AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers isolated and identified two compounds, (1S,6R)-2,7(14),10-bisabolatrien-1-ol-4-one and (+)-7(14),10-bisaboladien-1-ol-4-one, from the plant Cryptomeria japonica.
- These compounds were found to act as antifeedants specifically against the grasshopper species Locusta migratoria, which is a significant pest for cereal crops globally.
- The antifeeding effectiveness was only observed when both compounds were used together; individually, they did not inhibit the feeding behavior of L. migratoria.
Article Abstract
(1S,6R)-2,7(14),10-bisabolatrien-1-ol-4-one and (+)-7(14),10-bisaboladien-1-ol-4-one were isolated and identified from Cryptomeria japonica as antifeedants against Locusta migratoria L. which is well known as a serious pest to cereals throughout the world. These compounds strongly inhibited the feeding of L. migratoria only when they were combined, but each compound alone did not show any activity.
