Efficacy of Topical Application, Leaf Residue or Soil Drench of Blastospores of Isaria fumosorosea for Citrus Root Weevil Management: Laboratory and Greenhouse Investigations [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2016
The efficacy of topical, leaf residue, and soil drench applications with Isaria fumosorosea blastospores (Ifr strain 3581) was assessed for the management of the citrus root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.).

Controlling factors of environmental flooding, soil pH and Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) root weevil feeding in citrus: Larval survival and larval growth

open access: yesApplied Soil Ecology, 2007
Abstract The underlying influences of soil flooding, pH level and soil-inhabiting Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) root weevil larval feeding in citrus were examined in two separate greenhouse studies, rootstock × flooding × Diaprepes-larvae (RFD) and liming × rootstock × flooding × Diaprepes-larvae (LRFD).

Time series forecast and soil characteristics-based simple and multivariate linear models for management of Diaprepes abbreviatus root weevil in citrus

open access: yesSoil Biology and Biochemistry, 2007
Synthesis of insect and soil variable patterns in space and time via process models would be useful for reducing the cost of field monitoring and for achieving improved integrated pest management. During 2001–2003, we monitored the Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) root weevil population in a flatwoods citrus grove containing a sandy Alfisol and a loamy ...

Virulence of new and mixed strains of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema riobrave to larvae of the citrus root weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus

open access: yesBiological Control, 2004
Steinernema riobrave ranks as the most efficacious entomopathogenic nematode for inundative biological control (biopesticide) applications against larvae of the root weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus in Florida citrus groves and has been commercially available for several years.

Field Diagnosis of Citrus Root Weevil Damage

open access: yesEDIS, 2005
Root weevils infest citrus groves throughout the citrus growing regions of Florida. Among the eight weevil species that have been identified in Florida citrus groves, five have some potential to cause economic problems for nurserymen and commercial ...

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in Agriculture and Its Role in Maintaining Ecological Balance and Biodiversity

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The production of sustainable crops and environmental management in farming face several significant potential obstacles, including climate change, resource depletion and environmental degradation. Weeds and insect pests that considerably reduce yields have put crop production systems in danger.

Frontiers in quantifying wildlife behavioural responses to chemical pollution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 4, Page 1346-1364, August 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Animal behaviour is remarkably sensitive to disruption by chemical pollution, with widespread implications for ecological and evolutionary processes in contaminated wildlife populations. However, conventional approaches applied to study the impacts of chemical pollutants on wildlife behaviour seldom address the complexity of natural ...

Metagenomic clustering reveals microbial contamination as an essential consideration in ultraconserved element design for phylogenomics with insect museum specimens

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
We investigate if genomic bacterial and laboratory contamination is introduced into ultraconserved element (UCE) probe design from five novel Coleoptera museum specimens. Our findings indicate that even very clean samples have contamination that is carried into the UCE probe design.
