Abstract Topically applied sublethal doses of eserine may interrupt chemical communication between the two sexes of Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenee), by affecting calling and sex pheromone titre released by the females. (1) Studies on the effects of sublethal eserine on the chemical communication system of O. furnacalis indicated that there was a decreasing probability of females calling and sex pheromone titre as the eserine dosage increased from 0.27 to 2 700 ng, with no effect… Expand
