Book System Wide Study of Woolly Apple Aphid

Download or read book System Wide Study of Woolly Apple Aphid written by Robert John Orpet and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woolly apple aphid, Eriosoma lanigerum (Hausmann), is an increasingly important pest in apple orchards worldwide and is difficult to manage with currently available tactics. To address the need for new knowledge and tactics to manage this pest, I conducted studies on the potential effects of physical control tactics, biological control, and factors related to differences in organic versus conventional management. I found that preventing woolly apple aphid movement from tree roots to canopies did not influence their aboveground population dynamics, suggesting limited utility of using physical barriers to block this movement. In a video-recording experiment I collected evidence that predation by coccinellid larvae could decrease woolly apple aphids populations, but coccinellids had a relatively narrow window of seasonal activity. Earwigs (Forficula auricularia L.) in the same study appeared to be effective generalist predators which could prevent low-density woolly apple aphid populations from increasing. I conducted an earwig augmentation experiment at four different orchards and confirmed that greater earwig abundance results in lower and more stable woolly apple aphid populations and I found no evidence that earwigs damaged apples. Molecular gut content analysis of earwigs further demonstrated that they are effective predators of low-density aphid populations, as woolly apple aphid DNA was detected in their guts even during periods when woolly apple aphids were rare. In a two-year observational study of 20 organically or conventionally managed orchards I found no correlation between woolly apple aphids with spray programs, soil quality, tree nitrogen, or natural enemy communities. Moreover, conventional and organic orchards were generally similar in these factors. Interviews I conducted with pest management decision-makers highlighted that a range of practices are used in conventional and organic orchards and these management styles may not represent a distinct dichotomy. I suggest greater attention to earwigs in integrated pest management programs could reduce incidence of woolly apple aphid outbreaks, and that conventional and organic apple orchards in central Washington are often managed similarly.

Book Integrated Biological Control of Woolly Apple Aphid in Washington State

This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woolly apple aphid Eriosoma lanigerum Hausmann is a secondary pest of apples whose outbreaks have occurred more often since about 2000. The increase in outbreaks appears to be associated with changes in pesticide programs and disruption of biological control. Because of the banning of azinphos-methyl and restriction posed on other organophosphates, growers are turning more to biological control as an alternative tactic to control woolly apple aphid. This aphid has been documented to have a wide host of natural enemies around the world including syrphids, coccinellids, chrysopids, predatory hemipterans, earwigs and the endoparasitoid Aphelinus mali (Haudeman). A survey I conducted in 2008 in central Washington confirmed that syrphids, chrysopids, coccinellids and A. mali are the most common natural enemies of woolly apple aphid occurring in Washington. Conservation of woolly apple aphid natural enemies in the orchard was also studied in 2008, 2010 and 2011. Sweet alyssum Lobularia maritima (L.) Desvaux was the flowering plant that attracted significantly more predatory syrphids into the orchards. A faster response by natural enemies to woolly apple infestation was observed on plots planted with sweet alyssum. In addition, a movement of natural enemies between sweet alyssum and tree canopy was confirmed by an imunomarking technique. Exclusion cage studies conducted in 2010 and 2011 showed that predators together with A. mali can efficiently control woolly apple aphid in orchards under a soft pesticide program. In addition, syrphids did not seem to disrupt parasitism of A. mali, but instead showed an additive effect when combined. The lethal and sublethal effect of orchard pesticides on A. mali were also examined in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Spinetoram, spinosad, carbaryl, organophosphates and neonicotinoids showed a high acute toxicity to A. mali killing more than 90% at full rate. Chlorantraniliprole, lambda-cyhalothrin, novaluron, cyantraniliprole, spirotetramat, sulfur and the mixture of Zinc/Manganese + copper hydroxide killed less than 60% of the parasitoids in the acute bioassays at both rates. Only cyantraniliprole, spinetoram and lambda-cyhalothrin showed significant sublethal effects on A. mali. The sublethal effect of cyantraniliprole was due to induction of low fecundity in A. mali, whereas for spinetoram and lambda-cyhalothrin the effect was due to adult A. mali and host mortality. All the studies suggest that biological control of woolly apple aphid has the potential to work in the field. Nevertheless, conservation measures like augmenting alternative food sources for natural enemies and spraying selective pesticides should be adopted.
