Suppression of Plutella xylostella and Trichoplusia ni in cole crops with attracticide formulations.
The three key lepidopteran pests of cole, Brassica oleracea L., crops in North America are diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae); cabbage looper; Trichoplusia ni (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae); and imported cabbageworm, Pieris rapae (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae). Two species-specific pheromone-based experimental attracticide formulations were evaluated against ...

J. Econ. Enlomo!. 75; 742-745 (1982) Action thresholds for lepidopterans on fresh market cabbage in New York are proposed. These are based on foliage consumption rates of the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hiibner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), imported cabbageworm, Pieris rapae (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), and diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), incorporated...
متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of Arthropod Predation on Pieris rapae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) Eggs and Larvae in Cabbage
Knowledge of factors causing mortality in herbivorous insects is essential to developing a better understanding of their population dynamics and more effective strategies to manage their abundance in crops. In this study we used 2 methods of predator exclusion to evaluate the effects of arthropod predators on Pieris rapae L. eggs and larvae on cabbages (Brassica oleracea variety capitata L.) in...
متن کاملDevelopment and evaluation of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect Pieris rapae remains in guts of arthropod predators
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect remains of Pieris rapae L. (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) immature stages in the guts of field collected arthropod predators. The assay can be used to help ascertain the relative importance of arthropod predator species in suppressing P. rapae in cabbage, Brassica oleracea var. capitata L. The ELISA is sensitive to all immature stage...
متن کاملHerlihy et al.: Distribution of Cotesia rubecula and Displacement of C. glomerata 461 DISTRIBUTION OF COTESIA RUBECULA (HYMENOPTERA: BRACONIDAE) AND ITS DISPLACEMENT OF COTESIA GLOMERATA IN EASTERN NORTH AMERICA
A survey was conducted from May to Oct of 2011 of the parasitoid community of the imported cabbageworm, Pieris rapae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), in cole crops in part of the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. The findings of our survey indicate that Cotesia rubecula (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) now occurs as far west as North Dakota and has become the dominant parasitoid of P. rapae in th...
