Effect of sugar spraying on host plant resistance to western flower thrips in tomato
Sugar spraying can cause induced plant resistance. In this study we investigated the effects of sugar spraying on the resistance to western flower thrips, WFT, Frankliniella occidentalis on tomato. We tested three different sugars: sucrose, fructose and glucose, at four concentrations: 0, 1, 10 and 100 ppm, to induce resistance of the cultivated tomato (var. Moneymaker). Bioassays conducted 2 w...
متن کاملCan Mass Trapping Reduce Thrips Damage and Is It Economically Viable? Management of the Western Flower Thrips in Strawberry
The western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is a cosmopolitan, polyphagous insect pest that causes bronzing to fruit of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa). The main aim of this study was to test whether mass trapping could reduce damage and to predict whether this approach would be economically viable. In semi-protected strawberry crops, mass trapping...
متن کاملInfluence of Prey Availability and Induced Host-plant Resistance on Omnivory by Western Flower Thrips
Theory predicts that the balance of nutritional needs, food availability, and the quality of particular food items are important factors in the feeding decisions of omnivorous animals. In this study we investigate factors that affect the feeding decisions of an omnivorous thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) that eats both animal prey and plant foliage. In the presence of prey (mite eggs), adult...
متن کاملReitz: Biology and Pest Status of Western Flower Thrips 7 BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY OF THE WESTERN FLOWER THRIPS (THYSANOPTERA: THRIPIDAE): THE MAKING OF A PEST
In the past 30 years, western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), has become one of the most important agricultural pests worldwide. Certain biological attributes of this insect predispose it to be a direct pest across a wide range of crops. In addition to the direct damage it can cause, this species is an efficient vector of Tomato spotted wilt virus...
متن کاملComparison of seven methods for rearing western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)
ABSTRACT-The species Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande),western flower thrips, is a highly polyphagous pest and an important vector of tospoviruses on several crops and ornamental plants. Western flower thrips has been introduced throughout the world and has been subject to many biological studies including mass rearing. In this survey, seven common mass rearing methods of F. occidentalis we...
