摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on specific areas of research that involve in-depth studies related to the practical use pheromones for insect control. The availability synthetic pheromone components leads problems in how formulate them economical usage control programs. monitoring traps relating trap catch population densities. Some knowledge and behavioral responses a certain questions additional minor quantitative qualitative changes blend affect responding insects. Knowledge opens way further projects physiological aspects its release, biosynthesis, genetics controlling these enzymic reactions. Studies receiving lead specificity relative sensitivities antennal receptor cells, receptors converge deutocerebrum transmit their input central olfactory neurons, factors affecting nervous system thresholds determine signal is perceived translated into action.
