Theory predicts that speciation-with-gene-flow is more likely when the consequences of selection for population divergence transitions from mainly direct effects of selection acting on individual genes to a collective property of all selected genes in the genome. Thus, understanding the direct impacts of ecologically based selection, as well as the indirect effects due to correlations among loc...

Codling moth (Cydia pomonella (L.)) is targeted for postharvest control by quarantine regulations in Japan and South Korea and by phytosanitation concerns in Europe. Heat treatments may be used to control C. pomonella. But possible increase of heat resistance in insect pests, caused by pretreatment thermal conditions during harvest and storage periods, may compromise the efficacy of subsequent ...

Abstract Background and Aims: The Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) is a baculovirus and very effective biological control agent against apple pest, codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. especially for healthy organic apple production and protection.  Not only, screening of CpGV isolates via biochemical variation, but also their biological variation is practically necessary.  Howeve...

Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) based biocontrol agents are highly effective and environmentally benign control measures for codling moth (CM). In recent years, CpGV has become a corner stone for CM control both in the organic and integrated production of apple and pears. In 2005, first reports on CM populations with a dramatically decreased susceptibility to CpGV products were published. S...

Recapture of marked male codling moths, Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), released four distances from traps was measured in experiments comparing either lure type or mating disruption. Experiment 1 assessed recapture by 0.1, 1, and 10 mg of codlemone lures. Experiments 2 and 3 assessed moth recapture in orchard plots with 0, 500, or 1,000 Isomate C Plus dispensers per ha. Moths ...

Studies were conducted in commercial apple orchards in British Columbia, Canada, to determine whether lures combining ethyl-(E,Z)-2,4-decadienoate, pear ester (PE), with either acetic acid (AA) or sex pheromone, (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol (codlemone), might improve monitoring of codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), in an area-wide programme integrating sterile insect technology (SIT) and mating ...
