Insecticide Seed Treatments for Snap Beans
نویسندگان
چکیده
The most damaging insect pests are those that attack the pods and result in either damage or contamination of the processed product. The European corn borer (ECB) and to a lesser extent the corn earworm (CEW) are the major pod feeding pests with damage primarily from 2 generation ECB and late flights of CEW in August/September. Damage from both species occurs from flowering to harvest, creating a treatment window of 30-7 days before harvest. Pods are protected during this window with a 2-4 spray program when crop maturity coincides with moth flights. A typical spray program in Wisconsin includes a pyrethroid (Capture, Warrior or Mustang) frequently used in rotation with an organophosphate (Orthene).

European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner), is a major pest of processing snap bean because larvae are contaminants in pods. The incidence of O. nubilalis-contaminated beans has become uncommon in New York, possibly because widespread adoption of Bt field corn has suppressed populations. Snap bean fields located where Bt corn has been intensively grown in space and time may be at lower ri...
متن کاملGrowth and respiration patterns of snap bean fruits.
The relationship of respiration and growth of seed, pericarp tissue and whole fruit of snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) was studied. The whole fruit exhibited an apparent climacteric type of respiration pattern. This pattern resulted from an increase in CO(2) production by the enlarging seed followed by a rapid decrease in CO(2) evolution by the pericarp tissue, and the pattern was not associ...
متن کاملFactors Affecting Cotyledonal Cracking during the Germination of Beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris).
Wlhile studying cotyledonal abnormality an unusual type of injury was observed in snap beans which had been carefully hand-picked and handshelled. The injury consisted of one or more transverse breaks which extended partially or completely across the cotyledon, severing the vascular elements, figure 1. Not only was the movement of materials into the seedling impeded by the breaks but the cotyle...
متن کاملEffect of pest controlling neem and mata-raton leaf extracts on greenhouse gas emissions from urea-amended soil cultivated with beans: a greenhouse experiment.
In a previous laboratory experiment, extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss.) and Gliricidia sepium Jacquin, locally known as mata-raton, used to control pests on crops, inhibited emissions of CO(2) from a urea-amended soil, but not nitrification and N(2)O emissions. We investigated if these extracts when applied to beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) affected their development, soil characteri...
متن کاملPEST MANAGEMENT: DISEASES Efficacy of Fungicide and Insecticide Seed Treatments for Rice Stand Establishment and Growth
Stand establishment problems occur frequently in Arkansas rice fields and are commonly associated with cool soil temperatures (early planting) and saturated soils. There are several factors that affect rice stand establishment including diseases and insects. It is important to understand what pathogens or pests are the cause of stand problems in rice for managing stand establishment problems. I...
