Abstract

Rhynchophorus palmarum is a major pest of palms (Arecaceae) in Brasil. Both the behavioral (olfactometry) and electrophysiological (electroantennography, both alone and coupled to chromatography) of R. palmarum was studied against volatile organic compounds emitted by native entomopathogenic fungi isolated from Coruripe (Alagoas, Brazil). Two fungal isolates were identified by aeration system for 24 hours: CVAD01 and CVAD02. CVAD01 did not cause a significant behavioral response; however, male insects were significantly attracted to CVAD02 extracts. Electrophysiological bioassays showed antennal activity in both sexes to volatile components present in the two identified native fungi. The chromatographic analysis of the extracts indicated profiles of volatile organic compounds with the presence of three alcohol, three aromatics, three ketones, and four hydrocarbons.
