Abstract

The turnip aphid,Lipaphis (Hyadaphis) erysimi, responds weakly to (E)-β-farnesene, the main component of the alarm pheromone, but the response is substantially increased by incorporating plant-derived isothiocyanates, identified in aphid volatiles by coupled gas chromatography-single-cell recording.
