Documentation of the side effects of pesticides on
arthropod natural enemies has expanded rapidly since the
1950's as part of an increase in non-target side effects
literature. Most reviews have been based on empirical
analysis of selected literature. The SELCTV database was
developed to make a larger information base accessible...
Humpback whale populations in Antarctica are recovering after intensecommercial whaling in the 20th century. Along the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP)this recovery is occurring in an environment that is experiencing the fastest warming ofany region on the planet. To begin to understand the dynamics of this recovery undersuch dramatic climate change,...

Reversion of resistance to the organotin (OT) acaricide
cyhexatin was documented for the twospotted spider mite,
Tetranychus urticae (Koch), by laboratory isolation of a
field resistant colony. After 22 generations of no
selection the colony reverted back to susceptible.
Studies were conducted in 1985 and 1986 on susceptible
and resistant...
European Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is an important crop in the Pacific Northwest where around 5% of the world's hazelnuts are produced. Hazelnut production in the Pacific Northwest is threatened by eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host resistance is a useful strategy to control disease,...
Brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations currently exist in less than half of their historic range in the state of New Jersey. The remaining populations are confined to the northwestern part of the state in the Highlands, Appalachian Ridge and Valley, and Piedmont physiographic provinces, with the exception of Mason's Run,...
This laboratory bioassay focused on lethal and sublethal effects of five
insecticides (chlorantraniliprole, cyantraniliprole, spinetoram, novaluron, and lambda-cyhalothrin) and two fungicide treatments (sulfur and a mixture of copper hydroxide and
mancozeb) on the predatory mired bug Deraeocoris brevis (Uhler) (Hemiptera: Miridae) using
second instars and adult males and females. Formulated...

The feasibility of managing codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), with mixtures
of Bacillus thuringiensis-based microbial and selected chemical insecticides was
studied under laboratory and field conditions. Joint actions (synergism, additivity and
antagonism) of these mixtures were determined for both egg and larval stages. Higher
rates of microbial control agents (MCAs),...
Potentially relevant literature for the years 1990-1999 was identified by (a) conducting keyword searches of computerized bibliographic databases, especially CAB Abstracts and Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts, (b) reading through the tables of contents of a few especially relevant journals, (c) searching the internet for pertinent bibliographies, and (d) to...
Using bulked segregant analysis, five RAPD markers were identified that were
linked in coupling to a gene conferring complete resistance to eastern filbert blight caused
by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). Two
modified backcross populations were inoculated and scored for resistance to the pathogen
and...
Genetics, gene flow, and distribution of pesticide
resistance traits were examined for organophosphate (OP)
resistance in three beneficial phytoseiid mites. Levels
and genetics of OP resistance in Amblyseius andersoni
were examined first. Laboratory strains from Italy and
Oregon, USA, were compared in susceptibility to
insecticides used in western Oregon fruit...
The heritability of resistance to eastern filbert blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala, in European hazelnut (Corylus avellana) was evaluated in the progeny of seven cultivars crossed in 12 combinations. Progeny produced by crossing 'VR6-28' with three susceptible cultivars segregated 1:1 for complete resistance to eastern filbert blight. Histograms of disease...
Eastern filbert blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller,
is a serious threat to hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) production. Resistant
cultivars offer the best control. Screening systems were needed to reliably
identify disease, particularly in immune progeny derived from 'Gasaway'. An
indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) was developed using...
