• Lady beetle oviposition behavior in response to the trophic environment (2009, unknown): “…aphid alarm pheromone (E)-bfarnesene (EbF) is attractive to A. bipunctata (Hemptinne et al., 2000c; Francis et al., 2004), H. convergens (Acar et al., 2001), C. septempunctata (Nakamuta, 1991; Al Abassi et al., 2000), and H. axyridis (Verheggen et al., 2007; but also see Mondor and Roitberg, 2000).”
• Alarm pheromone mediates production of winged dispersal morphs in aphids (2005, unknown): “The EBF may repel aphids from settling on those plants (Bernasconi et al. 1998) and there is some indication that EBF may act as an attractant to aphid natural enemies (Micha & Wyss 1996; Al Abassi et al. 2000), which would reduce aphid density.”
• Aphidophagy by Coccinellidae: Application of biological control in agroecosystems (2009, background): “Coccinella septempunctata responds to plant volatiles (Girling and Hassall, 2008), E-b-farnesene, (Al Abassi et al., 2000), volatiles from Toxoptera aurantii (Fonscolombe) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) (tea aphid) (Han and Chen, 2002), herbivore-induced plant volatiles (Pettersson et al., 2008) and…”
• Role of terpenes from aphid‐infested potato on searching and oviposition behavior of Episyrphus balteatus (2007, methodology): “Two molecules, namely (E)-β-farnesene (EBF) and β-caryophyllene, were found to be a kairomone and an informative inhibitor respectively, for the seven-spot ladybird by electroantennography and olfactometry methods (Al Abassi et al., 2000).”
• Attraction of codling moth males to apple volatiles (2004, background): “, 1992), and attracts both phytophagous and predatory insects (Kielty et al., 1996; Al-Abassi et al., 2000; Koschier et al., 2000).”
• Chemical cues mediating aphid location by natural enemies (2008, background): “-caryophyllene is an EBF-inhibitor, altering not only the behaviour of the aphids, but also that of predators (Dawson et al., 1984; Mostafavi et al., 1996; Zhu et al., 1999; Al Abassi et al., 2000).”
