Attractivity of plant volatiles and a semichemical-based bait to the western spotted cucumber beetle, Diabrotica undecimpunctata Mannerheim (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Creator:

Hongtrakul, Tawatchai

Abstract:

The adult western spotted cucumber beetle (WSCB), Diabrotica undecimpunctata undecimpunctata Mannerheim is considered a major pest of snap beans grown for processing in Western Oregon.

Field and greenhouse studies with Acalymma and Diabrotica : protection of cucurbits with a kaolin-based particle film : feeding damage to cucumbers with and without cucurbitacin

Creator:

Reich, Joel A.

Abstract:

Research was conducted in the field and greenhouse to determine if a kaolinite-based particle film, Surround®, would reduce colonization and early season feeding damage in cucurbits by the Western Striped Cucumber Beetle, Acalymma trivitattum (Mannerheim). Greenhouse studies were designed to determine effect of particle film on cucumber dry weight production...
