  Author(s): Amina Meliani*, Fatima Djadouni and Samira Nair
  
  With the need of sustainable agroecosystem, pest management is becoming imperative. Nowadays, it is known that essential oils are potent molecules with high potential for plant protection. These advantages have encouraged scientists to intensively screen for the plants biomolecules as promising candidates for pest management to replace currently used chemical pesticides. The application of such as technology for the removal of these insects has received much attention and led to the development of effective, economic and environmentally friendly technologies. In this study, a metabolomic approach was used to investigate the characterization of three pheromones, identified by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) as α-Bergamotol, β-farnesene, Isobombykol...
