Colorado Potato Beetle Control with Transplant Drench Treatments of Admire to Bedding Trays of Tomatoes, 1996

Population Dynamics of the Colorado Potato Beetle in an Agroecosystem with Tomatoes and Potatoes with Management Implications to Processing Tomatoes

We evaluated the population dynamics of Colorado potato beetle in processing tomatoes and potatoes using immigration proÞles, density through time, rates of development and survivorship. We also evaluated the beetleÕs inßuence on yield of processing cultivars. Colorado potato beetle immigrated into both crops. The Þrst available crop had the earliest immigration event and higher immigrating adu...

//colorado Potato Beetle: Organic Control Options

Glycoalkaloid responses of potato to Colorado potato beetle defoliation.

Two experiments were conducted to measure the glycoalkaloid concentrations of potato tubers in response to Colorado potato beetle and manual defoliation. For plants defoliated by Colorado potato beetles, there was a significantly greater production of glycoalkaloids than in control plants and manually defoliated plants for both skin and inner tissue of tubers in experiment 1. In experiment 1, t...

Nutritional indices of the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Col.: Chrysomelidae) on six potato cultivars

سوسک کلرادوی سیب زمینی، Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)، یکی از آفات مهم سیب زمینی در ایران و جهان است. شاخص‌های تغذیه‌ای لارو‌های سن آخر این آفت روی برگ ارقام مختلف سیب زمینی (خاوران، ساوالان، لوتا، سانتا، سانته و آئولا) تحت شرایط آزمایشگاهی (دمای 1 ± ‌25 درجه سلسیوس، رطوبت نسبی 5‌ ± ‌65 در‌صد و دوره نوری 16 ساعت روشنایی و 8 ساعت تاریکی) بررسی شد. لاروهای پرورش‌یافته روی رقم سانته کم‌ترین کارا...

Chemical Ecology of the Colorado Potato Beetle,

The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) has been a major insect pest to potato farming for over 150 years and various control methods have been established to reduce its impact on potato fields. Crop rotation and pesticide use are currently the most widely used approaches, although alternative methods are being developed. Here we review the role of various volatile and nonvolatile chemicals involved i...
