Institute of EntomologyGuizhou University The Provincial Key Laboratory for Agricultural Pest Management of Mountainous RegionGuiyang China 2. Anshun CollegeAnshun China Abstract The relative preferences of Amblyseius fallacis Garman for healthy host plantsmechanically injured host plants and host plants infested with the spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch were determined using a Y-tube olfactometer and leaf disc test. The composition and relative contents of the volatiles of healthymechanically injured and mite infested Phaseolous vulgaris host plants were analyzed and identified by gas chromatography-mass spectra GC / MS. The results showed that odors from the leaves plants that hador wereinfested with T. urticaewhich included plants with plants without and plants without mites or their feceswere significantly more attractive to A. fallacis than either mechanically injured or healthy plants. A. fallacis could be attracted by the odors from mechanically injured plants and healthy plants to which T. urticae feces had been addedbut showed a greater preference for odors from mite-infested plants. The composition and content of volatiles differed significantly between healthymechanically injured and mite-infested plants. The volatiles of plants infested with T. urticae had more components than those from mechanically injured or healthy plantsand were of higher molecular weight. Methoxy-phenyloxime2 4-di-tert-butylphenol E E -α-farnesenejunipene and alkyl comprised the greater proportion of the volatiles collected from all three kinds of plants.
