متن کاملMealybug Control Studies on Pineapples
It is now generally accepted, as pointed out by Westgate (1945), that the pineapple mealybug, Pseudococcus brevipes (Ckll.), is present in Florida, causing wilt as in other, pineapple growing areas. Control of the pine apple mealybug and/or of the ants infesting the soil and plants is, furthermore, usually considered to effect control of the wilt of pineapples, as shown by Illingworth (1931).

متن کاملEffect of grafting on eggplant leaf gas exchanges under mediterranean greenhouse conditions
Grafting is an easier and faster approach than plant breeding to take advantage of both existing resistant plants, especially wild cultivars, and high-bred cultivars. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in leaf photosynthetic capacity of a hybrid eggplant Solanum melongena L., cv.

متن کاملAdjuvants to improve aerial control of the citrus mealybug Planococcus citri (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) using entomopathogenic nematodes.
The citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri, is a highly destructive pest of citrus, occurring only in the aerial parts of plants. Humidity will be one of the key factors to consider when using entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) as biological control agents. Different adjuvants can be added to suspensions of EPNs, to improve control as a foliar application. An aqueous suspension containing Heterorhabd...
