Susceptibility of Microtheca Ochroloma (coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) to Botanical and Microbial Insecticide Formulations
The yellowmargined leaf beetle, Microtheca ochroloma Stål (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), is a key pest of organic crucifer production in the southern United States. The susceptibility of larvae and adults of M. ochroloma to some botanical and microbial insecticide formulations was evaluated using laboratory leaf-dip bioassays. Insecticides evaluated included OMRI (Organic Material Review Institut...
متن کاملECOLOGY AND POPULATION BIOLOGY Effects on Development of Immature Mexican Corn Rootworm (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)
Development of immature Mexican corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera zeae Krysan & Smith, was investigated at 8 temperatures ranging from 15 to 338C. Development to adult was only completed in the range from 15 to 308C; larvae failed to complete the 3rd instar at 31.5 and 338C. Development from hatch to adult emergence was fastest at 308C ('25 d), and slowest at 158C ('105 d). Developmental time...
متن کاملComparisons of ecorational and chemical insecticides against crucifer flea beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) on canola.
Studies were done comparing the insecticides SpinTor (spinosad), BotaniGard (Beauveria bassiana), Neemix (azadirachtin), and Surround (kaolin, a clay) with conventional chemical insecticides Capture (bifenthrin) and Helix XTra (thiamethoxam), all applied at seven rates in a 7-d assay to assess their impact on adult crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)...
متن کاملToxomerus duplicatus Wiedemann, 1830 (Diptera: Syrphidae) preying on Microtheca spp. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) larvae.
Microtheca spp. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) are insect pests primarily related to Brassicaceae crops. In the State of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), southern Brazil, they are found on forage turnip, Raphanus sativus L. var. oleiferus Metzg., which is commonly grown during fall/winter seasons. This work reports the predation of Microtheca spp. larvae by Toxomerus duplicatus Wiedemann, 1830 (Diptera: Sy...
متن کاملECOLOGY AND POPULATION BIOLOGY Sperm Precedence in Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae): Temporal Variation Assessed by Neutral Markers
Variation in sperm precedence was examined in the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, using neutral allozyme markers. Two temporal components were studied: (1) pairing duration and (2) time since initial pairing. We used two pairing protocols that differed in the timemales and femaleswere allowed tomate for Þrst and secondpairings.Whenpairingswere limited to 8 h each for the ...
