Aphid alarm pheromone produced by transgenic plants affects aphid and parasitoid behavior
Open accessAbstract
The alarm pheromone for many species of aphids, which causes dispersion in response to attack by predators or parasitoids, consists of the sesquiterpene (E)-β-farnesene (E βf). We used high levels of expression in Arabidopsis thaliana plants of an E βf synthase gene cloned from Mentha×piperita to cause emission of pure E βf. These plants elicited potent effects on behavior of the aphid Myzus persicae(alarm and repellent responses) and its parasitoid Diaeretiella rapae(an arrestant response). Here, we report the transformation of a plant to produce an insect pheromone and demonstrate that the resulting emission affects behavioral responses at two trophic levels.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
