Model of Slowing the Spread of Gypsy Moth (lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) with a Barrier Zone
When attempts to eradicate an introduced pest species fail and it becomes established, barrier zones are often used to stop or to slow the spread of the population into uninfested areas. The U.S. Forest Service is currently conducting a Slow-the-Spread (STS) pilot project to evaluate the feasibility of slowing the spread of the gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) in several areas along the populat...
متن کاملAminopeptidase-Like Activity in Hemolymph Plasma from Larvae of the Gypsy Moth, Lymantria dispar (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)
Aminopeptidase was isolated from the plasma fraction of hemolymph from last instar larvae of the gypsy moth Lymantria dispar. Activity was detected using the synthetic substrate L-alanine-4-nitroanilide. Total aminopeptidase activity per microliter of plasma varied with developmental stage. Activity was detected throughout the last (fifth) larval instar and increased throughout the pupal stage....
متن کاملThe cost of slowing the spread of the gypsy moth (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae).
Beginning in 1992, the Slow The Spread (STS) pilot project was initiated to target gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) spread rate reduction by controlling populations in the transition zone. The project uses intensive monitoring techniques, with pheromone-baited sticky moth traps, to detect low-level populations and target them for eradication. The primary objective of the pilot project was to ev...
متن کاملThe effects of cations on the activity of the gypsy moth (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) nuclear polyhedrosis virus.
Fourteen cations were tested at a 1% concentration (wt:wt), as chlorides, for their effects on the biological activity of the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (L.), nuclear polyhedrosis virus (LdMNPV). Cupric chloride was toxic to gypsy moth larvae. Ferrous and ferric chloride were inhibitory to larval growth and development as well as to virus activity. Strontium chloride was inhibitory to virus a...
متن کاملGenetic Characterization of the Gypsy Moth from China (Lepidoptera, Lymantriidae) Using Inter Simple Sequence Repeats Markers
This study provides the first genetic characterization of the gypsy moth from China (Lymantriadispar), one of the most recognized pests of forests and ornamental trees in the world. We assessed genetic diversity and structure in eight geographic populations of gypsy moths from China using five polymorphic Inter simple sequence repeat markers, which produced reproducible banding patterns. We obs...
