoterpenes treatment to waxes alone. However, females showed no preference between the monoterpene‐treated disc and the control when presented without waxes. Feeding larvae prefered wax discs to control discs. They also consumed discs treated with realistic monoterpene concentrations and wax preferentially over wax‐only discs, but showed no preference between extremely high monoterpene concentrations and wax‐only controls. In an insect‐free assay, P. glauca epicuticular wax decreased monoterpene volatilization. These results suggest that P. glauca waxes and realistic concentrations of monoterpenes are stimulatory to both egg‐laying females and feeding larvae, and that their effects are synergistic. 相似文献

The influence of natural plant odours on the locomotory behaviour of 3rd‐instar larvae of Costelytra zealandica (White) was studied by observing their movement in glass‐sided test chambers. Through an analysis of the paths followed by individual larvae in single‐option choice‐chamber tests it was possible to evaluate the responses of the larvae to different plant materials. The odour of fresh young perennial ryegrass (Loliumperenne) root was more attractive to the insects than was that of older plants. Larvae were also more strongly attracted to the root of lucerne (Medicago sativa), Lotus pedunculatus, red clover (Trifolium pratense), and white clover (T. repens) than to that of perennial ryegrass. The possible role of volatile chemical factors in plant resistance to grass grub attack is discussed. 相似文献

The response of whitespotted sawyer beetle, Monochamus s. scutellatus, to pheromones of the bark beetles, Dendroctonus rufipennis, Ips pini, Ips perturbatus and Ips latidens, and α‐pinene was investigated with field‐trapping experiments. Traps baited with ipsenol caught significantly more M. s. scutellatus than unbaited traps, whereas the other compounds (ipsdienol, ipsdienol plus lanierone, ipsdienol plus cis‐verbenol or frontalin) did not. Combining α‐pinene with ipsdienol, ipsdienol plus lanierone, ipsdienol plus cis‐verbenol or with frontalin did not increase captures of M. s. scutellatus above those of α‐pinene alone, whereas the combination of α‐pinene with ipsenol did. When α‐pinene was combined with ipsdienol or frontalin, trap captures of Monochamus mutator were significantly higher than unbaited traps or traps baited with frontalin but were not higher than traps baited with α‐pinene. The combination of ipsenol and α‐pinene was significantly more attractive to Monochamus notatus than unbaited traps; however, traps containing either ipsenol or α‐pinene were as attractive as the combination. None of the species of Buprestidae (Buprestis maculativentris and Chalcophora virginiensis) responded significantly to any of the treatments. 相似文献

This study aimed to characterize the chemical composition of Aloysia polystachia, Acantholippia seriphioides, Schinus molle, Solidago chilensis, Lippia turbinata, Minthostachys mollis, Buddleja globosa, and Baccharis latifolia essential oils (EOs), and to evaluate their antibacterial activities and their capacity to provoke membrane disruption in Paenibacillus larvae, the bacteria that causes the American Foulbrood (AFB) disease on honey bee larvae. The relationship between the composition of the EOs and these activities on P. larvae was also analyzed. Monoterpenes were the most abundant compounds in all EOs. All EOs showed antimicrobial activity against P. larvae and disrupted the cell wall and cytoplasmic membrane of P. larvae provoking the leakage of cytoplasmic constituents (with the exception of B. latifolia EO). While, the EOs’ antimicrobial activity was correlated most strongly to the content of pulegone, carvone, (Z)‐β‐ocimene, δ‐cadinene, camphene, terpinen‐4‐ol, elemol, β‐pinene, β‐elemene, γ‐cadinene, α‐terpineol, and bornyl acetate; the volatiles that better explained the membrane disruption were carvone, limonene, cis‐carvone oxide, pentadecane, trans‐carvyl acetate, trans‐carvone oxide, trans‐limonene oxide, artemisia ketone, trans‐carveol, thymol, and γ‐terpinene (positively correlated) and biciclogermacrene, δ‐2‐carene, verbenol, α‐pinene, and α‐thujene (negatively correlated). The studied EOs are proposed as natural alternative means of control for the AFB disease. 相似文献

