Chemical Ecology of the Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), and Potential for Alternative Control Methods
Sablon, Ludovic; Dickens, Joseph C.; Haubruge, Ericet al.
[en] The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) has been a major insect pest to potato farming
for over 150 years and various control methods have been established to reduce its impact
on potato fields. Crop rotation and pesticide use are currently the most widely used
approaches, although alternative methods are being developed. Here we review the role of
various volatile and nonvolatile chemicals involved in behavior changes of CPB that may
have potential for their control. First, we describe all volatile and nonvolatile chemicals
involved in host plant localization and acceptance by CPB beetles, including glycoalcaloids
and host plant volatiles used as kairomones. In the second section, we present the chemical
signals used by CPB in intraspecific communication, including sex and aggregation
pheromones. Some of these chemicals are used by natural enemies of CPBs to locate their
prey and are presented in the third section. The last section of this review is devoted a
discussion of the potential of some natural chemicals in biological control of CPB and to
approaches that already reached efficient field applications.
