Several authors have suggested that edible plants could avoid herbivory by mimicking olfactory cues of toxic plants. However, very few studies have been carried out to test this hypothesis. The aims of the present study were to identify the volatiles of three clover species and to test whether a species lacking chemical defences, such as red clover, could avoid being grazed by rabbits by mimicking the volatiles of the cyanogenic white clover. Two main volatiles were identified in all three clover species, and a further two volatiles were present in white clover only. Rabbits presented with a choice between white clover, red clover and red clover sprayed with white clover extract ate significantly more red clover than white or white-flavoured red clover. The results suggest that the volatiles of toxic plants could be used and exploited as a source of natural, safe and effective repellents to control the impact of pest herbivores on plants. 相似文献

Captive starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) and house sparrows (Passer domesticus) were given choices between untreated turkey crumbs, and similar food treated with one of five chemical repellents (quinine sulphate, methiocarb, dinol sulphite, TS-69 and tannic acid), with or without the addition of a blue dye. All birds avoided the treated food to about the same extent, although starlings showed greater aversion to tannic acid when it was coloured. Sparrows developed aversions to tannic acid and TS-69 more quickly if the food was coloured than if it were not. Birds of both species avoided the blue-colured food even when it was not paired with a repellent; this prevented measurements of the persistence of colour aversions once the repellents were omitted. The implications of these results are discussed in relation to the use of added colour cues to enhance the effects of chemical repellents to protect crops from bird pests. 相似文献

The palatability to captive, mostly laboratory-bred, Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) of cereal-based baits containing 0.02 g kg-1 brodifacoum, with and without bird-repellent additives, was compared in a no-choice experimental design. Methyl anthranilate (25 g kg-1), dimethyl anthranilate (25 g kg-1) and cinnamamide (2.5 g kg-1) reduced bait consumption by the rats, but all except one rat ate enough bait to receive a lethal dose. Cinnamamide (1 g kg-1), ortho-aminoacetophenone (0.1 g kg-1) and tannic acid (20 g kg-1) did not reduce bait consumption and all rats died after eating baits. The concentration of cinnamamide palatable to rats has only a low and short-lived repellency to birds, so it does not warrant further investigation. However, ortho-aminoacetophenone and tannic acid should now be field-tested for palatability to all three rat species in New Zealand and for repellency to native New Zealand birds. 相似文献

Mountain beaver (Aplodontia rufa) damage to trees in the Pacific Northwest is economically serious. At present, few strategies are available to control damage, and new chemical repellents are being sought. Samples of two preferred plants, Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and salal (Galtheria shallon), were treated with mink urine, coyote urine, o-aminoacetophenone, or denatonium benzoate and presented to mountain beavers. All treatments reduced clipping (p < 0.05) of salal, but mink and coyote urines were most effective. Mink and coyote urines were the only treatments to significantly reduce clipping (p < 0.05) of Douglas fir. 相似文献

Avian repellents derived from natural products and human food flavorants may be less expensive to register under United States environmental pesticide registration requirements. However, one difficulty faced by workers attempting to target repellents for development is the need to screen large numbers of compounds for activity, as well as consideration of formulation and environmental constraints. In this study, we compare the bird repellent activity of aldehyde-based human food additives and compare the levels of activity with our previously elucidated model for structure–activity relationships (SAR) for bird repellents. We find that a previously elucidated SAR model for identifying acetophenone and anthranilate bird repellents is applicable to predicting the activity of aromatic aldehyde flavorants as well. In particular, of the nine flavorants tested, four, benzaldehyde, cinnamaldehyde, o-tolualdehyde, and o-anisaldehyde, warrant further consideration as bird repellents.

川楝果核浸提物对赤拟谷盗的忌避作用研究 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
本文研究了川楝(Melia toosenda)果核浸提物对赤拟谷盗(Triboliumcastanerum Herbat)的忌避作用。结果表明,500ppm 浸提物处理后40天的忌避率仍达50%以上。50%忌避率浓度,甲醇浸提物为12.1ppm,而石油醚的为20.9ppm。忌避率的高低与处理后的时间呈显著负相关,与药剂浓度呈极显著正相关。 相似文献
