| Abstract/Contents: | "Endogenous allelochemicals can have a profound influence on host plant resistance to arthropod pests. This study evaluated 22 naturally occurring compunds found in Rosaceous trees for their influence on feeding of adult Japanese beetles [Popillia japonica (Newman)]. Individual compounds were incorporated into artificial diets at concentrations from 0 to 100 mM. No-choice feeding trials were conducted over 24 hours. Four general trends were recognized among the dose responses: 1) no response: benzaldehyde, calcium oxalate, tannic acid, 2) stimulatory: rutin, 3) optimal peak: benzoic acid, phloridzin, quercetin, catechin, geraniol, arbutin, caffeic acid chlorogenic acid, and 4) inhibitory: p-coumaric acid, eugenol, amygdalin, phloretin, naringenin, o-coumaric acid, arginine, asparagine, oxalic acid, and gallic acid. These results suggest that variation in chemical constituents and concentrations may have a strong influence on host plant resistance to Japanese beetles among Rosaceous plants." |
