Application | (Z)-13-Octadecenyl acetate (synthesized stereoselectively from cyclooctadiene) serves as the key sex pheromone component of the sugarcane stem borer (Chilo sacchariphagus). Applied in precision monitoring and targeted control, it attracts male moths to traps for outbreak peak detection. Slow-release formulations disrupt mating orientation, preventing larval stem boring damage to sugarcane, reducing sugar yield losses and replacing highly toxic insecticides while ensuring ecological and economic sustainability. |
