Due to its prolific flower and fruit production, it was introduced into subtropical areas such as Florida and Hawai’i, where it is now naturalized and invasive. In an effort to find sustainable means to control R. tomentosa, a large-scale survey was mounted for biological control organisms.

  • (Pueraria Montana Var. Lobata Willd) in North Carolina
    ABSTRACT THORNTON, MELISSA ROSE. Arthopod Fauna Associated With Kudzu (Pueraria montana var. lobata Willd) In North Carolina. (Under the direction of David Orr.) The purpose of this research was to obtain background information to aid the implementation of a biological control program against the weed, kudzu (Pueraria montana var. lobata Willd). This research had several specific objectives that examined: 1) potential insect pollinators and seed production of kudzu in NC; 2) phytophagous insects and insect herbivory of kudzu foliage, seeds, vines and roots in NC; 3) abundance and diversity of foliar, vine, and root feeding insect communities on kudzu in comparison with those found on soybeans, the closest North American relative of kudzu in the United States. Kudzu is pollinated by native and naturalized insects in NC, in a pattern that varies by flower apparency rather than density. Arthropod herbivory by native generalists almost eliminated kudzu seed viability, while a naturalized Asian specialist consumed a nominal proportion of seeds. These data indicate that seed feeding arthropods would be poor candidates for importation biological control. Kudzu and soybeans shared the same foliar feeding insect communities and levels of defoliation, suggesting that foliage feeders are also poor choices for importation. No kudzu vine or root feeding insects or damage were found during the two years of this study, suggesting that future importation biological control research should focus on such feeders from Asia.

MILLER Department of Entomology, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota 55108 USA email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Capital-breeding Lepidoptera depend for reproduction on metabolic resources assembled either entirely or primarily by their larvae, the former termed 'perfect' the latter 'imperfect'. Empirical evidence suggests that maternal size determines capi- tal-breeder fecundity. The fecundity-maternal size relation is usually formulated as F = bW + a, where F is fecundity, W is final ma- ternal size in units such as weight of newly transformed pupae, b is the slope, and a the intercept. Exhaustive search yielded 71 fe- cundity-maternal pupal weight relations for 41 capital breeders in 15 families, 58 of which, including 2 previously unpublished, were based on individual specimens, and 13 on grouped specimens. In 22 individual-specimen relations, cohorts divided into 2 or more subgroups were reared simultaneously at different temperatures, on different diets, or exposed to other extrinsic factors. These 22 'multiform' relations were compared with 36 'uniform' relations, and where possible cohort subgroups were compared. Pupal weights of cohort subgroups were affected much oftener than underlying slopes and intercepts. Individual-specimen slopes based on transformed data ranged 0.52-2.09 with a mean and standard error of 1.13±0.04, and slopes did not differ significantly among perfect, imperfect, multiform, and uniform categories. Despite the evident similarity, one relation does not apply to all capital breed- ers.

  • Spatial Distribution of the Plum Scale Insect, Parlatoria Oleae (Colvee) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) Infesting Mango Trees in Egypt Moustafa M.S
    International journal of Horticulture, Agriculture and Food science (IJHAF) Vol-4, Issue-2, Mar-Apr, 2020 https://dx.doi.org/10.22161/ijhaf.4.2.1 ISSN: 2456-8635 Spatial distribution of the plum scale insect, Parlatoria oleae (Colvee) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) infesting mango trees in Egypt Moustafa M.S. Bakry Scale Insects and Mealybugs Research Dept., Plant Protection Research Institute, A.R.C, Dokii, Giza, Egypt. [email protected] Abstract— The aim of the present study was to examine the spatial distribution for monitoring populations of Parlatoria oleae (Colvee) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) infesting mango trees during two successive years (2016–2018) in Luxor Governorate, Egypt. The obtained results showed that insect population of P. oleae occurred on mango trees all the year round and has three peaks of seasonal activity per year, which was recorded in October, April and July during the first year (2016/2017) and through in November, April and July during the second year (2017/2018). Data were analyzed using twenty one distribution indices. All indices of distribution indicated significant aggregation behaviour in each year, except, the K values of the negative binomial distribution of the total P. oleae population ranged about 15-17 for each year during the two successive years, indicating random behavior. The results of this research can be used to draft monitoring methods for this pest and establishing IPM strategies for P. oleae. Keywords— Parlatoria oleae, population density, distribution patterns, directional preference, mango trees. I. INTRODUCTION understanding of the spatial distribution i.e. (regular, random In Egypt, mango trees (Mangifera indica L.) are subjected or aggregated) of populations provides useful information, not to infestation by several different pests.

  • Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Certain Tomato Cultivars

(Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Certain Tomato Cultivars Shehata EA* Plant Protection Department, Plant Protection Research Institute, Egypt *Corresponding author: Eman A. Shehata, Plant Protection Department, Plant Protection Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt, Tel: 201012627839; Email: [email protected] Received Date: August 04, 2021; Published Date: August 18, 2021 Abstract The present study was carried out throughout two successive growing seasons (2018/2019 and 2019/2020) at Mansoura district, Dakhlia Governorate, Egypt, to study the performance of some tomato cultivars to infestation by the cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii (Glov.) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and their spatial distribution patterns. The obtained results showed that insect population of A. gossypii their susceptibility to population density of A. gossypii. Hybrid T4 84 tomato cultivar was the highest population density and was occurred on all different tomato cultivars all the season round. These varieties varied significantly in rated as highly susceptible (H.S.) to infestation by the total population density of A. gossypii, followed by Hybrid T4 70 and Fiona cultivars were appeared as susceptible (S), while, Maram and Rawan cultivars were observed to be relatively resistant (RR). But, Beto 86 cultivar had the lowest population density and was rated as relative resistant (MR) of pest over the entire season. These pieces of information can be useful for establishing IPM strategies against this pest. Data were analysed using twenty the tested tomato cultivars. This study may be add some information to be used in integrated pest management programs for two distribution indices.
