chilonis strains and
kairomones indicated that the combination of Strain 15 and hexacosane (0.1%) was most effective and registered highest egg parasitization (36.6%), followed by the combination of Strain 15 and tricosane (0.1%).
"One of the things that's really new here is that this is a generalized predator
kairomone that's volatile," said Ferrero.
* Research allelochemicals and write a report on one type of allelochemical interaction that is beneficial to the plant and detrimental to a pest (
kairomone or allomone).
Pear ester, they found, acts as a
kairomone. Unlike a pheromone, which involves only one species,
kairomones are chemicals emitted by one species--in this case pears--that attract and benefit another, such as codling moths.
Neckteeth formation in Daphnia pulex as an example of continuous phenotypic plasticity: morphological effects of Chaoborus
kairomone concentration and their quantification.
