Tracking the sex pheromone of codling moth against a background of host volatiles with an electronic nose
Mating disruption is now widely used in apple growing regions where control of codling moth is difficult due to insecticide resistance. This strategy comprises the slow release of pheromone from controlled delivery dispensers placed on the crop field with the aim to attract and/or confuse males impe...
