Book Synopsis Thrips Biology and Management by : Bruce L. Parker
Download or read book Thrips Biology and Management written by Bruce L. Parker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thrips (fhysanoptera) are very small insects, widespread throughout the world with a preponderance of tropical species, many temperate ones, and even a few living in arctic regions. Of the approximately 5,000 species so far identified, only a few hundred are crop pests, causing serious damage or transmitting diseases to growing crops and harvestable produce in most countries. Their fringed wings confer a natural ability to disperse widely, blown by the wind. Their minute size and cryptic behavior make them difficult to detect either in the field or in fresh vegetation transported during international trade of vegetables, fruit and ornamental flowers. Many species have now spread from their original natural habitats and hosts to favorable new environments where they often reproduce rapidly to develop intense damaging infestations that are costly to control. Over the past decade there have been several spectacular examples of this. The western flower thrips has expanded its range from the North American continent to Europe, Australia and South Africa. Thrips palmi has spread from its presumed origin, the island of Sumatra, to the coast of Florida, and threatens to extend its distribution throughout North and South America. Pear thrips, a known orchard pest of Europe and the western United States and Canada has recently become a major defoliator of hardwood trees in Vermont and the neighboring states. Local outbreaks of other species are also becoming problems in field and glasshouse crops as the effectiveness of insecticides against them decline.

Book Synopsis Influence of Drought Stress on Interactions of Cotton (Gossypium Hirsutum), Twospotted Spider Mites (Tetranychus Urticae), and Western Flower Thrips (Frankliniella Occidentalis) by : John Joseph Jr Krauska
Download or read book Influence of Drought Stress on Interactions of Cotton (Gossypium Hirsutum), Twospotted Spider Mites (Tetranychus Urticae), and Western Flower Thrips (Frankliniella Occidentalis) written by John Joseph Jr Krauska and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drought is a concern for crop production in the High Plains region of the United States which is predicted by climate models to become exacerbated by regional climatic changes and high-output irrigation that is diminishing the finite underground water resources of the Ogallala Aquifer. In addition to drought conditions, changes in pest pressure due to indirect effects of drought stress also occur. The western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) is known as an economically important early-season pest insect pest of cotton and it also preys on the eggs of the herbivorous twospotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae). It is unknown how the relationship between these two arthropod species could be altered during drought conditions in an agricultural setting. Chapter 1 discusses the interplay of these issues and states that the overall goal of the thesis was to examine the net effect of drought on plant-arthropod interactions. Chapter 2 examined the three-way responses of the plant and two arthropods to drought stress in a controlled greenhouse environment over a two week period. Drought conditions directly reduced spider mite populations, plant development, and stomatal gas exchange. Also, drought had indirect negative effects on plant development and physiological functions from the pestiferous activity of the arthropod populations. We infer that these plant responses reduced the seedling's quality as a host plant which resulted in the observed reductions in spider mite populations when thrips were absent as well as when they were present. The net effect of drought on seedling cotton was compounded by the arthropod dynamics, despite any predation thrips may have enacted on the mite egg populations. Chapter 3 examined the question: do thrips adjust their omnivorous feeding behavior under drought conditions? We approached this question with a 72-hour experiment in which we recorded the amount of herbivorous and predacious feeding by thrips under well-watered and drought conditions. Thrips consumed more mite eggs under drought conditions while the amount of thrips feeding scars on the plant remained the same. We suspect that thrips are supplementing their diet with mite eggs because of reduced plant quality and potential plant defense hormones. Chapter 4 expands on how the results from these two experiments support our conclusion that the net effect of drought stress is largely negative for early-season cotton seedlings. Application of the findings from this thesis can assist with present-day pest and crop management in areas such as proper pesticide utilization and water conservation, which will prepare crop producers for future climatic conditions.

Book Synopsis Field Crop Arthropod Pests of Economic Importance by : Peter A. Edde
Download or read book Field Crop Arthropod Pests of Economic Importance written by Peter A. Edde and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2021-08-21 with total page 1004 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field Crop Arthropod Pests of Economic Importance presents detailed descriptions of the biology and ecology of important arthropod pest of selected global field crops. Standard management options for insect pest control on crops include biological, non-chemical, and chemical approaches. However, because agricultural crops face a wide range of insect pests throughout the year, it can prove difficult to find a simple solution to insect pest control in many, if not most, cropping systems. A whole-farm or integrated pest management approach combines cultural, natural, and chemical controls to maintain insect pest populations below levels that cause economic damage to the crop. This practice requires accurate species identification and thorough knowledge of the biology and ecology of the target organism. Integration and effective use of various control components is often enhanced when the target organism is correctly identified, and its biology and ecology are known. This book provides a key resource toward that identification and understanding. Students and professionals in agronomy, insect detection and survey, and economic entomology will find the book a valuable learning aid and resource tool. Includes insect synonyms, common names, and geographic distribution Provides information on natural enemies Is thoroughly referenced for future research
Book Synopsis Aphids as Crop Pests, 2nd Edition by : Helmut F van Emden
Download or read book Aphids as Crop Pests, 2nd Edition written by Helmut F van Emden and published by CABI. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aphids are among the major global pest groups, causing serious economic damage to many food and commodity crops in most parts of the world. This revision and update of the well-received first edition published ten years ago reflects the expansion of research in genomics, endosymbionts and semiochemicals, as well as the shift from control of aphids with insecticides to a more integrated approach imposed by increasing resistance in the aphids and government restrictions on pesticides. The book remains a comprehensive and up-to-date reference work on the biology of aphids, the various methods of controlling them and the progress of integrated pest management as illustrated by ten case histories.
