  • Chapter 9. Arthropods of Cereal Crops in Canadian Grasslands
    217 Chapter 9 Arthropods of Cereal Crops in Canadian Grasslands John Gavloski Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives, Crops Knowledge Centre, 65 3rd Ave. NE, Carman, Manitoba, Canada R0G 0J0 Scott Meers Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development, 301 Horticultural Station Road East, S.S. #4, Brooks, Alberta, Canada T1R 1E6 Abstract. Cereal crops are a major aspect of the Canadian prairie landscape. This chapter focuses on insects of small grain cereals (wheat, oats, barley, and rye), but not on larger grains such as corn, which are less abundant on the Canadian prairies. Settlement of the Canadian prairies resulted in the replacement of vast amounts of native prairie plants with cereal crops. Many native insects adapted and flourished in this new habitat. Many alien insect species have also been accidentally introduced and are now pests of cereal crops. Other insects have been purposely introduced to regulate the populations of insect pests of cereal crops. Insect species are presented in feeding guilds in this chapter. Insects within a feeding guild feed on the same or a similar resource and may at times compete for this resource. Changes in cropping practices and varieties can also have an impact on the insect communities on cereal crops. Such interactions will also be described. Résumé. Les cultures de céréales occupent une place très importante dans le paysage des prairies canadiennes. Le présent chapitre porte principalement sur les insectes qui s’attaquent aux petites céréales (blé, avoine, orge et seigle), et non sur ceux qui se nourrissent de céréales à graines plus grosses — par exemple, le maïs — moins abondantes dans les prairies canadiennes.

McVey Message from Ronnie Coffman, Vice Chair of the BGRI Dear colleagues, The availability of wheat, a food staple in so many developing countries, is once again fueling rising food prices. The high price of food, and wheat in particular, sparks concern among world leaders because food security issues are frequently behind violent protests. Most recently, they were a factor in the unrest among Tunisians, who toppled their president while neighboring states sped up their purchases of wheat to secure supplies. High prices are being fueled by the devastating floods in Australia, fire and drought in Russia (which closed their export markets), strong North African demand, and the dry season in the U.S. Analysts are saying that wheat futures may not reach their 2008 peak, but some estimate prices as high as US$9 bushel. These prices are a further call to action for wheat scientists around the world to continue to breed new varieties that are resistant to the vagaries of drought and flooding, and the persistent challenges of stem rust and yellow rust. Wheat rust scientists, including molecular geneticists and pathologists, as well as wheat breeders and others with an interest in the rusts of wheat, particularly yellow rust and stem rust will be gathering in St. Paul, Minnesota, 13-16 June 2011, for the BGRI 2011 Technical Workshop. St. Paul is home to the USDA Cereal Disease Laboratory, and the University of Minnesota, Norman Borlaug’s alma mater and the place of Stakman’s classic work on stem rust.
