| Abstract: | "By the methods of headspace solid-phase micro extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and using Y-type olfactometer, this paper identified the volatiles from six tomato varieties (Zheza 809, Zheza 203, Hezuo 903, Kate No. 1, Huangtuoyan, and Jinfei), and bio-assayed the olfactory responses of female B-biotype Bemisia tabaci to the tomato plants and their released volatiles. Thirteen kinds of compounds in the volatiles collected from the six tomato varieties were identified, among which, terpenoids were the main components. However, the compositions and contents of the volatiles differed with tomato varieties. (+)-3-carene and beta-caryophyllene showed stronger repellency than other terpenoids to B-type B. tabaci. B-type B. tabaci showed the lowest preference to the tomato varieties such as Zheza 809 and Zheza 203 which contained more kinds of terpenoids and had higher proportion of terpenoids in the volatiles, and showed the greatest preference to the varieties like Huangtuoyan and Jinfei which contained fewer kinds of terpenoids and had lower proportion of terpenoids in the volatiles" |
