Aspectos biológicos da Traça-da-Batatinha Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

Adult carbohydrate feeding affects reproduction of Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae).

Reproduction of most insects depend on nutrients accumulated during the larval stage, but many lepidopteran species will also depend on nutrients obtained at the adult stage. Feeding at the adult stage allows the intake of carbohydrate and amino acid rich solutions, which may have an effect on the species reproduction and population growth. The objectives of the current study were to characteri...

Disruption of Phthorimaea operculella (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) oviposition by the application of host plant volatiles

BACKGROUND Phthorimaea operculella is a key pest of potato. The authors characterised the P. operculella olfactory system, selected the most bioactive host plant volatiles and evaluated their potential application in pest management. The electrophysiological responses of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) housed in long sensilla trichodea of P. operculella to plant volatiles and the two main sex...

Evaluation of genetically modified potatoes against the potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) under laboratory and non-refrigerated store conditions in South Africa

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL Insecticidal Activity of the Granulosis Virus in Combinationwith Neem Products and Talc Powder Against the Potato Tuberworm Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

بررسی تاثیر تنش‌های دمایی روی سامانه ایمنی بید سیب‌زمینی Phthorimaea operculella (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

سلول‌های خونی حشرات، یکی از اجزای مهم سیستم ایمنی حشرات در برابر انواع تنش­ها مانند حمله بیمار‌گرها، پارازیتوئید‌ها، دوره گرسنگی و تغییرات دما می‌باشند. شناخت ویژگی‌های سلول‌های خونی و فراوانی آن‌ها در مطالعات ایمنی‌شناسی سلولی در جهت کنترل بهتر آفت به ما کمک خواهد کرد. در این تحقیق سلول‌های خونی لارو سن چهار Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) پس از رنگ‌آمیزی با Giemsa با میکروسکوپ نوری و بزرگ‌نم...
