Abstract

Field screening of lures in the Midsouth USA indicated that the lure containing hexyl butyrate, (E)-2-hexenyl butyrate and (E)-4-oxo-2-hexenal(4:10:7) was the most effective at collecting Lygus lineolaris, and collected similar numbers of individuals to traps baited with live virgin insects over a similar period of time in other studies.
