Abstract
In wind tunnel experiments with Delia radicum the dosage increase effi ciency of the repellent salicylaldehyde was studied under preference a nd non-preference conditions. In micro field experiments in the tunnel the influence of the repellent on oviposition was measured using diff erent application methods. A concentration of about 43 ng salicylaldeh yde/l of air reduced oviposition c. 80%.
