[Objective]Behavioral and electrophysiological responses of Pieris rapae larvae to two natural host plants (Brassica oleracea L. var. gemmifera cv. Cyrus L. and Tropaeolum majus L. cv. Glorious Gleam) saps in order to pro-vide reference for host selection mechanism of phytophagous insects. [Method]After P. rapae larvae were hatched, they were cultured on B. oleracea L. leaves, then the larvae growing into 5th instar for 24-28 h were used for the experiment. The leaves were squeezed to obtain the sap, and double-choice behavior experiment was used to test behavioral responses of the larvae to s...
