Abstract

The natural sex pheromone of the yellow rice borer, Scirpophaga incertulas is known to consist of 3 components: 16: Ald (Ⅰ), (Z)-9-16: Ald (Ⅱ) and (Z)-11-16: Ald (Ⅲ) by using single sex pheromone gland technique, high performance capillary CC, GC-MS, EAG, micro-chemical reaction as well as field trapping tests. Analysis of single sex pheromone gland showed that the precise ratio of the 3 components is 18.8 (Ⅰ): 27.1 (Ⅱ): 54.1 (Ⅲ) (%). The septura lure made according to the above precise blending showed strong attractancy in the field trapping tests. Maximun catch of a trap was 45 males/ day in the first generation in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The average catch per day was 15.8 males.
