Some Environmental Factors Influencing Rearing of the Spruce
S AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Boyd Pitman for the M. S. in ENTOMOLOGY (Degree) (Major) Date thesis is presented y Title SOME ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCING REARING OF THE SPRUCE BUDWORM, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clem.) (LEPIDOPTERA: TORTRICIDAE) UNDER LABORATORY CONDITIONS. Abstract approved , (Major Professor) The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of controlled environmental factors upon the development of the spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana Clem.) and to utilize the information for im- proving mass rearing procedures. A standard and a green form of the bud - worm occurring in the Pacific Northwest were compared morphologically and as to their suitability for mass rearing. " An exploratory study demonstrated that both forms of the budworm could be reared in quantity in the laboratory under conditions outlined by Stehr, but that greater survival and efficiency of production would be needed for mass rearing purposes. Further experimentation revealed that, by manipulating environmental factors during the rearing process, the number of budworm generations could be increased from one that occurs normally to nearly three per year. For the standard form of the budworm, procedures were developed for in- creasing laboratory stock twelvefold per generation. Productivity of the green form was much less, indicating that the standard form may be better suited for laboratory rearing in quantity. Recommended rearing procedures consist of the following steps. Egg masses should be incubated at temperatures between 70 and 75 °F and a relative humidity near 77 percent. Under these conditions, embryo matur- ation and hibernacula site selection require approximately 8 to 9 days. The larvae should be left at incubation conditions for no longer than three weeks. -

Total soluble solid content (26.00B) and total sugars (14.07%) were maximum at maturity. Carbohydrates and carotene contents gradually increased up to November. Due to development in mucilage (carotene dilution) and other soluble solids, carbohydrates slightly decreased in November after that it was gradually increased at harvest time. These nutraceuticals reflected double sigmoid growth curve in bael. There was no carotene development in first two months of fruit growth and it’s development follows the trend as that of carbohydrates. -

It was first discovered in Hawaii in 2001 and, as of 2010, it has been reported from three Hawaiian Islands and intercepted as larvae and pupae in cargo en route to California. Larvae are highly polyphagous feeders, with at least 45 recorded hosts plants, and can cause extensive defoliation. The nettle caterpillar seems to prefer those plants in the palm (Arecaceae) and grasses (Poaceae) families but has been recorded feeding on many different weedy and ornamental plants in nurseries and at residences. In addition to plant damage, these larvae can Fig. -

The Isolation and Genetic Characterisation of a Novel Alphabaculovirus for the Microbial Control of Cryptophlebia Peltastica and Closely Related Tortricid Pests
RHODES UNIVERSITY Where leaders learn The isolation and genetic characterisation of a novel alphabaculovirus for the microbial control of Cryptophlebia peltastica and closely related tortricid pests Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY At RHODES UNIVERSITY By TAMRYN MARSBERG December 2016 ABSTRACT Cryptophlebia peltastica (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is an economically damaging pest of litchis and macadamias in South Africa. Cryptophlebia peltastica causes both pre- and post-harvest damage to litchis, reducing overall yields and thus classifying the pest as a phytosanitary risk. Various control methods have been implemented against C. peltastica in an integrated pest management programme. These control methods include chemical control, cultural control and biological control. However, these methods have not yet provided satisfactory control as of yet. As a result, an alternative control option needs to be identified and implemented into the IPM programme. An alternative method of control that has proved successful in other agricultural sectors and not yet implemented in the control of C. peltastica is that of microbial control, specifically the use of baculovirus biopesticides. This study aimed to isolate and characterise a novel baculovirus from a laboratory culture of C. peltastica that could be used as a commercially available baculovirus biopesticide. In order to isolate a baculovirus a laboratory culture of C. peltastica was successfully established at Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa. This is the first time a laboratory culture of C. peltastica has been established. This allowed for various biological aspects of the pest to be determined, which included: length of the life cycle, fecundity and time to oviposition, egg and larval development and percentage hatch. -
Conotrachelus Nenuphar

EPPO Categorization: A1 list view more categorizations online... EU Categorization: A1 Quarantine pest (Annex II A) EPPO Code: CONHNE more photos... HOSTS Conotrachelus nenuphar, a native weevil of North America, was originally a pest of native rosaceous plants. However, the introduction of exotic rosaceous plants into North America, notably cultivated plants such as apple ( Malus domestica) and peach (Prunus persica) trees, widened the host range of C. nenuphar and demonstrated its adaptability to new hosts (Maier, 1990). The distribution of C. nenuphar broadly conforms to the distribution of its native wild hosts Prunus nigra, Prunus americana and Prunus mexicana (Smith and Flessel, 1968). Other wild hosts include Amelanchier arborea, A. canadensis, Crataegus spp., Malus spp., Prunus alleghaniensis, P. americana, P. maritima, P. pensylvanica, P. pumila, P. salicina, P. serotina, P. virginiana and Sorbus aucuparia (Maier, 1990). Important cultivated hosts are apples, pears (Pyrus), peaches, plums and cherries (Prunus) and blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum). In addition to its rosaceous main hosts, C. nenuphar can also be found on blackcurrants (Ribes spp. - Grossulariaceae) and blueberries (Vaccinium spp. - Ericaceae) (Maier, 1990). Second generation C. nenuphar adults appear to attack a narrower range of some cultivated species than the first generation (Lampasona et al., 2020). Prunus, Pyrus and Malus spp. are widely cultivated throughout the Euro-Mediterranean region. In addition, if the pest was introduced to this region, the adaptability of the species to new hosts would probably result in an extended host range. -