Baccharis is a widespread genus belonging to the Asteraceae family that includes almost 400 species exclusively from the Americas. Even when studied in detail, the taxonomic classification among species from this genus is not yet fully defined. Within the framework of our study of the volatile composition of the Baccharis genus, four species (B. trimera, B. milleflora, B. tridentata, and B. uncinella) were collected from the ‘Campos de Cima da Serra’ highlands of the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul. The aerial parts were dried and extracted by the simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) procedure. This is the first time that SDE has been applied to obtain and compare the volatile‐extract composition in the Baccharis genus. Characterization of the volatile extracts allowed the identification of 180 peaks with many coeluting components; these latter being detailed for the first time for this genus. The multivariate statistical analyses allowed separating the volatile extracts of the four populations of Baccharis into two separate groups. The first one included the B. milleflora, B. trimera, and B. uncinella volatile extracts. The three species showed a high degree of similarity in their volatile composition, which was characterized by the presence of high contents of sesquiterpene compounds, in particular of spathulenol. The second group comprised the extract of B. tridentata, which contained α‐pinene, β‐pinene, limonene, and (E)‐β‐ocimene in high amounts. 相似文献

The essential oils from the leaves and rhizomes of Alpinia pahangensis Ridl ., collected from Pahang, Peninsular Malaysia, were obtained by hydrodistillation, and their chemical compositions were determined by GC and GC/MS analyses. The major components of the rhizome oil were γ‐selinene (11.60%), β‐pinene (10.87%), (E,E)‐farnesyl acetate (8.65%), and α‐terpineol (6.38%), while those of the leaf oil were β‐pinene (39.61%), α‐pinene (7.55%), and limonene (4.89%). The investigation of the antimicrobial activity of the essential oils using the broth microdilution technique revealed that the rhizome oil of A. pahangensis inhibited five Staphylococcus aureus strains with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values between 0.08 and 0.31 μg/μl, and four selected fungi with MIC values between 1.25 and 2.50 μg/μl. 相似文献

The composition of 109 samples of essential oil isolated from the needles of Juniperus communis ssp. alpina growing wild in Corsica was investigated by GC (in combination with retention indices), GC/MS, and 13C‐NMR. Forty‐four compounds accounting for 86.7–96.7% of the oil were identified. The oils consisted mainly of monoterpene hydrocarbons, in particular, limonene (9.2–53.9%), β‐phellandrene (3.7–25.2%), α‐pinene (1.4–33.7%), and sabinene (0.1–33.6%). The 109 oil compositions were submitted to k‐means partitioning and principal component analysis, which allowed the distinction of two groups within the oil samples. The composition of the major group (92% of the samples) was dominated by limonene and β‐phellandrene, while the second group contained mainly sabinene beside limonene and β‐phellandrene. 相似文献

In this study control of spread by insect vectors of non‐persistent Lily symptomless virus and Lily mottle virus in lily, Tulip breaking virus in tulip, Iris mild mosaic virus, Narcissus latent virus and Iris severe mosaic virus in bulbous iris, and semi‐persistent Dahlia mosaic virus and persistent Tomato spotted wilt virus in dahlia has been evaluated with weekly sprays of mineral oil, beta‐pinene emulsion, polydimethylsiloxane emulsions and pyrethroid insecticide. In lily, beta‐pinene in ‘Wilt Prufgave’ 40% reduction of virus spread. In 1995–97 deltamethrin in ‘Decisgave’ 22–58% reduction. Deltamethrin added to sprays of mineral oil ‘Luxan oil H’ and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), e.g. in ‘Dow Corning 36’, efficiently improved control efficacy. The latter was also observed in tulip and dahlia. Mineral oil and deltamethrin gave best control by 81–97% reduction of virus spread at standard spray volumes (6.25 litre ha?1+0.4 litre ha1). ‘Luxan oil H’ at 3.125 litre ha?1 with deltamethrin gave 69–91% control. Efficacy of control by polydimethylsiloxane in ‘Dow Corning 36’ was superior to ‘Luxan anti‐foam’. ‘Dow Corning 36’ with deltamethrin (7+0.4 litre ha?1) gave satisfactory control (68–87%). In tulip, the control by ‘Dow Corning 36’/deltamethrin sprays proved satisfactory compared with ‘Luxan oil H’/‘Decis’‐sprays. In bulbous iris the efficacy of tested PDMS‐brands was clearly different in favour of ‘Dow Corning 36’. In dahlia mineral‐oil and PDMS‐sprays gave some control of semi‐persistent DaMV (16–24%). This ranged at higher level (65–80%) when deltamethrin was added to the spray mixture. Similar trends were observed in the control of persistent TSWV. The effect of polydimethylsiloxane emulsions in the spectrum of virus‐control agents is described for the first time. The effect of PDMS compared with that of mineral oils and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides is discussed with respect to efficacy, mode of action to prevent virus transmission and possible reduction of bulb weights in vegetatively propagated bulb crops. 相似文献

