Population dynamics of western flower thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in nectarine orchards in British Columbia.
Development of a control strategy for thrips attacking nectarine trees depends on an understanding of their phenology, distribution, and life history as related to characteristics of nectarine orchards. To this end, we compared the overwintering behavior, distribution, and abundance of western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande), among 11 nectarine orchards located in the dry c...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal patterns of dispersal of western flower thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in nectarine orchards in British Columbia.
Thrips were sampled from six nectarine orchards in the Dry Central Interior, British Columbia, Canada, between April and June 1993 using yellow sticky cards on posts spaced around the perimeter of each orchard. Although 12 identified species of thrips were captured, >90% of individuals were the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande). The flight patterns and abundances of w...

The appearance of fresh fruits and vegetables is a primary criterion in making purchasing decisions. Product appearance is characterized by size, shape, form, color, condition and absence of defects. A wide range of preharvest factors can modulate the appearance of the harvested product. These include: (1) biological factors (pathological, entomological, animal); (2) physiological factors (phys...
متن کاملPreharvest control of Escherichia coli O157 in cattle.
Bovine manure is an important source of Escherichia coli O157 contamination of the environment and foods; therefore, effective interventions targeted at reducing the prevalence and magnitude of fecal E. coli O157 excretion by live cattle (preharvest) are desirable. Preharvest intervention methods can be grouped into 3 categories: 1) exposure reduction strategies, 2) exclusion strategies, and 3)...
متن کاملControl Strategies to Reduce Preharvest Rat Damage in Bangladesh
The principal objective of this study was to determine when during the year the control of bandicoot rats would be most cost-effective under the agricultural conditions existing in Bangladesh. An annual cycle in the rise and fall of burrow density was found. This argues for a management strategy directed at reducing rat damage at a specific time period within the year as opposed to a strategy o...
