e0“The role of host plant chemicals in oviposition of Helicoverpa armigera Hiibner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) was studied in two solanaceous plants, Solanum viarum Dunal. and Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.”
e7“Oviposition attractants were also present in volatiles of both plants”

- Intervention effect Microwave-assisted leaf extract fractions of Solanum viarum elicited a strong oviposition response of Helicoverpa armigera compared with the solvent check.
- Intervention effect Microwave-assisted leaf extract fractions of tomato elicited a strong oviposition response of Helicoverpa armigera compared with the solvent check.
- Intervention effect Two volatile fractions of Solanum viarum containing small molecular weight alkanes elicited a strong ovipositional response of Helicoverpa armigera.
- Intervention effect One tomato volatile fraction containing 3-nitrobenzyl alcohol elicited a moderate oviposition response of Helicoverpa armigera.
- Intervention effect Another tomato volatile fraction containing 3-nitrobenzyl alcohol showed a strong oviposition deterrent activity against Helicoverpa armigera.
- Observation Normal alkanes 13,17,21-trimethylheptatriacontane and octacosane were the only chemicals present in the Solanum viarum fractions.
- Observation Besides the alkanes, few other n-alkanes and related primary alcohols and aldehydes were present in tomato foliage.
- Observation Oviposition attractants were present in volatiles of Lycopersicon esculentum.
