Efficacy of three natural substances against apple aphid ( Aphis pomi De Geer , Aphididae , Homoptera ) under laboratory conditions
In 2008 the efficacy of three environmentally friendly substances against apple aphid (Aphis pomi) was tested. The selected substances were cinnamic acid and two plant extracts, namely glicolic extract of comfrey (Symphytum officinale) and fluid extract of marigold (Calendula officinalis). All of the substances were tested at 0.5, 1 and 5 % concentrations. The individuals of apple aphids were c...
متن کاملSusceptibilities of apple aphid and spirea aphid collected from apple in the Pacific Northwest to selected insecticides.
Laboratory bioassays using leaf disks of apple dipped in test solutions of insecticides demonstrated that the apple aphid, Aphis pomi De Geer, and the spirea aphid, Aphis spiraecola Patch, differed significantly in susceptibility to a number of insecticides registered for control of aphids on apple (Malus spp.). Compared with A. pomi, A. spiraecola was approximately four- and three-fold less su...
متن کاملDifferentiation between Aphis pomi and Aphis spiraecola using multiplex realâ•’time PCR based on DNA barcode sequences
The green apple aphid (Aphis pomi De Geer 1783) and the spirea aphid (Aphis spiraecola Patch 1914) are pests of apples in North America (Foottit et al. 2006). They play a role in disease transmission (Blackman and Eastop 2000) and affect healthy growth of their hosts (Kaakeh et al. 1993). Although management regimes exist to effectively control these pests, they differ significantly because of ...
متن کاملSpatial Variation of Woolly Apple Aphid (eriosoma Lanigerum, Hausmann) in a Genetically Diverse Apple Planting
There is an increasing requirement to breed durable resistances to woolly apple aphid (WAA) into apple cultivars. Genetically diverse apple plantings have been established in New Zealand with one aim to identify new sources of resistance to this pest, and also to allow the computation of parameters of genetic interest. Such computations are hindered by the uneven distribution of the pest in the...
متن کاملPredators of the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea (Pass.), in Asturian (NW Spain) apple orchards
Alternative strategies to the common practice of spraying with insecticide in order to control the rosy apple aphid Dysaphis plantaginea (Pass.) (Homoptera: Aphididae) are required. Biological control by natural enemies is a possible tool. In Asturies, despite the tradition of growing local cider apple trees, there are no studies about the community of D. plantaginea predators and their impact ...
