Toxicity of Chromobacterium subtsugae to southern green stink bug (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) and corn rootworm (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
Diabrotica spp. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) beetles and southern green stink bugs, Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), are pests on corn, Zea mays L., and soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., as well as on cucurbits. Control of these insects has depended on chemicals. An alternative to chemical control is the use of biologicals. Use of bacteria, fungi, viruses, pheromones, and metabol...
متن کاملHost Recognition Responses of Western (Family: Chrysomelidae) Corn Rootworm Larvae to RNA Interference and Bt Corn
Western corn rootworm Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte is an important pest of corn whose larvae exhibit particular quantifiable patterns of locomotion after exposure to, and removal from, host roots and nonhost roots. Using EthoVision software, the behavior and locomotion of the western corn rootworm larvae was analyzed to determine the level of host recognition to germinated roots of di...
متن کاملComparison of haplotype frequencies differentiate fall armyworm (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) corn-strain populations from Florida and Brazil.
Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a major economic pest throughout the Western Hemisphere. Populations can be subdivided into two morphologically identical but genetically distinct strains (corn-strain and rice-strain) that differ in their host plant preferences. These strains can be distinguished by using polymorphisms in the mitochondrial cytochrom...
متن کاملWestern corn rootworm (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) beetle emergence from weedy Cry3Bbl rootworm-resistant transgenic corn.
Three greenhouse experiments were conducted to evaluate western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, beetle emergence from individual pots containing glyphosate-tolerant transgenic corn, Zea mays L., expressing the Cry3Bbl endotoxin from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (MON863), nontransgenic glyphosate-tolerant isoline corn, grassy weeds (giant foxtail, Set...
متن کاملRECENT RESEARCH ON THE WESTERN CORN ROOTWORM Western corn rootworm ( Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte) population dynamics
1 The western corn rootworm Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte is a major insect pest of field maize, Zea mays L. Larvae can cause substantial injury by feeding on maize roots. Larval feeding may destroy individual roots or root nodes, and reduce plant growth, stability, and yield. Costs associated with managing corn rootworms in continuous maize are annually one of the largest expenditures...
