Control of the Codling Moth with Guthion and CM Granulosis Virus, 1994
Authors: Brunner J. F. , Gut L. J. , Doerr M. D. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Guthion and two formulations of CM granulosis virus, a powder (CGI-9401) and liquid (CGI-9405), were evaluated for their ability to control CM over the entire season. Milk and 45 ml of NU-FILM-P were added to the 25-gal mixture of both virus formulations before application. Powdered milk was used first generation at 1 lb/25 gal, and liquid milk was used second generation at 1 gal/25 gal. The test was conducted in an apple orchard at the Tree Fruit Research and Extension Center. The trees were 15-yr-old spur type ‘Delicious’ on dwarfing roots. Treatments were applied to two-tree plots replicated five times using a RCB design. All treatments were applied with a handgun sprayer at 300 psi to the point of drip, simulating a dilute spray of approximately 400 gpa. The CM granulosis virus was applied at intervals of 100 degree days following the first application against each CM generation. The first application of all treatments against the first and second CM generation was based on an accumulation of 250 (11 May) and 1200 (15 Jul) degree days, respectively, after first moth capture in pheromone traps. The posttreatment evaluation was made on 30 Aug. One hundred apples from one tree per plot were examined, and the number of CM injured fruit was recorded.

Authors: Hoy Casey W. , Dunlap Michael J. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
‘Bravo’ cabbage was transplanted at Fry Farm, OARDC, Wooster, OH, on 1 Jul. Plots were 2 rows wide on 36 inch centers, 40 ft long, and separated by 9 ft alleys. Plants were on 1 ft spacing within the rows. Each treatment was replicated four times in a randomized complete block design. The field was sprayed with Sevin XLR (4EC) at 1 qt form/acre on 26 Jul to reduce flea beetle damage. Treatments were applied 18 Aug, 9 and 21 Sep using a tractor mounted drop nozzle boom sprayer delivering 50 gpa at 50 psi with three D-4 hollow cone nozzles/row. Five plants per plot were randomly selected and inspected for DBM, ICW, and CL small (1st—2nd instars) and large (&gt;3rd instars) larvae, and ICW and CL eggs, on 17, 24 Aug, 1, 7, 14, and 26 Sep. On 30 Sep, three plants per plot were randomly selected from each plot and destructively sampled for the above as well as pupae of each species; the heads of these three plants were weighed. To rate marketability, 15 cabbage heads per plot were inspected on 30 Sep, and rated according to Greene et al. (J. Econ. Entomol. 62(4): 798-800).

