  1. 1. Stress Related Emissions of Norway Spruce Plants

    Författare :Marie Pettersson; Anna-Karin Borg-Karlson; Torkel Berglund; Åsa Emmer; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; volatiles; terpenes; green leaf volatiles; stress response; nepetalactone; SPME; Picea abies; Hylobius abietis; Cinara pillicornis; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The interactions between plants and insects are mediated by volatile molecules. Plants respond to stress by biosynthesis of chemical substances which can deter invading insects or pathogens. Some of these substances are volatile and are emitted to the surroundings and may attract or repel insects. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Chemical defence in Norway spruce

    Författare :Marie Danielsson; Anna-Karin Borg-Karlson; Anders Backlund; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; volatiles; terpenes; green leaf volatiles; stilbenes; stress response; nepetalactone; Picea abies; Hylobius abietis; Cinara pilicornis; Oligonychus ununguis; Heterobasidion annosum; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Norway spruce (Picea abies) responds to stress by biosynthesis of chemical substances, which can deter invading insects or pathogens. Some of these substances are volatile and can be emitted to the surroundings while others are accumulated within the tree. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Odour-mediated nectar foraging in the silver Y moth, Autographa gamma

    Författare :Dainius Plepys; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; predation risk; Noctuidae; Lepidoptera; flight tunnel; GC-EAD; single sensillum; sprayer; ultrasound; floral volatiles; attraction; foraging; mate-finding; lilac aldehydes; olfactory receptor neurones; Ecology; Ekologi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : It is well established that floral odours play a significant role in the nectar foraging behaviour in Lepidoptera and other insect orders. Floral odour may elicit searching, alighting and feeding behaviours alone or in concert with visual stimuli. LÄS MER
