EVALUATION OF GREEN PEACH APHID CONTROL ON CABBAGE WITH DIAMIDE INSECTICIDES, 2010

Evaluation of soil-applied systemic insecticides against cabbage aphid,brevicoryne brassicae and resultant survival of the primary parasitoid diaeretiella rapae on cabbage

Relative Susceptibility of Red and Green Color Morphs of the Green Peach Aphid to Foliar and Systemic Insecticides

Foliar and systemic insecticide bioassay techniques were developed for testing insecticide susceptibility to two color morphs of the green peach aphid. Six foliar and one systemic insecticide were used in our evaluations. These insecticides included three organophosphates, two pyrethroids, one organochlorine, and one chloronicotinyl. One of the green colored populations tested was collected fro...

Evaluation of Admire Soil Treatments on Colonization of Green Peach Aphid and Marketability of Lettuce

Admire (imidacloprid), applied as a soil treatment, protected lettuce plants from developing infestations of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer), for 60 -100 d after planting based on two small plot and two commercial field trials. Admire applied 7.6 an sub -seed furrow provided longer and more consistent protection from green peach aphid than treatments applied to the soil surface, as a...

Managing Western Flower Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) on Lettuce and Green Peach Aphid and Cabbage Aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Broccoli with Chemical Insecticides and the Entomopathogenic Fungus Beauveria bassiana (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae)

Received: October 27, 2016 Revised: December 23, 2016 Accepted: January 04, 2017 Abstract: Aims: Lettuce and broccoli are high value vegetable crops in California. The western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis on lettuce, and the cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae and the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae on broccoli are important insect pests that are frequently managed with chemical...

Gene expression during imidacloprid-induced hormesis in green peach aphid.

Imidacloprid-induced hormesis in the form of stimulated reproduction has previously been reported in green peach aphid, Myzus persicae. Changes in gene expression accompanying this hormetic response have not been previously investigated. In this study, expression of stress response (Hsp60), dispersal (OSD, TOL and ANT), and developmental (FPPS I) genes were examined for two generations during i...
