Abstract

Mating of Sitotroga cerealella (Olivier) was disrupted by the synthetic sex pheromone, ( Z,E )-7,11-hexadecadien-1-ol acetate, in 3 different enclosed environments. The effectiveness of the pheromone as a disruptant depended on both population and dose. Higher doses were more effective than lower doses over a range of population densities, and all doses were most disruptive at low population densities.
