Hydrocarbons from males, females, and larvae of pecan weevil: Curculio caryae (Horn)

Hydrocarbons from males, females, and larvae of pecan weevil: Curculio caryae (Horn)

N V Mody et al. Lipids. 1975 Feb.

Abstract

As part of a program to identify as many as possible of the components of the pecan weevil, Curculio caryae (Horn), the hydrocarbons from males, females, and larvae were isolated by solvent extraction and column chromatography and subjected to gas lipuid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. n-Alkanes from C14-C32 in the larvae and unsaturated and branched chain hydrocarbons from C20-C32 in males and females were found. There are no significant differences between the hydrocarbons of the male and female pecan weevils.
