| Research Abstract |
Although many studies have focused on attraction of natural enemies to volatile SOS signals emitted from plants infested with pest herbivores, relatively little is known about the influence of SOS signals on other pest species. Thus, we investigated foraging and oviposition behavior of the American serpentine leafminer (Liriomyza trifolii) in the cruciferous plants (e.g. Brassica rapa) infested with larvae of their host, the diamond back moth (Plutella xylostella), an important pest of cruciferous plants. We found that leafminer females avoided volatile SOS signals emitted from P. xylostella-infested cruciferous plants and thus they refrained from eating and oviposting in the infested plants. We also found that direct defense systems of cruciferous plants induced by herbivory can drastically decrease the survival ratio of leafminer larvae feeding inside the leaves of the plants, which may partly explain why leafminer females avoid SOS signals from cruciferous plants infested with other herbovores.
