1. Preference of Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae) for volatiles of Bt maize induced by multiple herbivory
ABSTRACT Plant indirect induced defenses against herbivores are characterized by the production of plant volatiles that to attract natural enemies. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the attack of the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae or the multiple herbivory of T. urticae together with the fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda are

2. Petiveria alliacea, a plant used in Afro-Brazilian smoke rituals, triggers pulmonary inflammation in rats
Abstract Petiveria alliacea L., Phytolaccaceae, a plant used in Afro-Brazilian religious smoke rituals is reported to have "harmonic properties" (anxiolytic effect) by ethnobotanical survey. In the present work, we analyzed the chemical composition of volatiles produced by leaves of P. alliacea, using headspace gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and its po

3. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Emitted by Ilex paraguariensis Plants are Affected by the Herbivory of the Lepidopteran Thelosia camina and the Coleopteran Hedypathes betulinus
The profile of volatiles emitted by Ilex paraguariensis, leaves of which are used to produce a popular South American tea, were identified and compared among treatments. Headspace collections were performed for 24-72 hours for control, mechanical damage (MD), herbivory by larvae of Thelosia camina (TC), and by adults of Hedypathes betulinus (HB). Based on ga

4. Diurnal Pattern of Leaf, Flower and Fruit Specific Ambient Volatiles above an Oil Palm Plantation in Pará State, Brazil
Oil palm plantations are rapidly expanding in the tropics because of insatiable global demand for fruit oil to be used in food, biofuels and cosmetics. Here we show that three tissue-specific volatiles can be quantified in ambient air above an African-American hybrid oil palm plantation in Brazil and linked photosynthesis (isoprene), floral scent (estragole)

5. (1R,2S,6R)-Papayanol, Aggregation Pheromone of the Guava Weevil, Conotrachelus psidii
Comparative GC/MS analysis of airborne volatiles produced by males and females of the guava weevil Conotrachelus psidii (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Molytinae) showed the presence of a malespecific electroantennographically active compound identified as (1R,2S,6R)-2-hydroxymethyl-2,6- dimethyl-3-oxabicyclo[4.2.0]octane (papayanol). Release of this compound wa

6. Noctuidae-induced plant volatiles: current situation and prospects
Noctuids are phytophagous lepidopterans with some species causing significant damage to agriculture. The host plants, in turn, have developed defense mechanisms to cope with them, for instance chemical defenses. In this study we review the literature on plant volatiles induced by noctuids, and discuss the methodologies used to induce the production of volati

7. Gestão da qualidade aplicada à melhoria do processo de produção de carvão vegetal / Quality management applied to improve the production process of charcoal
The forestry sector contributes significantly to the Brazilian Gross Domestic Product (GDP), as well as to generate employment and income. The research for this sector brought numerous technological advances in areas such as forestry, plant breeding, soil management and water resources. However, few studies have studied management, responsible for increasing

8. Leaf and root volatiles produced by tissue cultures of Alpinia zerumbet (pers.) Burtt & Smith under the influence of different plant growth regulators
Volatiles produced by plantlets of Alpinia zerumbet were obtained by means of simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE). The effects of indole-3-acetic acid, kinetin, thidiazuron and 6-benzylaminopurine on leaf and root volatile composition obtained by tissue cultures were investigated. A higher content of b-pinene and a lower content of sabinene were obser

Hyptis fruticosa Salzm. ex Benth. (Alecrim do campo) is an aromatic plant widely used in folk medicine due to its therapeutic properties. Therefore the aim of this work was to undertake botanical, chemical, ecophysiological, and pharmacological studies. The botanical investigations observed and analyzed information about morphological, physiological, and env

10. Response of the predatory mite Phytoseiulus macropilis (Banks) to volatiles produced by strawberry plants in response to attack by Tetranychid mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae: Tetranychidae)
The attack of phytophagous mites may induce plants to produce volatiles, which in turn may attract predators. The occurrence of multiple phytophagous infestations on plants may influence predator response. In this paper, we investigated whether the attraction of the predatory mite Phytoseiulus macropilis (Banks) to phytophagous-infested plants would change w

11. Effect of conspecific and plant volatiles of Murraya paniculata (L.) JACK, Psidium guajava L. and Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck on the behavior OF Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) / Efeito dos coespecíficos e voláteis das plantas Murraya paniculata (L.) Jack, Psidium guajava L. e Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck sobre o comportamento de Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera:Psyllidae)
The agro-ecosystems consist of complex trophic relationships between plants, herbivores and their natural enemies. It is known that the majority of plants can produce volatiles compounds used as chemical signals by different groups of insects. These compounds can be produced constitutively in healthy plants, i.e., without induction. In other hand, the produc

12. Expressão gênica e voláteis induzidos pela herbivoria de Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera:Noctuidae) em milho, Zea mays L. (Poaceae) / Gene expression and volatile compounds induced by herbivory of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in corn, Zea mays L. (Poaceae)
Em resposta aos danos ocasionados por insetos, as plantas emitem voláteis que atraem os inimigos naturais desses herbívoros. Embora essa relação tritrófica venha sendo intensamente estudada, muitos mecanismos envolvidos nesta interação ainda permanecem inexplorados. Dentre os compostos voláteis induzidos por herbivoria e emitidos pelas plantas, os te
