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.

This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM), established in 1962, is an intergovernmental organization of 13 countries: Albania, Algeria, Egypt, France, Greece, Italy, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Tunisia and Turkey. Four institutes (Bari, Italy; Chania, Greece; Montpellier, France; and Zaragoza, Spain) provide postgraduate education at the Master of Science level. CIHEAM promotes research networks on Mediterranean agricultural priorities, supports the organization of specialized education in member countries, holds seminars and workshops bringing together technologists and scientists involved in Mediterranean agriculture and regularly produces diverse publications including the series Options Méditerranéennes. Through these activities, CIHEAM promotes North/South dialogue and international co-operation for agricultural development in the Mediterranean region. Over the past decade, the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Zaragoza has developed a number of training and research-supporting activities in the field of agroecology and sustainability of agricultural production systems. Some of these activities have been concerned with the rational use of pesticides and more particularly with the implementation of integrated control systems in order to gain in efficacy and decrease both the environmental impact and the negative repercussions for the commercialization of agricultural products.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) presents a major problem to farmers of fruiting vegetables by injuring fruits and vectoring Tomato spotted wilt virus. Attempts at controlling this species using calendar applications of broad-spectrum insecticides were ineffective. In contrast, ultra-violet reflective mulches effectively repel thrips and reduce the incidence of Tomato spotted wilt on tomatoes. Furthermore, combining multiple management tactics into a push-pull strategy is effective in other crop systems with other pests. The current study tested various combinations of ultraviolet reflective or black mulch, a kaolin clay spray, and companion plantings of Spanish needle (Bidens alba) and sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) for thrips management in tomatoes and peppers in Florida. Kaolin clay and ultra-violet reflective mulch both reduced thrips numbers on both crops and had a synergistic effect. Additionally, the planting of sunflowers as a companion plant increased thrips numbers on pepper plants, while Spanish needle reduced thrips numbers on tomatoes. Sunflowers attracted higher numbers of an effective predator (minute pirate bug, Orius insidiosus) to the fields than the crops alone. Companion plants of B. alba and ultraviolet-reflective mulch increased yield and decreased Tomato spotted wilt incidence on tomato. Ultraviolet-reflective mulch and kaolin increased yield of peppers. The results of the study show that these combinations can be successfully used as a push-pull method of thrips management in peppers and tomatoes.

Download or read book Interaction Between Natural Enemies and Insecticides Used for the Management of Western Flower Thrips, Frankliniella Occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera written by Md Touhidur Rahman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] Integrated pest management (IPM) relies on the use of multiple tactics to reduce pest numbers below an economic threshold. One of the challenges for the implementation of IPM is using both insecticides and biological control. This is particularly difficult in horticultural crops where very little damage can be tolerated. Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is a worldwide pest of economic importance associated with cultivated crops, ornamentals and weeds. It is considered a major pest of strawberry, Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne (Rosaceae), and can be responsible for substantial yield loss. Insecticides are the main method of control for F. occidentalis in strawberry and other crops. Due to the rapid development of insecticide resistance and the limitations of existing biological control in Australia, there is a need to incorporate insecticides, natural enemies, and resistant host plants to keep the population below an economic threshold. This project sought to (i) evaluate commercial strawberry varieties for feeding and oviposition preferences of F. occidentalis, (ii) assess the compatibility of natural enemies with an insecticide currently used for F. occidentalis control in IPM programs, (iii) assess the effectiveness of the release of multiple species of natural enemies, (iv) determine the residual threshold of an insecticide which controls F. occidentalis effectively whilst having a reduced effect on natural enemies, and (v) assess the compatibility of natural enemies with an increased rate of an insecticide to manage an insecticide-resistant strain. Frankliniella occidentalis showed a distinctive olfactory preference in a choice trial evaluating the feeding preference of F. occidentalis to strawberry cultivars (Camarosa, Albion and Camino Real). Frankliniella occidentalis was attracted most to Camarosa for both feeding and oviposition, followed by Albion and Camino Real. Frankliniella occidentalis also preferred to feed on fresh leaves to those that had been fed upon by a conspecific. Of the three varieties tested, Camino Real was the least preferred cultivar for oviposition. The development period of F. occidentalis (from eggs to adult emergence) was shortest in Camarosa and longest in Camino Real. Overall, of the three varieties tested, Camarosa appeared the most favourable for F. iii occidentalis feeding, oviposition and population growth, and the other cultivars might be a better choice for growers seeking to reduce F. occidentalis populations...

This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Integrated Pest Management IPM is an ecosystem approach to managing pests through understanding the crop ecosystem as a basis of good crop management decisions and support the sustainable intensification of crop production and pesticide risk reduction. Often, low levels of populations of some pests are needed to keep natural enemies in the field and the aim of IPM is to reduce pest populations to avoid damage levels that cause yield loss. The IPM is still directly associated with pests and defined as a knowledge-intensive process of decision making that combines various strategies (biological, cultural, physical and chemical, regular field monitoring of the crops etc.) that focuses on reduction of pesticide use to sustainably manage dangerous pests. This book is intended to guide farmers in the integrated management of pest and diseases, helping them with decision making. It provides a description of the most dangerous pests and diseases, including symptoms, possible location, types of plants, biology as well as ways of monitoring. It also describes the main components of specific Integrated Pest Management.

Download or read book Combined releases of predators for biological control of spider mites Tetranychus urticae Koch and western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentals (Pergande) written by and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2004-09-20 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) (TSSM) and western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) (WFT) are two notorious pests of ornamental plants and vegetables, both in field and especially in greenhouse cultures. They often occur simultaneously on the same plants. Chemical control is difficult mainly because of problems with low efficiency of insecticides, resistance, residues and interference with biocontrol strategies. The predatory mite Amblyseius cucumeris Oudemans (Acari: Phytoseiidae) and the predatory bug Orius insidiosus Say (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) are two widely used biological control agents of WFT; both are generalist predators. Besides thrips, spider mites also constitute a main diet of both predators and sometimes Amblyseius and Orius spp. are used to suppress TSSM populations. One aim of this project was to elucidate whether each of the two predators can significantly suppress both pests when occurring simultaneously on the same plant in different densities, and how one of the two pests influences the control efficiencies of the other by both predators. In combined release systems with more than two predators, intraguild predation (IGP) more or less exists, e.g. Orius spp. can also feed on the predatory mite. However, the intensity and consequences of IGPs differ in relation to system parameters like direction of predation (who is predator, who prey) within the predator guild, the density of prey item as well as the availability (density) of and preference for alternative food. Thus, another objective of this project was to evaluate such possible intraguild effects with combined releases of A. cucumeris and O. insidiosus and how they could influence suppression of WFT and TSSM and therefore the efficiency of biocontrol.
