Abstract

Lures for a monitoring system based on sex attractant trapping of Agrotis segetum males were elaborated for Israel and Germany. Various mixtures of (Z)-5-aecenyl acetate, (Z)-7-dodecenyl acetate, (Z)-9-dodecenyl acetate, (Z)-9-tetradecenyl acetate, decyl acetate and dodecyl acetate were tested in 20 different blends. From comparison of all the trap catches a four-component lure consisting of (Z)-5-decenyl, (Z)-7-dodecenyl, (Z)-9-tetradecenyl and dodecyl acetate is recommended for monitoring of A. segetum in both countries.
