Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The sesquiterpenestrans-caryophyllene and germacrene have been detected in the native scents of male and female individuals of the Colorado beetleLeptinotarsa decemlineata Say by gas-chromato-mass-spectral analysis.trans-Caryophyllene has also been detected in the volatiles emitted by leaves of the potatoSolanum tuberosum L. which indicates its role as food attractant of the Colorado beetle.
