Fig. 1. Gas chromatographs (FID) with coupled electroantennograms (EAD) from
Colorado potato beetles in response to volatiles emitted over a 3 h test
period by an undamaged potato plant (A), a mechanically damaged potato plant
(B), 10 female beetles feeding on a potato plant (C) and 10 male beetles
feeding on a potato plant (D). EADs in A, C and D were recorded from female
antennae; the EAD in B was recorded from a male antenna. A, nonanal;
B, 2-phenyl ethanol; CPB I, male-specific compound; IS, internal
standard (10 ng of decane); Sesquiterpene region, retention times of various
sesquiterpenes. No differences were observed between EADs of male and female
antennae.
