Follow the directions and need all precautions on the labels. Store pesticides in original containers under lock and key—out of the reach of children and animals—and away from food and feed. Apply pesticides so that they do not endanger humans, livestock, crops, beneficial insects, fish, and wildlife. Do not apply pesticides when there is danger of drift, when honey bees or other' pol- linating insects are visiting plants, or in ways that may contaminate water or leave illegal resi- dues. Avoid prolonged inhalation of pesticide sprays or dusts; wear protective clothing and equipment if specified on the container. If your hands become contaminated with a pesticide, do not eat or drink until you have washed In case a pesticide is swallowed or gets in the eyes, follow the first aid treatment given on the label, and get prompt medical attention. If a pesticide is spilled on your skin or clothing, remove clothing immediately and wash skin thoroughly. Do not clean spray equipment or dump excess spray material near ponds, streams, or wells Be- cause It is difficult to remove all traces of herbicides from equipment, do not use the same equip- ment for insecticides or fungicides that you use for herbicides. Dispose of empty pesticide containers promptly. Have them buried at a sanitary land-fill dump or crush and bury them in a level, isolated place. NOTE : Some States have restrictions on the use of certain pesticides. Check your State and local regulations. Also, because registrations of pesticides are under constant review by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency, consult your county agricultural agent or State Extension spe- cialist to be sure the intended use is still registered.

  • Chemical Constituents and Ovicidal Effects of Mahlab, Prunus Mahaleb L. Kernels Oil on Cotton Leafworm, Spodoptera Littoralis (Boisd.) Eggs
    JOURNAL OF PLANT PROTECTION RESEARCH Vol. 56, No. 3 (2016) Chemical constituents and ovicidal effects of mahlab, Prunus mahaleb L. kernels oil on cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.) eggs Hala M. Mead*, Samah N. El-Shafiey, Hend M. Sabry Plant Protection Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Dokki, 44516 Giza, Egypt Received: April 1, 2016 Accepted: August 19, 2016 Abstract: The carried out investigations evaluated ovicidal activity of mahlab, Prunus mahaleb L. kernel oil against cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.). The chemical constituents of the fixed oil of mahlab were analyzed using gas-liquid chromatography (GLC). Timnodonic (33.07%), oleic (28.71%) and linoleic (24.35%) were the basic fatty acids, while the major hydrocarbon and sterol were found to be heneicosane (62.57%) and β-sitosterol (10.57%). The LC50 values for the one-day-old egg masses were found to be more susceptible than 3-day-old ones. Moreover, the leaf dip technique occurred to be more efficient than spraying technique. The results also showed abnormalities in the external morphology of egg shell, chorion surface, shell imprints and aeropyles of S. littora- lis eggs treated with mahlab and KZ oils as compared to a control by using scanning electron microscope. Generally, the tested oils significantly reduced the activities of transaminase enzymes (AST and ALT), acid and alkaline phosphatases and total soluble protein except mahlab oil on acid phosphatase as compared to a control. Additionally, the oils of both mahlab and KZ oil affected some bio- logical aspects such as incubation period, larval duration, larval mortality and pupal weight comparing to a control.

  • Anomalous Dark Growth Rings in Black Cherry
    FIELD NOTE Anomalous Dark Growth Rings in Black Cherry Robert P. Long, David W. Trimpey, Michael C. Wiemann, and Susan L. Stout Anomalous dark growth rings have been observed in black cherry (Prunus serotina) sawlogs from northwestern Pennsylvania making the logs unsuitable for veneer products. Thirty-six cross sections with dark rings, each traceable to one of ten stands, were obtained from a local mill and sections were dated and annual ring widths were measured. One or more dark rings were found in 30 of the 36 cross sections. The most frequent years in which dark rings formed were 1994, on 55% of cross sections, and 1995, on 72% of cross sections. Both years were coincident with widespread cherry scallop shell moth (Hydria prunivorata) outbreaks. GIS layers and maps obtained from the Allegheny National Forest were used to document cherry scallop shell moth defoliations in these stands. These rings show a darkened discoloration through all or portions of the annual ring without characteristics typical of gum spots or gum defects caused ABSTRACT by traumatic injury from bark beetles or cambium miners. Microscopic examination of the rings revealed darkened fiber cell walls, but no other cellular abnormalities. Dark rings are more common in stands with a high proportion of the total basal area composed of black cherry. These stands also are more susceptible to repeated defoliations from cherry scallop shell moth. lack cherry (Prunus serotina) is one of the most valuable east- Methods ern hardwood timber species, and some of the highest quality Thirty-six cross sections or partial cross sections from nine dif- Bcherry originates in northwestern Pennsylvania (Wieden- ferent stands were obtained from a private industrial landowner in beck et al.
