Management of Chinese Rose Beetle (Adoretus sinicus) Adults Feeding on Cacao (Theobroma cacao) Using Insecticides
The Chinese rose beetle (Adoretus sinicus Burmeister (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)) is an introduced, widely-established pest in Hawai'i. The adult beetles feed on the leaves of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), which can lead to defoliation and even death of young trees. We evaluated the impact of five commercially available products with different active ingredients (imidacloprid, azadirachtin, Beauve...
متن کاملConfirmation of bean leaf beetle, Cerotoma trifurcata, feeding on cucurbits
The objective of these studies was to assess the degree to which bean leaf beetle, Cerotoma trifurcata (Forster), will feed on cucurbits. In 2003, we documented an infestation of C. trifurcata in a commercial pumpkin field near Rosemount, MN, USA. To evaluate C. trifurcata feeding on cucurbits, we conducted laboratory no-choice and choice test feeding studies. In the laboratory, C. trifurcata f...
متن کاملChlorophyll Content of Persistent - Green and Normal Snap Bean Pods ( Phaseolus vulgaris L
Chlorophyll concns decreased rapidly as pods matured from the 1-day-old fruit stage. Total ' chlorophyll a + b per pod was influenced by pod length as well as pigment concn. Apparent chlorophyll synthesis occurred in field-grown green snap bean fruits up to 11-mm diam pods (sieve size 5 or 6), but a net decrease occurred with further maturation. Dry-mature persistent-green pods contained 300 pp...
متن کاملBenzyladenine-induced increase in DNA content per chloroplast in intact bean leaves.
Benzyladenine (BA) treatment was found to induce chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) synthesis after it had stopped in primary leaves of light-grown intact bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The leaves were treated with BA from 7 days after sowing. Chloroplasts were isolated and the ctDNA content per chloroplast was determined. Chloroplast division occurred until 13 days after sowing in untreated leaves....
متن کاملInfluence of cadmium on water relations, stomatal resistance, and abscisic Acid content in expanding bean leaves.
Ten day old bush bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv Contender) were used to analyze the effects of 3 micromolar Cd on the time courses of expansion growth, dry weight, leaf water relations, stomatal resistance, and abscisic acid (ABA) levels in roots and leaves. Control and Cd-treated plants were grown for 144 hours in nutrient solution. Samples were taken at 24 hour intervals. At the 96 and...
