In 1991, Isomate C (Pacific Biocontrol Corp., Ridgefield, WA.) became the first commercial product registered by the United States EPA for control of codling moth. Currently, there are 5 products available including Isomate C+, CheckMate CM (Consep, Inc., Bend, OR), NoMate CM (Scentry, Inc., Billings, MT) and Disrupt CM (Hercon, Inc., Emigsville, PA). In Washington State in 1991, codling moth m...

The heat-driven phenology model used for initiating codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), management in Washington state was examined to determine the need for using the capture of the first moth as a method of synchronizing the model and phenology of field populations (= biofix). We examined trap catch data taken at 1-2-d intervals from two research orchards; one data ...

The codling moth is a key and most widely distributed pest of apple orchards worldwide. population development C. pomonella was investigated using sex pheromone traps in different between years 2019 2020 northern Kyrgyzstan. Flight the males characterized by instability, which associated with temperature other climatic factors. Trap captures were positively correlated temperature, but negativel...

Infection of cocooned codling moth (cydia pomonella) larvae by the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae was studied in three field experiments. Factors that varied within or between experiments included method of application, type of substrate containing cocooned larvae, time when nematodes were applied, seasonal effects, and supplemental wetting before or after nematode applicatio...

BACKGROUND The codling moth (Cydia pomonella) is a major insect pest of apples worldwide. Fully grown last instar larvae overwinter in diapause state. Their overwintering strategies and physiological principles of cold tolerance have been insufficiently studied. No elaborate analysis of overwintering physiology is available for European populations. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We observed that codling...
