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.

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...

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.

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.
Book Synopsis Biological Control of Insect and Mite Pests in Iran by : Javad Karimi
Download or read book Biological Control of Insect and Mite Pests in Iran written by Javad Karimi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a reference to biological control of arthropod pests in agriculture and of public health importance in Iran. A quick glance over the literature shows a long history of biocontrol attempts in the country. Some historically important events highlighting the interest of Iranian academic, research and extension fields to the natural enemies and their applied aspects are provided. Iran, with an exception of the former USSR, was a pioneer in both basic and applied biocontrol in West Asia. The book consists of four parts: three parts for predators, parasitoids and pathogens, and last part for other approaches and analyses of the current state of biological control in Iran. The book provides the most up-to-date information on pest control and related topics of entomology in Iran. The chapters are written by scholars from major Universities and research centers in Iran.
