MedKoo CAT#: 564525

CAS#: 25161-91-5

Description: Loline is a natural insecticidal and deterrent to a broad range of insects, including species in the Hemiptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, and Blattodea orders. Loline deters species such as the bird cherry-oat aphid (genus Rhopalosiphum), large milkweed bug (Oncopeltus fasciatus), and American cockroach (Periplaneta americana), thereby protecting the host plant from insect herbivory.
