The sex attractant pheromone produced by femaleDacus oleae Gmelin is a mixture of four compounds, two of which are found in the rectal gland and the other two elsewhere in the insect body. The ratio of these compounds in the pheromone blend was measured. Biological activity of all four compounds and their combinations was studied in lab and field cage tests. The most abundant compound in the mixture (55.7%) shows the highest biological activity. Recombination of all compounds significantly increases activity of the main compound.
由雌性橄榄实蝇产生的性引诱信息素是由四种化合物组成的混合物，其中两种存在于直肠腺中，另外两种存在于昆虫体内的其他部位。测量了这些化合物在信息素混合物中的比例。在实验室和野外笼测试中研究了所有四种化合物及其组合的生物活性。混合物中最丰富的化合物（55.7%）显示出最高的生物活性。所有化合物的重组显著增加了主要化合物的活性。
