    摘要: A composition containing a substance having sex pheromone activity on San Jose scale (SJS) after finding the substance. More specifically, there are provided a composition having sex pheromone activity on SJS, the composition containing 3,7-dimethyl-7-octenyl propionate as a substance having sex pheromone activity on SJS; an attractant for SJS, the attractant containing the composition and a support for supporting the composition in such a manner as to allow the substance to be released; a mating disruptant for SJS, the disruptant containing the composition and a container for storing the composition in such a manner as to allow the substance to be released; and a method for attracting SJS or disrupting mating of SJS, the method including a step of installing the attractant or the mating disruptant for SJS in a field to release the substance from the attractant or the mating disruptant into the field.

    摘要: Compounds are used as agents that deter feeding on crops by agricultural pests, such as hemiptera, lepidoptera and coleoptera, including, but not limited to, stink bugs, codling moth larvae and granary weevils. Feeding deterrence is obtained by contact of the insects with at least one of the compounds of the structure (I)wherein R is —OH, ═O, —OC(O)R4, —OR6 or —(OR6)2, wherein each R6 is independently an alkyl group containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R4 is a branched or straight chain, saturated or unsaturated, hydrocarbyl group with zero to two double bonds and from 1 to 15 carbon atoms; X is O or CH2 with the proviso that when X is O, R can only be ═O; each Z is independently (CH) or (CH2); y is a numeral selected from 1 and 2; R1 is H or a branched or straight chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbyl group with zero to two double bonds and from 1 to 15 carbon atoms; R2 is H or a branched or straight chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbyl group with zero to three double bonds and from 1 to 15 carbon atoms; R3 is selected from H, a branched or straight chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbyl group with zero to three double bonds and from 1 to 15 carbon atoms, —(CH2)nOH, —C(O)OR5, —CH2C(O)OR7, —CH2C(O)R8, —C(O)NR9R10, and —CH2C(O)NR11R12 where each of R5, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11 and R12 is independently selected from H and a branched or straight chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbyl group with zero to three double bonds and from 1 to 15 carbon atoms and n is an integer of from 1 to 12; the bond between the 2 and 3 positions in the ring structure may be a single or a double bond; and wherein the compounds of structure (I) contain from 9 to 20 total carbon atoms in the compounds.

    摘要: The present proposals relate to an insecticide or miticide composition which demonstrates low phytotoxicity even at relatively high concentrations combined with highly effective insecticidal and miticidal activity. The composition comprises: a fatty acid/amino acid salt, the fatty acid component comprising: one or more unsaturated fatty acids having from 14 to 22 carbon atoms; and one or more saturated fatty acids having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms; wherein the one or more saturated fatty acids having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms forms at least 15 wt. % of the fatty acid component, and wherein the weight ratio of (unsaturated fatty acids having from 14 to 22 carbon atoms) to (saturated fatty acids having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms) is at least 1. Uses of the compositions and methods of killing insects or mites using the compositions also form part of the proposals.