Mints are the most popular economic and traditional herbs. The aim of this article was chemical characterization of volatile compounds from wild populations of Mentha aquatica, M. arvensis, M. longifolia, M. microphylla, M. pulegium, M. spicata, M.×dumetorum, M.×gentillis and M.×verticillata, as well as cultivated samples of M. spicata, M.×piperita ‘Alba’ and M.×piperita ‘Crispa’. Analyses were performed directly from dried aerial parts (herb) of collected samples by headspace gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry. In total 54 compounds were detected, representing from 89.99 % to 99.66 % of volatile fractions of all investigated samples. The recorded volatiles were primarily monoterpene hydrocarbons and oxygenated monoterpenes, while oxygenated aromatic monoterpenes, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons and aliphatic compounds were present in lower concentrations in analyzed samples. The major components were linalool, limonene, 1,8‐cineol, α‐terpinyl acetate, pulegone, β‐pinene and menthol. The cluster analysis revealed five main groups or chemotypes according to qualitative and quantitative content of volatiles, as well as similarities among samples. These results contribute to the knowledge on the mints chemistry in Pannonian Plain and Balkan Peninsula. 相似文献

The volatile compounds from Peucedanum cervaria (Lap. ) L. were obtained by hydrodistillation (HD) and headspace solid‐phase microextraction techniques (HS‐SPME), and then analyzed by GC/MS methods. The composition of samples from a botanical garden was compared with plants collected in the wild. The main compounds of the essential oils of P. cervaria were identified as α‐pinene, sabinene, and β‐pinene (more than 80% of oil). The content of β‐myrcene, limonene+β‐phellandrene, and germacrene D was higher than 1%. The in vitro antibacterial activity of the essential oil was evaluated by the agar dilution method against ten reference strains of Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. 相似文献

Monoterpenes are a diverse class of compounds with applications as flavors and fragrances, pharmaceuticals and more recently, jet fuels. Engineering biosynthetic pathways for monoterpene production in microbial hosts has received increasing attention. However, monoterpenes are highly toxic to many microorganisms including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a widely used industrial biocatalyst. In this work, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for S. cerevisiae was determined for five monoterpenes: β‐pinene, limonene, myrcene, γ‐terpinene, and terpinolene (1.52, 0.44, 2.12, 0.70, 0.53 mM, respectively). Given the low MIC for all compounds tested, a liquid two‐phase solvent extraction system to alleviate toxicity during fermentation was evaluated. Ten solvents were tested for biocompatibility, monoterpene distribution, phase separation, and price. The solvents dioctyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate, isopropyl myristate, and farnesene showed greater than 100‐fold increase in the MIC compared to the monoterpenes in a solvent‐free system. In particular, the MIC for limonene in dibutyl phthalate showed a 702‐fold (308 mM, 42.1 g L?1 of limonene) improvement while cell viability was maintained above 90%, demonstrating that extractive fermentation is a suitable tool for the reduction of monoterpene toxicity. Finally, we estimated that a limonane to farnesane ratio of 1:9 has physicochemical properties similar to traditional Jet‐A aviation fuel. Since farnesene is currently produced in S. cerevisiae, its use as a co‐product and extractant for microbial terpene‐based jet fuel production in a two‐phase system offers an attractive bioprocessing option.

