INTRODUCTION Thi paper covers he twenty-fifth ·ear for whi h pe t interception list have been i ued. The perio of time covered by the early mimeographed li ts were variable. The fir t prin ed list were is u d quar erly beginning in 1915. large part of the intercep ion recorded in the early lists were made by State inspector . After quarantine _~ o. 37 became effective and most of the nur ery stock in pection work wa done by Federal in pector , with a con equent increa e in the proportion of interception by them publica ion of he l' t was put on an annual basi . The fir t of the annual li ts however, covered 15 mon hs, October 1, 1919, to D ecember 31 1920. In ercepti n for the calendar year 1924 and 1925 were i" ued in one list and th li t wa 1 ut on a fi cal-year ba is again when interception for January 1, 1930, to June 30 1931 were publi hed in one lis . From the b ginning interception ha e been made on a "ide Yarie y of hosts from all part of he world. The number of inter eption.., made increa ed from le than 1 500 a ~ ·ear to more than 80,000 a year, e,·en though many record formerly included were ornitted fr m the later li"'t . During recent year it has been neces ary to reduce dra ticall · the recording of interception and to make brief ummaries only for a large part of tho e recorded.

  • Insecticidal Activity of Floral, Foliar, and Root Extracts of Tagetes Minuta
    This file was created by scanning the printed publication. Errors identified by the software have been corrected; however, some errors may remain. STORED-PRODUCTENTOMOLOGY Insecticidal Activity of Floral, Foliar, and Root Extracts of .Tagetes minuta (Asterales: Asteraceae) Against Adult Mexican Bean Weevils (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) DAVID K. WEAVER,l CARL D. WELLS,2.3FLORENCE V. DUNKEL, WOLFGANG BERTSCH,2 SHARLENE E. SING,l AND SHOBHA SRIHARAN4 Department of Entomology, Montana State University, Bozeman, MT 59717 J. Econ. Entomol. 87(6): 1718-1725 (1994) ABSTRACT Experiments were conducted to determine speed of action and toxicities of extracts of Tagetes minuta L., a source of naturally occurring insecticidal compounds. LC50 values for male and female Mexican bean weevils, Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boheman), were determined for /loral, foliar, and root extracts of T. minuta. The 24-h LCso values ranged from 138 lJ-g/cm2 for males exposed to the root extract (most susceptible) to 803 wlJcm2 for females exposed to the foliar extract (least susceptible). Increasing the duration of exposure 2 to 48 h decreased all LCso values 20-30 lJ-g/cm • Males were more susceptible than females. The time to incapacitation for 50% of the test insects (IT 50) for floral and foliar extracts indicated fast-acting, volatile components, whereas the root extract data indicated slower-acting components, likely a result of the interaction of photophase with time- dependent efficacy. Floral and foliar extracts of T. minuta may be useful as insecticides for controlling stored-product pests. KEY WORDS Zabrotes subfasciatus, Tagetes minuta, extracts MARIGOLDS,Tagetes spp., are a useful intercrop extract was 8.1 mg/g for Rhyzopertha dominica in agriculture.

  • Solutions from an Environmental, Political, Social and Economic Perspective
    Morocco’s economy is growing at a sustained pace involving critical development activities in sectors like: Industry; agriculture; tourism; and energy. The water demand of these sectors will have to be met against the backdrop of shrinking water resources and amidst rapidly growing competition for water use. For the Public Disclosure Authorized country, adaptation to climate change is the cornerstone of any program or policy on sustainable development. Some economic sectors or ecosystems are more sensitive than others are to climate change and groundwater depletion is at the centre of all these concerns.

D. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The research presented in this thesis could not have been carried out without the expertise and cooperation of others in the scientific community. Significant contributions were made by colleagues here at Washington State University, at the United States Department of Agriculture and at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. I would like to start by thanking my committee members Dr. Lori Carris, Dr. Lisa Castlebury, Dr. Pat Okubara and Dr. Dorrie Main, who provided guidance on procedure, feedback on my research as well as contacts and laboratory resources. Dr. André Lévesque of AAFC initially alerted me to the prospect of collaboration with other AAFC Tilletia researchers and placed me in contact with Dr. Sarah Hambleton, whose lab sequenced four out of five strains of Tilletia used in this study (CSSP CRTI 09-462RD). Dr. Prasad Kesanakurti and Jeff Cullis coordinated my access to AAFC’s genome and transcriptome data for these species.
