Application | (Z)-9-Tetradecenyl acetateis a core sex pheromone component for multiple Lepidopteran pests and serves as a key constituent of Ostrinia spp. (e.g., Japanese corn borer) pheromone systems. This compound is frequently blended with cis/trans-12-tetradecenyl acetate (Z/E-12-14:Ac) and tetradecyl acetate (14:Ac) to formulate multi-component lures, achieving enhanced pest monitoring and control.For Ostrinia furnacalis (Asian corn borer):Lures containing 0.06% trans-12-14:Ac, 0.03% 14:Ac, and 0.06% cis-12-14:Ac demonstrated 15-30 male captures per trap/day, improving monitoring accuracy by >50% compared to conventional light traps. |
