insects are poikilothermes, hence environmentalfactors, and primarily temperature can affect their biological activities and behavior. in this study thermal range preferred by ooencyrtusfecundusferrier &voegelewas; investigated by a device producing a thermal gradient from 16 to47ºc. temperature of different parts of the arena was precisely recorded by eight thermometers entered the arena from ...

Two experiments were conducted in north-central Florida to examine the effects of various winter cover crops on plant-parasitic nematode populations through time. In the first experiment, six winter cover crops were rotated with summer corn (Zea mays), arranged in a randomized complete block design. The cover crops evaluated were wheat (Triticum aestivum), rye (Secale cereale), oat (Avena sativ...

A pot experiment to determine the effects of summer cover crops and soil amendments on okra yields and population densities of various soil nematode taxa was conducted in two consecutive growing seasons in a subtropical region. Two cover crops, sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea) and sorghum sudangrass (Sorghum bicolorrS. bicolor var. sudanense), were grown and returned to the soil with fallow as a c...

Brassica spp. production can be negatively affected by clubroot, which is caused the protozoan Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin. Most of information on clubroot control derived from studies in temperate regions. Here, management strategies were evaluated to reduce broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Plenck) crop losses owing tropical mountain The first experiment revealed effect green m...

Sunn pests, which can cause significant yield losses on wheat and barley, are one of the pests whose population levels should be followed. Overwintering areas, have an important place in biology insect, provide advantage development biological or integrated control with entomopathogenic fungi. Entomopathogenic fungi most agents reducing overwintering areas. In this study, Lecanicillium psalliot...
