Abstract: A kind of trail pheromone analogue ((Z,Z)dodeca-3,6-dien-1-ol, DDE—OH) of the black-winged subterranean termite, Odontotermes formosanus Sharaki was synthesized. Active concentrations (103-10 ng/cm) of this pheromone elicited similar behavior in worker termites as natural pheromone extract. There was no significant difference between the response of workers to synthetic and natural pheremones (P>0.05). When the concentration of synthetic analogue was higher than 10 ng/cm it had some repellent effect on termite individuals.
Key words: Odontotermes formosanus, pheromone analogue, biological activity
