Creator:: Rodman, Madison G.
Abstract:: Non-target effects are one of the greatest potential risks of weed biological control programs, and understanding non-target effects of biological control at the population level is crucial for predicting when they will occur and altering the perception of biological control as a whole. In this thesis, we assessed the ecological...

Creator:: Gut, Larry J.
Abstract:: Ovipositional behavior of the codling moth, Laspeyresia pomonella (L.), on several varieties of apples and pears grown in the Pacific Northwest was investigated during the spring/summer of 1979. Field studies showed that early in the season more eggs were laid on the Bosc variety than on several other apple and...

Creator:: Arshad, Muhammad, 1958-
Abstract:: Toxicological studies were carried out to evaluate the susceptibility of codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. to different insecticides. Bioassay procedures for adults and larvae were standardized in terms of posttreatment holding and temperature, age and sex of insects, insecticide formulations and selection of a reference strain. This study detected a...

Creator:: Fuller, Jason L.
Abstract:: The cinnabar moth, Tyria jacobaeae (L.) (Lepidoptera:Arctiidae), was released in 1959 to control the grassland weed tansy ragwort, Senecio jacobaea L. (Asteraceae), despite evidence that caterpillars of this species can feed on native plants within the genera Senecio and Packera. Previous studies confirmed the moth's ability to develop on the...

Creator:: Cox, Caroline Shipley
Abstract:: To assess the effect of summer moisture stress on the capacity of tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea L.) to compensate for defoliation by the cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae LT7), the performance of plants grown under different irrigation regimes was measured. The proportion of plants producing new leaves following defoliation, the number...
