The susceptibility of adult sunn pest, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae), to five local Syrian isolates of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Steinernema riobravae Texas, S. carpocapsae C3B, and H. bacteriophora 8-14 strains was evaluated under laboratory conditions. Concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 400 nematodes per adult were bioassayed; for each nematode concentration, f...

sunn pest is considered as the most important insect pest of wheat and barley in iran. different studies have shown that various biotic and abiotic factors affect sunn pest populations. these factors can influence the population density of the pest which in turn can play a role in the control of the pest. in this study the relationship between sunn pest population fluctuations and climatic cond...

The crops are attacked by several species of bugs. Sunn pest, is the most important pest constitutes a major threat to wheat production and, to a lesser extent, barley production. Sunn pests are a complex of true bugs which belong to the genera Eurygaster (Scutelleridae), Aelia, Carpocoris and Dolycoris (Pentatomidae). Eurygaster integriceps is probably the most important species in Afghanistan...

sunn pest (eurygaster integriceps put.) is one of the major pests of wheat in iran. identification of resistantcultivars is an effective integrated pest management (ipm) strategy. to identify the genetic response of wheat and triticale to sunn pest, and determine the relationship between resistance and morpho physiological traits, eight bread wheat breeding lines/cultivars, four durum wheat lin...

Sunn pest is one of the most important cereal pests that affect both grain yield and quality of cereal in Iran. One potential control strategy is to use entomopathogenic fungi such as Beauveria bassiana Vuillemin as mycoinsecticide to control this pest. Naturally infested Sunn pests in Kermanshah province were collected and brought to laboratory. 10 isolates were selected for further analysis i...
