Abstract:"(E)-12-Tetradecenyl acetate (E12-14ratioOAc), (Z)-12-tetradecenyl acetate (Z12-143nOAc), and tetradecanyl acetate (14ratioOAc) were extracted and identified as major chemical components from female tips of the Asian corn borer,Ostrinia furnacalis (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in Taiwan, with a combined wash ratio of 48ratio37ratio15 and an individual female ratio of 45ratio39ratio16. The average amount ofE12-,Z12-14ratioOAc and 14ratioOAc in each female gland was 6.6+/-4.6, 5.8+/-3.5, and 2.4+/-1.7 ng/female, respectively. The mixture of these three synthetic chemicals not only gave strong activities in male antennae but also could catch significantly more males than virgin females in field-trapping tests. The field test also showed no significant difference in trapping ability among the three-component Taiwan formulations, the two-component Taiwan formulation (Z12-14ratioOAc andZ1214ratioOAc, 53ratio47), and the Japan formulation (Z12-14ratio OAc andE 12-14ratioOAc, 3:2)"
