Palaniswamy, P. published the artcileResponses of male redbacked cutworm, Euxoa ochrogaster (Lepidoptera:Noctuidae), to sex pheromone components in a flight tunnel, Formula: C14H26O2, the publication is Environmental Entomology (1983), 12(3), 748-52, database is CAplus.
Of 4 components of the title pheromone, individually only Z5-12:Ac ((Z)-5-dodecenyl acetate; I) [16676-96-3] and Z7-12:Ac ((Z)-5-dodecenyl acetate; II) [14959-86-5] stimulated activation responses of the E. ochrogaster males, but neither initiated upwind flight in the flight tunnel. Of all possible binary combinations only I + II elicited responses from activation to landing. Z5-10:Ac ((Z)-5-decenyl acetate) [67446-07-5] increased activation, upwind flight responses, and prolonged flight, but only when it was added to blends containing I + II. Addition of Z9-12:Ac((Z)-9-dodecyl acetate) [16974-11-1] as a 4th component increased initiation of landing response on the source. In moth pheromone systems utilizing several components, the sequence of male responses in locating and mating with a female depends upon specific combination of pheromone components and concentrations
