chlorosis, but the addition of urea to the solu tion appeared to enhance the effect of the biuret. Experiment 4. When different amounts of commercial urea and crystalline urea were ap plied to the soil, 10 weeks were necessary for the chlorosis to appear on the trees which had received 60 and 80 grams of the commercial urea. No chlorosis resulted from the crystal line urea. Experiment 5. As a r...
متن کاملTowards the identification and synthesis of the sex pheromone of the citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae).
The objective of this work was to characterize the sexual behavior of the citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, as the foundation for the isolation, identification, and synthesis of the complete sex pheromone of this species. Mating occurred in a time window of 2h, starting 1h before the onset of photophase. The large majority of tested insects mated in the first two days after eme...
متن کاملFactors affecting captures of male citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, in pheromone-baited traps
The citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae), is a world-wide pest of citrus (Heppner 1993) described originally in India (Stainton 1856). In the USA, it was initially found in Homestead, Florida and parts of Dade, Broward and Collier counties in 1993 (Heppner 1993). Its distribution is now widespread across Florida in citrus-growing regions, and is spread...
متن کاملAcoustic surveying of subterranean insect populations in citrus groves.
Subterranean insect pests cause considerable economic damage but their concealment makes detection difficult. A portable acoustic system was developed and tested for its potential to rate the likelihood that trees in citrus groves were infested with Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) larvae. The likelihood was rated independently by a computer program and an experienced listener that distinguished inse...
متن کاملMathematical modeling of citrus groves infected by huanglongbing.
Huanglongbing (citrus greening) is a bacterial disease that is significantly impacting the citrus industry in Florida and poses a risk to the remaining citrus-producing regions of the United States. A mathematical model of a grove infected by citrus greening is developed. An equilibrium stability analysis is presented. The basic reproductive number and its relation to the persistence of the dis...