Authors: Mau R. F. L. , Gusukuma-Minuto L. R. , Shimabuku R. S. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Fumigants were tested to control a new root aphid found in the farming area of Kula located on the Hawaiian Island of Maui. The field trial was installed on a cooperating grower’s farm at Kula, Maui in a field that contained broccoli heavily infested by the pest. The experimental plots were adjacent to a broccoli planting that was also heavily infested by the root aphid. The adjacent broccoli crop was removed by the grower 5 weeks after the field trial began. The four treatments tested were Telone II (30 gal/A), Vapam (60 gal/A), Di-Syston 15G (13.4 lbs/A) as a treated check, and an untreated check. The field site was plowed on 24 Nov 1994 and fumigants were applied 2 weeks later using a tractor mounted injector. Head cabbage seedlings in the 6-8 true leaf stage were planted 2 weeks after fumigants were applied. The Di-Syston treatment was applied in-furrow immediately prior to transplanting. A randomized block plot design with three replications was used. Each treatment replication consisted of four rows of cabbage with 25 plants per row at 18 inches inter plant spacing. Treatment plots were separated by a 3 feet buffer. The treatments were evaluated at 3, 7, and 12 weeks after planting to assess aphid populations on the roots. During each evaluation, the roots of 15 plants were taken from each treatment plot and individually bagged. Each root sample was washed in a calcium chloride solution (1 tablespoon/gallon water). The aphids floated to the surface and were counted.
Biological Control of Cabbage Maggot on Cruciferous Crops with Parasitic Nematodes, 1994
Authors: Prostak Donald J. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Cabbage was transplanted on 10 May with radish and turnip seeded on 11 May into three separate adjacent plots at the Snyder Research and Extension Farm, Pittstown, NJ. Treatment plots were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design and consisted of single rows, 20 ft long on 3 ft centers with 2 ft between cabbage plants and approximately 2 inches between radish and turnip plants. Buffers were 3 ft between rows and 1 ft between plots within rows. Standard cultural practices were used throughout the trial. Treatments were applied on 25 May and 9 Jun by digging a shallow, circular trench 3 inches deep and 3 to 5 inches from the base of each cabbage plant. Around each plant, 500 ml of water containing two rates of entomophagus nematodes were deposited. After the application, the trench was filled with loose soil. Nematodes were applied to radish and turnip rows by a watering bucket centered over the row and delivering two rates of nematodes as a dilute drench at the rate of 500 ml per 2 ft of row, 5 inches wide. Crops were irrigated with 1/2 inches of water immediately after application. Cabbage plots were evaluated on 14 Jul by examining 5 plants from the middle of each replicate. Three ft of each radish and 4.5 ft of each turnip row were evaluated on 13 Jun and 7 Jul, respectively. All maggot damage was identified and counted.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
‘Rio Verdo’ cabbage seeds were planted onto raised beds of rockdale soil on 10 Apr 1994. The beds were covered with black polyethylene mulch. The soil was fumigated with 75% methyl bromide and 25% chloropicrin (Terr-O-Gas) at 242 kg/ha 7 days before planting. Fertilizer (N:P205:K20) was incorporated into the soil on 1 Apr 1994. Plants were drip irrigated, 4 h/d. The seeds were spaced 0.3 m apart within each of two rows per bed that were 0.76 m apart on 1.83-center beds. Treatment plots were 4 rows (2 beds) wide by 7.6 m long. Five treatments were arranged in randomized complete blocks with 4 replications. Treatments evaluated were: 1) Dipel (1 lb/A); 2) Agree (1.0 lb/A); 3) Xentari (0.5 lb/A); 4) Treatment 2 was rotated with Treatment 1 at weekly intervals; and 5) a nontreated check. Insecticides were applied weekly on seven dates between 6 May and 20 Jun 1994 with a CO2 backpack sprayer using 2 nozzles/row delivering 124 gal/ha at 40 psi. Treatments were evaluated by recording DBM larvae and pupae/plant of randomly selected 10 plants per treatment plot 24 h after insecticide application.

Authors: Walgenbach J. F. , Palmer C. R. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
Transplants were set on 31 May at the Mountain Horticultural Crops Research Station, Fletcher, NC. Plants were set 12 inches apart in 20 ft rows on 3.5 ft centers. Double-row plots were separated by cultivated soil and arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. All materials were applied on 24 Jun, 1, 11, 22, 25 Jul, and 1 Aug except for PCC 336 which was not applied on the last three dates. Applications were made with a tractor-mounted boom sprayer delivering 50 gpa through 3 hollow cone nozzles per row (1 overhead and 2 drop nozzles) except for PCC 336 which was applied using a hand-pumped backpack sprayer delivering 79 gpa. CL, DBM, ICW and CSCW populations were counted on 10 heads/treatment approximately 6 days after all applications. Crop quality was assessed on 8 Aug, when 10 heads/treatment were rated on a scale of 0-5 (0 = no damage, 1 = frame leaf damage, 2 = minimal wrapper leaf damage, 3 = significant wrapper leaf damage, 4 = head damage and 5 = severe head damage). All heads receiving a rating of ≤2 were considered marketable. All data were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA, and means were separated using LSD (P - 0.05).

Published: December 2017

Abstract
‘NK-199’ sweet corn was planted in 4-row plots 100 ft in length on 1 Jun ‘94. Distance between rows was 3 ft. Distance between plants within the row was 8 inches with the center 2 rows serving as record rows. Plots were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design. Sprays were applied with an International Harvester 770 Hi-Clear sprayer. The spray boom was adjusted to spray the silk area with each row being covered by 4 nozzles. The sprayer was equipped to treat 4 rows. All treatments were mixed in 10 gallons of water and applied at the rate of 25 gal/acre with 50 psi. Spray treatments were applied at 30% silk on 20 Jul, 24 Jul and 1 Aug. At harvest (4 Aug), 30 ears from the center 2 rows of each plot were husked and evaluated for worm damage as fresh-market (clean ears, no damage evident), processing (evidence of tip feeding but less than 3.6 cm tip damage), and culls (tip damage beyond 3.6 cm to the side and/or bottom). All worms found within the husk or ear were identified. The soil type was Norfolk “A” loamy sand.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
Sweet corn was planted on 5 Jul at the Snyder Research and Extension Farm, Pittstown, NJ. Treatment plots were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design and consisted of 4 rows, 50 ft long on 3 ft centers with 9 inches between plants. Buffers were 12 ft driveways, two additional rows between adjacent plots, and 5 ft between plots within rows. Standard cultural practices were used throughout the trial. Treatments were applied on 31 Jul, 4, 11, and 16 Aug with a CO2-pressurized single hollow-cone nozzle, hand-held sprayer that delivered 78.7 gal/acre at 60 psi in a band over the row. Nozzle was held approximately ten inches from the top of the plants so that the spray was directed to the upper surfaces of the leaves and the interior area of the whorl. At the time of the first application, plants were approximately 10 inches high in the early whorl stage. During the test period ECB and FAW populations were moderate and low, respectively. A preapplication evaluation showed that 6% of the plants were infested with either larvae. Plots were evaluated on 23 Aug by examining 25 plants randomly harvested from the middle 35 ft of the middle 2 rows of each replicate. All ECB and FAW larvae in the whorl were identified and counted.

