Landscape Plants Rated by Deer Resistance
E271 Bulletin For a comprehensive list of our publications visit www.rce.rutgers.edu Landscape Plants Rated by Deer Resistance Pedro Perdomo, Morris County Agricultural Agent Peter Nitzsche, Morris County Agricultural Agent David Drake, Ph.D., Extension Specialist in Wildlife Management The following is a list of landscape plants rated according to their resistance to deer damage. The list was compiled with input from nursery and landscape professionals, Cooperative Extension personnel, and Master Gardeners in Northern N.J. Realizing that no plant is deer proof, plants in the Rarely Damaged, and Seldom Rarely Damaged categories would be best for landscapes prone to deer damage. Plants Occasionally Severely Damaged and Frequently Severely Damaged are often preferred by deer and should only be planted with additional protection such as the use of fencing, repellents, etc. Success of any of these plants in the landscape will depend on local deer populations and weather conditions.

Now Is the Time to Plant Rhubarb by Susan Pelton, Uconn Home & Garden Education Center
Now is the Time to Plant Rhubarb By Susan Pelton, UConn Home & Garden Education Center Rhubarb is an herbaceous, cool-weather perennial vegetable that grows from short, thick rhizomes. It produces large, triangular-shaped leaves, edible stalks and small flowers. Although it is classified as a vegetable since seed- bearing fruit is not consumed, the red-green stalks, which are similar to celery in texture, have a tart taste and are used like a fruit in pies, preserves, and sauces. Rhubarb root has been used medicinally for thousands of years starting in China and then spreading to the Middle East and Europe by way of the Silk Road by merchants that included Marco Polo, among others. Chinese rhubarb root was highly valued by apothecaries for its laxative properties and its cost often outweighed other spices. In fact, the high cost inspired Europeans to attempt to cultivate the plant in the early 1600s. They were successful in replicating the medicinal properties but those cultivars, Rheum palmatum, R. tanguticum, and R. officinale but the variety known as Russian or Siberian rhubarb became the predecessor of modern rhubarb. Rheum rhabarbarum and the variety R. x hybridum are the rhubarbs that have been domesticated for food production. It was in the 1700s that one of the biggest changes to the culinary use of rhubarb came about due to the increase of the availability of sugar to the everyday person. It was the addition of sugar that took rhubarb out of the categories of medicine and savory dishes and put this vegetable into the realm of desserts and preserves. -

Entomopathogenic Fungi Associated with Certain Scale Insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in Egypt
Egypt. Acad. J. Biolog. Sci., 5(3): 211 -221 (2012) (Review Article) A. Entomology Email: [email protected] ISSN: 1687–8809 Received: 15/ 5 /2012 www.eajbs.eg.net Entomopathogenic fungi associated with certain scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in Egypt Ezz, N. A. Plant Protection Research Institute, Agriculture Research Center, Dokki, Giza, Egypt ABSTRACT Scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) are economically important pests in Egypt. Entomopathogenic fungi are considering principal pathogens among piercing sucking insects including scales. Very little attention was paid to the potential of fungal pathogens for scales in Egypt. In the following compilation, data on the record of fungal pathogen of the scale insects in Egypt, their host insects, host plants, locality distribution and identify are summarized. Assess of these entomopathogens in biocontrol experiments against scales and practical application under laboratory, field conditions and commercials utilization are also included. The aim of this review is to overview on the pathogenic fungal-scales relationships in Egypt. Keywords: Entomopathogenic, scale insects, Egypt INTRODUCTION Scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) are notorious pests, on perennial plants; as well as ornamentals and crops (Williams and Watson1988). Scale insects comprising 140 valid species names in 12 families in Egypt (Abd-Rabou, 2012). They are plant- sap feeding insects belong to Hemiptera closely related to the aphids, whiteflies and leaf hopper (Cook et al., 2002). Scales cause damage by sucking plant fluids from leaves, stems and sometimes roots. Some species feed on the underside of leaves, which can appear as stippling or chlorotic lesions. Heavily infested plants look unhealthy and produce little new growth and can cause extensive leaf yellowing, premature leaf drop (defoliation), branch dieback and plant death (Kosztarab, 1990). -
