Feeding preferences and foraging in Larvae of Manduca sexta and Spodoptera littoralis : a laboratory study based on olfaction por Nyström, Elin

“…Larval dual choice tests were made in an olfactometer, testing the olfactorybased preference of larvae of M. sexta, reared on foliage of oilseed rape, tomato, potato or synthetic diet, and the olfactory- based preference of S. littoralis, reared on foliage of cowpea, cotton, cabbage or synthetic diet. Among the larvae of M. sexta, reared on foliage of potato, there was significant attraction to the prior experienced host while the larvae of S. littoralis preferred cabbage in all experiments, regardless of prior host. …”
