cotton; Creontiades; pest management; bacterial contamination; Pentatomidae; plant pests; surveys; plant rots; crop yield; insect collection; coasts; field experimentation; coastal water; cages; bolls; disease incidence; Texas
Abstract:
... Cotton yields have suffered losses from cotton boll rot during the last 10 to 15 years in areas of South Texas. Piercing-sucking insects feeding on cotton bolls, particularly stink bugs, have been implicated in introducing the bacterial disease. Along the Gulf Coast of South Texas, boll-feeding plant bugs occur, and may be associated with the disease. A replicated field survey was conducted in 201 ...

2. Single and Multiple In-Season Measurements as Indicators of At-Harvest Cotton Boll Damage Caused by Verde Plant Bug (Hemiptera: Miridae)

Journal of economic entomology 2013 v.106 no.3 pp. 1310-1316

Subject:
Creontiades; Gossypium hirsutum; bolls; cotton; cultivars; insects; models; pest monitoring; plant damage; plant response; regression analysis; Texas
Abstract:
... The ability to monitor verde plant bug, Creontiades signatus Distant (Hemiptera: Miridae), and the progression of cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., boll responses to feeding and associated cotton boll rot provided opportunity to assess if single in-season measurements had value in evaluating at-harvest damage to bolls and if multiple in-season measurements enhanced their combined use. One in-season v ...

The ability to monitor verde plant bug, Creontiades signatus Distant (Hemiptera: Miridae), and the progression of cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., boll responses to feeding and associated cotton boll rot development provided opportunity to assess if a single in-season measurement had value in evaluating subsequent at-harvest damage to bolls and if multiple in-season measurements enhanced their combi ...

Subject:
Creontiades; Gossypium hirsutum; bolls; branches; cotton; fruiting bodies; insects; monitoring; planting date; protocols
Abstract:
... Plant mapping has been included and evolving in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. [Malvales: Malvaceae]) research and management for over 100 years. Here we describe the structure and use of a plant mapping program (PMAPplus) that includes capabilities to record and manage insect injury to fruiting bodies by position and branch, compare it to existing programs (COTMAN and PMAP), and illustrate its use ...

Abstract:
... Field experiments and supporting laboratory work were conducted to characterize the ability of the verde plant bug, Creontiades signatus (Distant), a boll-feeding sucking bug, to transmit a cotton seed and boll rot bacterial pathogen, Serratia marcescens (Bizio) (Enterobacteriales: Enterobacteriaceae). Serratia marcescens was originally isolated from bolls infested with verde plant bug in south Te ...
