Table 2 Main characteristics of the models fitted to describe the relationships between response (RX: mean time in X-odorized arm; in s) of American palm weevils in a 4-arm olfactometer and the dose of odor delivered (synthetic pheromone, kairomone: natural odor from fermented sugar cane and mixture of the two; in ng/s).
From: Evaluation and modeling of synergy to pheromone and plant kairomone in American palm weevil
