摘要
Both geranyl hexanoate and geranyl octanoate were identified by GC/MS as the major volatiles in a hitherto uncharacterized abdominal gland in females in Agriotes obscurus. Only geranyl octanoate was found in A. lineatus. In EAG tests performed on A. obscurus males, geranyl butanoate and geranyl hexanoate elicited the strongest antennal responses.
