Behavioral responses of the pinewood nematode to terpenes

Behavioral responses of the pinewood nematode to terpenes. Tominaga, Yasuhira; Yamamoto, Masayuki; Kuwahara, Yasumasa; Sugawara, Ryozo (Inst. Appl. Biochem., Univ. Tsukuba, Sakura 305, Japan). Agric. Biol. Chem., 48(2), 519-20 (English) 1984. CODEN: ABCHA6. ISSN: 0002-1369. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 5 (Agrochemical Bioregulators) Behavioral responses of Botrytis cinerea to 26 terpenes were evaluated. Abietic acid [99-87-6] and phytol [150-86-7] were attractive at 10-5 M, followed by b-myrcene [470-82-6] and geraniol [106-24-1], which were active at 10-4 M. Nerol [106-25-2] was attractive at 10-3 M. On the other hand, b-pinene [127-91-3], citronellol [106-22-9], isoborneol [124-76-5], p-cymene [99-87-6] and d-camphoric acid [124-83-4] exhibited repellent activity, with threshold levels of 10-3 M. Between stereoisomeric pairs, geraniol and isoborneol were resp. more active than nerol and borneol [507-70-0]. Farnesol [4602-84-0] was lethal at 10-3 M. 470-82-6 and 123-35-3 are just another two chemicals used in this study. No significant effects could be detected for other terpenes. .
