hexadecanoic acid/アブラナ属

Two new fatty acid derivatives, 9Z,12Z,15Z-octadecatrienoic acid sorbitol ester (1) and (10,11,12)-trihydroxy-(7Z,14Z)-heptadecadienoic acid (2), were isolated from the pollen of Brassica campestris L. var. oleifera DC., along with the four known fatty acid derivatives,

The biosynthesis of a large number of sex pheromone components of various moth species has been shown to start with common fatty acids and involve chain shortening by two carbons and introduction of a double bond at the 11-12 position. A recent report indicates that one of these common components,

With the public perception that synthetic pesticides leave harmful residues in crop produce for human consumption, there has been increased interest in using natural products for pest control. The potential of using fruit extracts of hot pepper for controlling the cabbage looper, Trichopulsia ni

Broccolini (Brassica oleracea Italica × Alboglabra) is a hybrid of broccoli and kai-lan, Chinese broccoli. To date, no study has been reported on the chemical composition of the volatile fractions of this raw material. In this study, the volatile constituents from the ethanolic extract of broccolini

Experiments were performed to characterize the action of a brain hormone on pheromone biosynthesis in female redbanded leafroller and cabbage looper moths. Results showed that the two species differed in their respective control mechanisms. In the cabbage looper, pheromone titer from decapitated