Insecticidal Control of European Corn Borer and Corn Earworm in Minnesota Sweet Corn, 1995
Authors: Battels D. W. , Hutchison W. D. 
Published: December 2017

Abstract
This test was conducted on the University of Minnesota Southern Experiment Station at Waseca, MN. Sweet corn was planted 14 Jun. Plots consisted of four rows, 25 ft (7.6 m) long on 30 inch (0.8 m) centers with two untreated border rows and 6 ft (1.83 m) alleys separating the plots. Treatments were arranged in a RCB design with four replications. A Hagie highboy sprayer, with two flat fan (8002VS) drop nozzles per row, was used to treat each plot. The sprayer was calibrated to deliver 35 gpa (327.4 liters/ha) at 36 psi (2.8 kg/cm2) and 2 mph (1.2 km/hr). Treatment applications were scheduled \ to start at first silk. However, because of unusually rapid development of the sweet corn, the corn was at 100% silk at the time of the first application. Treatments were applied 15 and 24 Aug. The final scheduled application was omitted because of rapid maturity of the corn. Plots were manually infested with about 25 neonate ECB larvae per primary earleaf 17 Aug, two days after the first treatments were applied. Treatments were evaluated 30 Aug by randomly selecting 25 ears per plot (100 per treatment) and recording total larvae, larval size, location and feeding damage.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
Transplants were set 14 Mar, 12 inches apart on 8-inch-high and 32-inch-wide beds of EauGallie fine sand covered with white polyethylene mulch. Each plot consisted of a single row of 10 plants with rows on 5 ft centers. Treatments were replicated 4 times in a RCB design and were applied with a 2.5 gal, hand-held CO2-powered sprayer on 7, 13, 20 Apr, 4, 11, 18, 25 May, 1, 9, 14, 21, 29 Jun and 6 July. The sprayer was outfitted with a single nozzle with a D-5 disk and #45 core and delivered 100 gpa at 60 psi. The Neemix 4.5% formulation was inadvertently substituted for the 0.25% formulation for the first three applications. On 16 May, each plot was rated 1 to 12 for increasing defoliation due to armyworm feeding using the Horsfall-Barratt scale. Fruit were harvested on 24 May, 12, 26 Jun and 10 July and the number and weight of undamaged fruit and the number of fruit damaged by beet armyworm larvae were determined. Fruit with slight feeding damage only on the stem or calyx were considered marketable. Fruit with either slight or severe damage on the fruit wall were considered unmarketable. Fruit also were examined for the presence of oviposition scars on the outsides of the fruit and for the presence of larval feeding damage on the insides of the fruit caused by the pepper weevil.

Published: December 2017

Abstract
‘Snowden’ potatoes were planted in 100 foot rows on 28 Mar,’95. Replicated plots consisted of three treatment rows. The distance between rows was 32 inches and the distance between plants within the row was 12 inches. Plots were arranged in a RCB design with 4 replications. The soil was a Norfolk “A” loamy sand. All spray treatments were mixed in 10 gallons of water and applied with an Ag Tech airblast sprayer. Twelve row blocks were sprayed at the rate of 10 gal/acre. A 50 foot unplanted buffer area was created between treatments to prevent contamination by drift. In-furrow soil treatments of Admire were applied on 28 Mar using a hand held single nozzle boom connected to a truck mounted sprayer by way of a 100 foot hose. Treatments were mixed in 15 gallons of water and applied at the rate of 55.25 gal/acre at 32 psi. All Admire treatments were applied to the seed pieces. Treatment number three consisting of Agri-Mek was treated on 23 May. In evaluating the treatments, direct counts of the number of Colorado potato beetle adults, larvae, egg masses/10 plants and % defoliation were recorded. Defoliation categories were assigned using a pretransformed defoliation rating scale, based on dividing 90° into 13 steps corresponding to arcsin transformation values (Little & Hills 1978). Yields were taken on 15 Aug from three 100-ft rows.