In a study at Appleby Research Orchard, Nelson, examination of the fruit from mature ‘Delicious’ apple trees sprayed with ryania over 5 years showed that less than 10% of 5th‐instar larvae of the codling moth (Laspeyresia pomonella) seeking cocooning sites originated from fruit on the ground. In 1972 and 1973 the survival of such larvae was studied by tagging with cobalt‐58 and releasing them beneath mature trees. In both years about 25 % of the tagged larvae returned to the tree to spin cocoons. Larvae released on bare ground 0–1 m from the tree trunks were more successful than those released in the sward 1–2 m away. Once on the trees, most larvae spun cocoons beneath exfoliating bark on the lower parts of the leaders and the trunk. Fifty‐two percent of the cocoons located were formed on the ground, and overwintering mortality of these was estimated to be near 100%. The pre‐cocooning mortality of larvae released on the ground was similar to that of larvae released on the trees in the same year. It was concluded that larvae from windfalls could be ignored in estimating 5th‐instar larval mortality of codling moth on ‘Delicious’ trees. On the cultivars ‘Dunn's Favourite’ and ‘Cox's Orange Pippin’, however, the higher percentage of larvae in windfalls made their inclusion in mortality estimates essential. 相似文献

This article reports the chemical composition of the essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of male and female H. scabrum fresh leaves. The essential oils, HSMO and HSFO, respectively, were analyzed by GC/MS and GC‐FID. A total of 93 components were detected, accounting for 94.8% and 95.3% of HSMO and HSFO, respectively. The prevalent constituents of HSMO were pinocarvone (13.1%), d ‐germacren‐4‐ol (12.6%), 1,8‐cineole (10.8%), α‐pinene (6.4%), and β‐pinene (4.8%), whereas the major components of HSFO were 1,8‐cineole (20.5%), linalool (16.5%), α‐pinene (15.0%), β‐pinene (6.4%), and sabinene (6.3%). The different enantiomeric distribution of β‐pinene, sabinene, limonene, linalool in the two oils, was determined. The non‐volatile esters of p‐coumaric and ferulic acids with borneol ( 1 and 4 ), cis‐chrysanthenol ( 2 and 5 ), and cis‐pinocarveol ( 3 and 6 ) were identified in the leaves after basic hydrolysis and analysis of the NMR spectra of the free acids, and GC/MS spectra of the monoterpene alcohols, respectively. Compounds 2 , 3 , 5 , and 6 have been found in nature for the first time. These findings demonstrated that, from a chemical point of view, male and female individuals of H. scabrum collected in Ecuador seem quite differentiated between each other and from samples of the same species growing in Bolivia and in Peru. 相似文献

The chemical composition of 48 leaf oil samples isolated from individual plants of Cleistopholis patens (Benth .) Engl. et Diels harvested in four Ivoirian forests was investigated by GC‐FID (determination of retention indices), GC/MS, and 13C‐NMR analyses. The main components identified were β‐pinene (traces–59.1%), sabinene (traces–54.2%), (E)‐β‐caryophyllene (0.3–39.3%), linalool (0.1–38.5%), (E)‐β‐ocimene (0.1–33.2%), germacrene D (0.0–33.1%), α‐pinene (0.1–32.3%), and germacrene B (0–21.2%). The 48 oil compositions were submitted to hierarchical clustering and principal components analyses, which allowed the distinction of three groups within the oil samples. The oil composition of the major group (Group I, 33 samples) was dominated by (E)‐β‐caryophyllene and linalool. The oils of Group II (eight samples) contained mainly β‐pinene and α‐pinene, while those of Group III (seven samples) were dominated by sabinene, limonene, and β‐phellandrene. Moreover, the compositions of the Ivoirian C. patens leaf oils differed from those of Nigerian and Cameroonian origins. 相似文献
