Abstract
A series of quassinoids was tested for antifeedant activity against the aphidMyzus persicae (Hemiptera, Aphididae). Isobrucein B, brucein B and C, glaucarubinone, and quassin decreased feeding at concentrations down to 0.05% and isobrucein A was effective at 0.01%. Only quassin showed no phytotoxic effects and is therefore the most promising compound for further development.Entities:
