  • Arthropod Communities and Transgenic Cotton in the Western United States: Implications for Biological Control S.E
    284 Naranjo and Ellsworth ___________________________________________________________________ ARTHROPOD COMMUNITIES AND TRANSGENIC COTTON IN THE WESTERN UNITED STATES: IMPLICATIONS FOR BIOLOGICAL CONTROL S.E. Naranjo1 and P.C. Ellsworth2 1U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.A. 2University of Arizona, Maricopa, Arizona, U.S.A. INTRODUCTION Cotton, transgenically modified to express the insecticidal proteins of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), has been available commercially in the United States since 1996. Bt cotton is widely used throughout the cotton belt (Layton et al., 1999), and more than 65% of the acreage in Arizona has been planted to Bt cotton since 1997. In the low desert production areas of Arizona and California, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders), the pink bollworm, is the major target of Bt cotton. A number of other lepidopterous species occur in this area, but they are sporadic secondary pests of cotton whose population outbreaks are typically induced by indiscriminate use of broad-spectrum insecticides. As a result of the adoption of Bt-cotton and the coincident introduction and adoption of selective insect growth regulators for suppression of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), insecticide usage in Arizona cotton over the past decade as declined from a high of 12.5 applications per acre in 1995 to 1.9 in 1999 (Ellsworth and Jones, 2001). These reductions in insecticide use have broadened opportunities for all biological control approaches in cotton. Beyond concern for the maintenance of susceptibility in target pest populations there also are a number of ecological and environmental questions associated with use of transgenic crops, one of the most prominent being effects on non-target organisms.

  • LYGAEOIDEA La Superfamila Lygaeoidea (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomomorpha) Es Una De Las Mayores Y Más Diver- Sas, Con Más De 4000 Especies, De Heteroptera
    | 421 Resumen LYGAEOIDEA La superfamila Lygaeoidea (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomomorpha) es una de las mayores y más diver- sas, con más de 4000 especies, de Heteroptera. Los hábitats de las especies del grupo son variados, hay grupos arbóreos, geófilos y laminófilos. La mayoría se alimentan de semillas maduras, aunque las Blissidae y algunas Lygaeidae son succionadoras de savia, los Geocoridae son principalmente depredadoras y las Cle- radini (Rhyparochromidae) se alimentan de sangre de vertebrados. Las ninfas viven en los mismos hábitats que los adultos y se alimentan generalmente de las mismas plantas. Actualmente en los Lygaeoidea se reconocen 15 familias, de las cuales 12 han sido registradas de la región Neotropical y 11 de la Argentina: Berytidae, Blissidae, Colobathristidae, Cymidae, Geocoridae, Lygaeidae, Ninidae, Oxycarenidae, Pachygronthidae, Piesmatidae y Rhyparochromidae. Se presenta una breve historia taxonómica, aspectos filogenéticos y de la clasificación actual de la superfamilia, bibliografía de referencia y una clave para la identificación de las familias de la Argentina. Para cada familia se presenta una diagnosis, principales trabajos, aspectos de la bio- logía y la diversidad a nivel mundial y en la Argentina, así como claves para la determinación de los géneros presentes en el pais. Además, se reseña la importancia agroeconómica del grupo. Se adjunta un listado de las 154 especies citadas de Argentina.

  • Perspectives in Ecological Theory and Integrated Pest Management
    Perspectives in Ecological Theory and Integrated Pest Management Since the early days of integrated pest management a sound ecological foundation has been considered essential for the development of effective systems. From time to time, there have been attempts to evaluate the ways in which ecological theory is exploited in pest control, and to review the lessons that ecologists learn from pest management. In the last 20 years there have been many developments within the contribution of ecological theory to integrated pest management, and the objective of this book is to capture some of the new themes in both pest management and ecology that have emerged and to provide an updated assessment of the role that basic ecology plays in the development of rational and sustainable pest management practices. The major themes are examined, assessing the significance and potential impact of recent technological and conceptual developments for the future of integrated pest management. Marcos Kogan is Professor and Director Emeritus of the Integrated Plant Protection Center at Oregon State University. Paul Jepson has been Director of the Integrated Plant Protection Center at Oregon State University since 2002.
