abstract

ectomyelois ceratoniae zeller (lepidoptera.: pyralidae), is the key pest of pomegranate in iran. trichogramma wasps could be used as effective agents of biological control that can also be used effectively in ipm programs. the effect of host density on parasitism of trichogramma brassicae was studied by exposing densities of 4, 8, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 120 eggs of factitious host (sitotroga cerealella olivier) (lepidoptare.: pyralidae), in glass shell (1×10 cm) and controlled conditions. statistical analysis of functional response was conducted in two steps through sas software. the experiments were carried out at 20, 25 and 30?c. the parasite showed a type ii functional response at 25?c and a type iii at 20 and 30?c. the searching efficiency (a) and the handling time (th) at 25?c were 0.073± 0.011 and 0.311± 0.032, respectively. at 20 and 30?c, b was 0.002?0.0005 and 0.005?0.0007 respectively. th at 20 and 30?c were 0.619?0.028 and 0.425 ? 0.012. to compare the functional response of wasps at 20 and 30?c, an equation with indicator variable was employed. data analysis revealed that the parameters of functional responses are significantly different at 20 and 30?c.

functional response of trichogramma brassicae bez. (hym.;trichogrammatidae) to different egg densities of anagasta kuehniella zell. and plodia interpunctella hub.

functional response of trichogramma brassicae bez. to different densities of eggs of two host species anagasta kuehniella zell. and plodia interpunctella hub. was studied under laboratory conditions (24±1°c, 65±10% rh and 16: 8 l:d photoperiodism). one day old eggs of either host were offered to individual females of t.brassicae in densities 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 respectively in 21, 15, 1...

Three laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the side-effects of four common herbicides used to control weeds associated with local crops on egg of the parasitoid Trichogramma evanescens. These herbicides are Glyphosate 48%SL, Bromoxynil 24%EC, Thiobencarb 50% and Clodinafop-propargyl 15%WP. The biological aspects such% parasitism, % adult emergence, sex ratio, developmental period a...
