(a) Quantitative measurement of β-caryophyllene emitted by flowering plants of different Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0 background) accessions: wild type (WT), β-caryophyllene knock-out mutant of At5g23960 (KO) and transgenic line β-caryophyllene synthase-overexpressing At5g23960 (OE). n.f., not found. (b) Responses of D. citri, tested in a 4-arm-olfactometer, to volatiles of two sets of odour sources. WT, KO and OE (see above) Arabidopsis thaliana (black bars) lines were tested against pots with substrate (withe bars). Bars represent the overall percentages of time spent in each of the two odour sources. Error bars represent SE (n = 10 independent test). The number of responding psyllids is indicated in the black bars and the total number of insects tested is given between parentheses for each comparison. Time spent in odor sources were analysed by paired t-test. Asterisks indicate significant differences between odour sources (*P < 0.05).
