volatiles of solena amplexicaulis (lam.) gandhi leaves influencing attraction of two generalist insect herbivores.epilachna vigintioctopunctata fabr. (coleoptera: coccinellidae) and aulacophora foveicollis lucas (coleoptera: chrysomelidae) are important pests of solena amplexicaulis (lam.) gandhi (cucurbitaceae), commonly known as creeping cucumber. the profiles of volatile organic compounds from undamaged plants, plants after 48 hr continuous feeding of adult females of either e. vigintioctopunctata or a. foveicollis, by adults of both species, and after mechanical damaging were identified and quantified b ...201627592244
identification of triterpenoid feeding deterrent of red pumpkin beetles (aulacophora foveicollis) frommomordica charantia.the triterpenoids isolated from the leaves ofmomordica charantia linn (bitter gourd) were found to elicit feeding-deterrent activity against red pumpkin beetles (aulacophora foveicollis lucas). the most abundant triterpenoid which deterred feeding was identified as momordicine ii, 23-o-β-glucopyranoside of 3,7,23-trihydroxycucurbita-5,24-dien-19-al. a concentration of 3200μg/ml and above of the triterpenoids caused significant reduction of feeding by red pumpkin beetles in in vitro bioassay expe ...198724302337

alkanes in flower surface waxes of momordica cochinchinensis influence attraction to aulacophora foveicollis lucas (coleoptera: chrysomelidae).extraction, thin-layer chromatography, and gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry analyses revealed 15 alkanes representing 97.14% of the total alkanes in the surface waxes of momordica cochinchinensis spreng flowers. nonacosane was the prevailing alkane followed by hexatriacontane, nonadecane, heptacosane, and hentriacontane, accounting for 39.08%, 24.24%, 13.52%, 6.32%, and 5.12%, respectively. the alkanes from flower surface waxes followed by a synthetic mixture of alkanes mimicking alkane ...201323949856
