Captures of Boll Weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Relation to Trap Orientation and Distance From Brush Lines.
Eradication programs for the boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman) rely on pheromone-baited traps to trigger insecticide treatments and monitor program progress. A key objective of monitoring in these programs is the timely detection of incipient weevil populations to limit or prevent re-infestation. Therefore, improvements in the effectiveness of trapping would enhance efforts to ac...
متن کاملLongevity of Overwintered Boll Weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) On Pre-fruiting Cotton
Field-cage studies have indicated that prefruiting cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is not nutritionally adequate to support extended longevity of overwintered boll weevils (Anthonomus grandis Boheman), but these studies did not separate the respective effects of environment and nutrition on survival. The longevity of trapcaptured overwintered weevils fed pre-fruiting cotton under controlled cond...
متن کاملPotential for transport of boll weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) to the cotton gin within cotton modules.
There is concern that cotton gins located in boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman, eradication zones serving customers in adjacent infested zones may serve as a site for boll weevil reintroductions if weevils are transported alive inside cotton modules. We surveyed fields in three distinct areas of Texas and found that weevils can be present in large numbers in cotton fields that hav...
متن کاملMutual Interference of Pheromone Traps Within Trap Lines on Captures of Boll Weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
Traps baitedwith the synthetic aggregation pheromoneof the bollweevil (Anthonomus grandis Boheman) are often used to monitor population ßuctuations, distribution, and behavior. However, many factors generate variability in daily captures, making interpretation of trapping data difÞcult. Previous studies have shown that wind speed in the microenvironment around a trap can greatly affect numbers ...
متن کاملDispersal of boll weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) from cotton modules before ginning.
We characterized the level of risk of boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman, reintroduction to an eradication zone posed by dispersal from cotton modules during and after transport to the gin. Mark-release-recapture experiments in August and September in Texas indicated that most weevils disperse rapidly from the module surface, temperature permitting, unless confined under a module t...
