Project Number: 13C-3361-4795 TITLE: Epidemiology and control of apple powdery mildew Principal Investigator: G. G. Grove, Plant Pathology, WSU-IAREC, Prosser, WA Objectives • Develop a forecasting model to improve management of apple powdery mildew, caused by Podosphaera leucotricha. • Develop biorational disease and fungicide-resistance management programs • Lower disease pressure through changes in cultural practices. 2001 progress in this area was not made due to lack of water and mildew.

Role of neonicotinyl insecticides in Washington apple integrated pest management. Part I. Control of lepidopteran pests
Three neonicotinyl insecticides, acetamiprid, thiacloprid and clothianidin, were evaluated for their impact on four species of lepidopteran pests of apple in Washington, the codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), the Pandemis leafroller, Pandemis pyrusana Kearfott, and the obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), and Lacanobia subjuncta (Grote & Robinson). None of the neonicotin...
متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part I: Analytical Approach
ABSTRACT- Bruising degrades the quality of fresh apple fruits. Reducing bruise damage is of utmost importance in designing and developing processing equipments. The main objective of the present study was to introduce an analytical method to predict the allowable static load applicable to apple fruits. To predict the strain energy absorbed by the fruit, a point load was applied on the solid sph...

متن کاملElucidation of the microbial complex having a causal role in the development of apple replant disease in washington.
ABSTRACT Systematic studies were conducted to elucidate the role of different soil microbial groups in the development of apple replant disease. Populations of targeted microorganisms were reduced by the application of semiselective biocides and soil pasteurization. Bacteria were not implicated in the disease, because application of the antibiotic chloramphenicol reduced soil populations of bac...
متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part II: Finite Element Approach
ABSTRACT- Mechanical damage degrades fruit quality in the chain from production to the consumption. Damage is due to static, impact and vibration loads during processes such as harvesting, transportation, sorting and bulk storage. In the present study finite element (FE) models were used to simulate the process of static bruising for apple fruits by contact of the fruit with a hard surface. Thr...
