Contract administrator: Mary Lou Bricker ([email protected]) (509) 335-7667; or Tom Kelly ([email protected]); (509) 335-3691 Objectives: 1. Modify and validate fall pheromone trap sampling as a method of identifying high-risk orchards for spring sampling (‘Delicious’ and ‘Golden Delicious’). 2. Determine the relative susceptibility to C. verbasci damage of apple cultivars other than ‘Delicious’ and ‘Golden Delicious’. 3. Develop provisional treatment thresholds on susceptible apple cultivars that currently have none.

Pest phenology and evaluation of traps and pheromone lures for monitoring flight activity of obliquebanded leafroller (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in Minnesota apple orchards.
The efficacy of two trap designs (Pherocon 1C "wing" trap versus Pherocon VI "delta" trap) and two pheromone blends for monitoring obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), was evaluated in Minnesota apple orchards during the 2001 and 2002 field seasons. Two distinct flight periods of C. rosaceana were recorded yearly in Minnesota. Overwintered C. rosaceana larvae resumed acti...
متن کاملComparison of sex pheromone traps for monitoring pink hibiscus mealybug (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae).
The pink hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is a highly polyphagous pest that invaded Florida in 2002 and has recently been reported from several locations in Louisiana. Although identification of its sex pheromone in 2004 improved monitoring capabilities tremendously, the effectiveness and efficiency of different pheromone trap designs for capturin...
متن کاملPotential of high-density pheromone-releasing microtraps for control of codling moth Cydia pomonella and obliquebanded leafroller Choristoneura rosaceana
Recent large-cage studies with codling moth Cydia pomonella (L.) reveal that the removal of moths from an apple orchard using pheromone-releasing traps is more effective at reducing capture in a central monitoring trap than is a mating disruption protocol without kill/capture. The present study uses open orchard 0.2-ha plots comparing a high-density trapping scenario with mating disruption to c...
متن کاملEvaluation of pheromone-baited traps for winter moth and Bruce spanworm (Lepidoptera: Geometridae).
We tested different pheromone-baited traps for surveying winter moth, Operophtera brumata (L.) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae), populations in eastern North America. We compared male catch at Pherocon 1C sticky traps with various large capacity traps and showed that Universal Moth traps with white bottoms caught more winter moths than any other trap type. We ran the experiment on Cape Cod, MA, where...

One of the most important pest in the Oak forest of Kurdistan province is Oak leaf roller moth, Tortrix viridana L. (Lep.: Tortricidae). Use of pheromone trap is one of the suitable methods for monitoring and controlling of the pest. In this work, three main factors which affect the efficiency of traps including trap type, pheromone dose and installation height trap were studied. Four types of ...
