Frances Johnston August 2005 FORWARD “In a small section of the garden a tiny weed spoke to the blooms that grew there. ‘Why,’ he asked, ‘does the gardener seek to kill me? Do I not have a right to life? Are my leaves not green, as yours are? Is it too much to ask that I be allowed to grow and see the sun?’ The blooms pondered on this, and decided to ask the gardener to spare the weed. He did so. Day by day the weed grew, stronger and stronger, taller and taller, its leaves covering the other plants, its roots spreading.

Annals of the Entomological Society of America 112: 318-329. 3 https://doi.org/10.1093/aesa/say043 4 5 6 Trap Crops and Insectary Plants in the Order Brassicales 7 Francisco Rubén Badenes-Perez 8 Instituto de Ciencias Agrarias, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 28006 9 Madrid, Spain 10 E-mail: [email protected] 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ABSTRACT This paper reviews the most important cases of trap crops and insectary 26 plants in the order Brassicales. Most trap crops in the order Brassicales target insects that 27 are specialist in plants belonging to this order, such as the diamondback moth, Plutella 28 xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), the pollen beetle, Meligethes aeneus Fabricius 29 (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae), and flea beetles inthe genera Phyllotreta Psylliodes 30 (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). In most cases, the mode of action of these trap crops is the 31 preferential attraction of the insect pest for the trap crop located next to the main crop. 32 With one exception, these trap crops in the order Brassicales have been used with 33 brassicaceous crops. Insectary plants in the order Brassicales attract a wide variety of 34 natural enemies, but most studies focus on their effect on aphidofagous hoverflies and 35 parasitoids. The parasitoids benefiting from insectary plants in the order Brassicales 36 target insects pests ranging from specialists, such as P. xylostella, to highly polyfagous, 37 such as the stink bugs Euschistus conspersus Uhler and Thyanta pallidovirens Stål 38 (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae).

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.

  • Vegetables & Herbs
    Vegetable and Herb Information This listing of vegetables, herbs, and a few fruits is intended to include information that is both informative and useful. While we all eat and enjoy these tasty and nutritious foods, we often know very little about them. While there is a lot to know, we have attempted to include the obvious and most important: Suggestions on how to select them in the market or from one's own garden, how best to prepare them, and their nutritional values. We have also tried to include their history and place of origin, a few useful botanical terms and phrases, and basic botanical and taxonomic relationships to place some context around them. Please be aware that Tucker Farms does not grow everything on this listing, but offers this information on the premise, paraphrasing Thomas Jefferson, that an educated public, given the correct information, will know what to do with it. Generally speaking, Tucker Farms does not sell vegetables to the general public. But having said that, if one calls Steve Tucker during the growing season sufficiently ahead of time to place an order to be filled on Friday, he just might fill your order while he is preparing vegetables for his commercial customers. Genus species Vegetable subspecies Variety/Cultivar Description Cooking Hints/Suggestions Native to the Mediterranean region, the artichoke is the edible flower bud of a thistle-like plant in the sunflower family.
