From: Attraction, mobility, and preference by Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Ptinidae) to microbially-mediated volatile emissions by two species of fungi in stored grain

Figure 1

Preference shown in the four-way, still-air olfactometer using the mean percentage of L. serricorne adults choosing a stimulus (± SE) after given a 4-min opportunity (top panel) and their mean time to decision (± SE, s; bottom panel) based on the semiochemical treatment to which they were exposed in the laboratory at the USDA-ARS Center for Grain and Animal Health Research in Manhattan, KS. A total of n = 200 adults replicate were tested in this assay. Bars with shared letters are not significantly different from each other (Tukey HSD, α = 0.05). Neg. Ctrl, negative control; UV-grain, UV-sanitized grain; P. Ctrl, uninoculated grain; FS-grain, F. verticillioides-inoculated grain; AF-grain, A. flavus-inoculated grain.
