Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A three-step, quasi-double-bind approach was used as a proof-of-concept study to screen twenty compounds for their ability to reduce oviposition of gravid female navel orangeworm (NOW), Ameylois transitella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). First, the panel of compounds, whose identity was unknown to the experimenters, was tested by electroantennogram (EAG) using antennae of two-day old gravid females as the sensing element. Of the twenty compounds tested three showed significant EAG responses. These three EAG-active compounds and a negative control were then analyzed for their ability to reduce oviposition via small-cage, two-choice laboratory assays. Two of the three compounds significantly reduced oviposition under laboratory conditions. Lastly, these two compounds were deployed in a field setting in an organic almond orchard in Arbuckle, CA using black egg traps to monitor NOW oviposition. One of these two compounds significantly reduced oviposition on black egg traps under these field conditions. Compound 9 (later identified as isophorone) showed a significant reduction in oviposition in field assays and thus has a potential as a tool to control the navel orangeworm as a pest of almonds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Central Valley produces the majority of California almonds. Navel Orangeworm, Anyelois Transitella (Walker), is the most critical pest of almonds in California. Management of Navel Orangeworm is primarily accomplished by cultural practices of mummy shaking and early harvest. Research on management practices that control Navel Orangeworm have been limited by the number of studies, replicates within the studies, the scope of the replicates and examined factors of control. This study looked at the effectiveness of multiple farm management practices on Navel Orangeworm, using egg counts as an indicator of pest population pressure. Sixty farms (11 organic, 49 conventional) were monitored from May 1st to October 5th in 2012. Egg counts were then analyzed by farm type, distance from organic farms, direction to organic farms, management practices and multiple environmental factors. This study found that there was no difference in egg counts between farm types, egg count differences were not correlated with the trapping distance, and nine management practices and environmental factors were identified as significant drivers of orchard egg counts. There were significant differences between farms as the number of chemical applications increased, and there was no significant difference in the percent of inedible nuts between organic and conventional farms. This study revealed that farmers who sprayed less for Navel Orangeworm, used less potent pesticides, did not use miticides and fungicides and mowed or disked their mummy nuts tended to have lower egg counts within their orchards.

Download or read book Pheromone Communication in Moths written by Jeremy D. Allison and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Common among moths is a mate-finding system in which females emit a pheromone that induces males to fly upwind along the pheromone plume. Since the chemical pheromone of the domesticated silk moth was identified in 1959, a steady increase in the number of moth species whose pheromone attractants have been identified now results in a rich base for review and synthesis. Pheromone Communication in Moths summarizes moth pheromone biology, covering the chemical structures used by the various lineages, signal production and perception, the genetic control of moth pheromone traits, interactions of pheromones with host-plant volatiles, pheromone dispersal and orientation, male pheromones and courtship, and the evolutionary forces that have likely shaped pheromone signals and their role in sexual selection. Also included are chapters on practical applications in the control and monitoring of pest species as well as case studies that address pheromone systems in a number of species and groups of closely allied species. Pheromone Communication in Moths is an invaluable resource for entomologists, chemical ecologists, pest-management scientists, and professionals who study pheromone communication and pest management.
