(3E) -4,8-Dimethylnona-1,3,7-triene
(3E) -4,8-Dimethylnona-1,3,7-triene is a sesquiterpene compound primarily emitted by plants in response to herbivore attacks. It helps in defense by acting as a direct repellent and indirectly by attracting predators of herbivorous insects. Additionally, (3E) -4,8-Dimethylnona-1,3,7-triene attracts Asian corn borer (ACB, Ostrinia furnacalis) larvae, and its external application hinders larvae from locating maize already damaged by pests.
