Subject:
Thrips tabaci; adults; antixenosis; breeding programs; cabbage; climate; kaolin; leaves; pests; reflectance; reflectance spectroscopy; spectral analysis
Abstract:
... Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) has become a significant pest of cabbage (Brasssica oleracea L.) in regions with a dry continental climate. Thrips-resistant cabbage varieties have been developed in breeding programs, but the mechanisms of resistance remain largely unknown. Antixenosis, one of the three resistance mechanisms, may play a role but no plant trait has been identified as a source ...

Bemisia tabaci; adults; bioassays; biotypes; climate; dinotefuran; greenhouses; host plants; imidacloprid; insects; lethal concentration 50; monitoring; temperature; thiamethoxam; Arizona; California
Abstract:
... Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotype B is a highly prolific and polyphagous whitefly that established in much of North America during the 1980s. Neonicotinoid insecticides have been fundamental in regaining control over outbreak populations of B. tabaci, but resistance threatens their sustainability. Susceptibility of B. tabaci in the southwestern United States to four neonicotinoid insecticides var ...

Bactrocera dorsalis; climate; cotton; fruit crops; humans; liquids; longevity; methyl eugenol; naled; pests; phosphates; polymers; risk reduction; spinosad; toxic substances; trapping; California; Hawaii
Abstract:
... The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) is a major pest of many fruit crops worldwide. Current detection programs by federal and state agencies in the United States use a grid of traps consisting of liquid methyl eugenol (lure) and naled (toxicant) applied to cotton wicks and hung inside the trap. In recent years efforts have been made to incorporate these chemicals into various solid ...

Abstract:
... The Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) cryptic species complex of whitefiies contains two species, MEAM1 and MED, that are highly invasive in supportive climates the world over. In the United States, MEAM1 occurs both in the field and in the greenhouse, but MED is only found in the greenhouse. To make inferences about the population structure of both species, and the origin and re ...
