| Application | Z-12-Tetradecenyl acetate (derived from the pheromone system of the European corn borer Ostrinia nubilalis) serves as a critical sex pheromone component for the Asian corn borer (Ostrinia furnacalis). It enables precision control in maize fields: Traps monitor adult emergence peaks, while slow-release formulations disrupt male mating orientation, preventing larval stem boring damage that causes crop lodging and yield loss, thereby reducing reliance on chemical insecticides. |
