Abstract:: ... Quantifying thrips damage is challenging. We present an automated protocol for the screening of thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) damage on Capsicum (pepper) leaves. We show that standardizing the exposed leaf side is important for resistance ranking of accessions. Our results indicate that thrips resistance is dependent on the plant's developmental stage and its genetic background. Ultimately, our ...

Abstract:: ... In a 1 ha haricot bean (HB) (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) field strip-cropped with 2 rows of maize (MZ) (Zea mays L.) on either side and then at 25 m intervals, the number of African bollworm (ABW) (Heliothis armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)) eggs + larvae on MZ was higher than that on HB by a factor of nearly 18. In a replicated experiment where five trap crops were compared with HB, as a che ...

Abstract:: ... Pepper weevils, Anthonomus eugenii Cano (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), feed and oviposit in flower buds and small fruits of plants in the genus Capsicum, as well as several species of Solanum (Solanaceae). Females chew a small hole into the fruit, deposit a single egg within the cavity, and seal the hole with a clear anal secretion that hardens into an 'oviposition plug'. Female oviposition behavior ...

Abstract:: ... Responses of female Dicyphus hesperus Knight (Heteroptera: Miridae) to the odours of plants and prey were tested in the laboratory using a Y-tube olfactometer. Females were attracted to the odour of tomato leaves infested with nymphs of the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae), compared to uninfested leaves. No such attraction occurred to tomato leaves i ...

Abstract:: ... Western flower thrips (WFT), Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), is a major pest of horticultural crops worldwide. The search for alternative pest management techniques has resulted in increasing interest in the use of kairomones and other behaviour‐modifying chemicals to mitigate the impact of this pest. In this study, we determined whether the origin of populations, ...

Abstract:: ... The western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), causes major losses in agricultural and horticultural crops worldwide. The volatile compounds methyl isonicotinate, p‐anisaldehyde, eugenol, and linalool are known as olfactory attractants, and salicylaldehyde is known as a repellent for F. occidentalis under clean‐air conditions in laboratory experiments. ...