Abstract
“Kanona” potatoes were planted 12 May, on 0.9 m row spacing. Each plot consisted of 4 rows of potatoes 9.1 m long surrounded by a 3.7 m wide fallow buffer area. The treatments were replicated 4 times and the plots were arranged in a RCBD. Treatments were applied with a bicycle CO2 sprayer operated at 275 kpa with spray nozzles spaced 50.8 cm apart. The treatments were applied on 23 Jun (45% egg hatch) and the plants were 45 cm high and 45 cm wide. The trial was designed as a 4 by 3 factorial experiment where spinosad, the first product in the naturalyte class, was applied at 5, 20, 40 and 80 g (AI)/ha in spray volumes of 56, 187 and 748 liters/ha and compared to the untreated. The 56 liters/ha spray was applied using a 800067 flat fan nozzle at 4.8 km/h. The 187 and 748 liters/ ha sprays were applied using a 8002 flat fan nozzle at 4.8 and 1.2 km/h, respectively. On 30 Jun, 7 days after application the total number of CPB larvae was counted on five plants per plot. On 6 Jul, the percent visual defoliation of each plot was rated.

Abstract
The trial was conducted at Madrid, NE, on a well drained loamy soil with a pH of 6.8 and 2% organic matter. Fertilization was 130 lb N/acre, 100 lb P/acre, 40 lb K/acre, and 90 lb S/acre. Precut, TOPS 2.5D-treated potatoes variety ‘Krantz’ were planted on 21 April. Soil temperature at planting was about 50 deg F. Ridomil/ Bravo for blight control and Champ were applied. Asana was applied to foliage for Colorado potato beetle control. Turbo was applied at emergence and Eptam post emergence for weed suppression. Temperature and rainfall were normal or slightly above. Irrigation was about ½ inch per week during tuber bulking using a center pivot. Mocap 10G at 2.1 lb, Aztec 2.1%G at 0.48 lb, at 0.64 lb and 0.96 lb/1000 linear feet were applied into the furrow in a 5-7 inch band prior to seedpiece drop. Aztec at 0.64 lb/1000 lin feet was also tested with an application after seedpiece drop. Treatments were replicated three times in a completely randomized design. Plots were two rows spaced 36 inches apart and 40 feet long. They were harvested on 17 Aug. Wireworm holes were counted in 100-tuber subsamples (50 per row)/plot. Ten bait stations, each consisting of one packet of wet corn, one of wheat and one of millet, placed into soil in the trial field. They were collected several weeks later (Jun). Six wireworms were H. memnonius and four were in the genus Melanotus (species unidentified). Four of the wireworms were in the wheat packet and three in the soil around the station. One H. memnonius was in the corn and two Melanotus spp. were in the millet.

Abstract
Seedlings were transplanted in a sandy loam type soil on 16 June at the University of California‘s South Coast Field Station in Santa Ana, California. Experimental plots were 4 rows wide (5-ft centers) by 40 ft long and separated by a 5-ft buffer. The tomato transplants were sprinkle irrigated for 1 week, and drip irrigated thereafter (water pH 7.2-7.5). Treatments were replicated 4 times in a RCB design. Weekly applications were initiated at first fruiting. Application dates were 21, 28 Jul, 4, 10, 17, 25 Aug, 1 and 8 Sep. (except Avid which was applied on 21, 28 Jul and 17 and 25 Aug.) A tractor-mounted boom sprayer with 6 nozzles per row incorporated D-3 orifice disks, #25 cores, and 50 mesh screens. Operating pressure was 100 psi delivering 100 gal/acre. Spreader sticker (Leaf Act 80) at 0.04% was included for all treatments. Leafminer populations were evaluated by weekly counts of leafminer prepupae and pupae in four 9 by 11 inch trays/replicate from 26 Jul through 6 Sep., inclusive. On 12-13 Sep., 200 mature-green to ripe fruit were harvested from the center 2 rows of each replicate (800 per treatment) and examined for internal damage (primarily H. zea) and external damage (primarily S. exigua and K. lycopersicella). Leafminer populations were moderate early, then high late in this test. Some treatments increased leafminer density as compared to the control. Beet armyworm and tomato pinworm populations were moderate and tomato fruitworm populations were high. No phytotoxicity was observed in any treatment.
