Four-day-old males were not attracted by lures or visual cues alone, while they are attracted by lures presented with asparagus odours.
The location and timing of endo- -mannanase production and the increase in activity of -mannoside mannohydrolase in seeds of germinated asparagus were followed.
There is no distinctive aleurone layer in asparagus seeds.
The volatiles found in green asparagus were radically different from those found in previous studies.
Visual stimuli alone had no attractive effect even for 4-day-old males that are usually attracted by asparagus.
Tests using males showed that the presence of a congener was not a necessary factor for attraction to asparagus (fig. 4).
Green asparagus (10 g) was rapidly crushed in a flask fitted to another flask immersed in liquid nitrogen and connected to a vacuum pump.
When used with plant odour, eight pieces of asparagus (thickness 0.5 cm) were placed in a cup (diameter 2 cm) at the base of each lure.
