Flea Beetle Control in Canola, 1994B [PDF]
Abstract Plots were planted 6 May near Pomeroy, WA, at a rate of 6 lb/acre in rows 7 inches apart. Plots were 20 × 2 ft, replicated 4 times with a RCBD, and were situated with replicates perpendicular to a grass field. Precounts (PrCt) of plant stand per 6.6 ft row, and damage on 20 randomly selected plants on a scale of 0 to 6, with 0 =

Up and down from North to South: Latitudinal Distribution of Flea Beetle Genera in Continental Africa (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Alticini) [PDF]
The distribution of global biodiversity can be investigated based on comprehensive datasets and many methods to process them. The taxonomic diversity of phytophagous insects is typically linked to plant diversity, which increases from temperate to ...

Taxonomy, Habitat Preference, and Niche Overlap of Two Arrow-Poison Flea Beetle Species of the Genus Polyclada in Sub-Saharan Africa (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) [PDF]
Coupling the geographic distribution and the ecological requirements of species often supports taxonomy and biogeography. In this contribution, we update the distribution of two flea beetle species of ethno-entomological interest, Polyclada bohemani and ...

Effective target genes for RNA interference‐based management of the cabbage stem flea beetle [PDF]
An oral RNAi screen consisting of 27 dsRNAs identified effective target genes for RNAi‐based pest control in the cabbage stem flea beetle The most effective target genes were involved in proteasomal pathways or gene expression, and their sequences were subjected to in silico off‐target analysis Knock‐down of some effective target genes also inhibited ...

The Impact of Plant Essential Oils and Fine Mesh Row Covers on Flea Beetle (Chrysomelidae) Management in Brassicaceous Greens Production [PDF]
Brassicaceous leafy greens are an important crop for small growers but are difficult to produce due to damage by flea beetles. Flea beetles are problematic for growers as they chew many small holes through leaves rendering produce unmarketable. We tested

Generic placement of the African flea beetle Polyclada maculipennis Bryant and the possible occurrence of the genus Procalus Clark in sub-Saharan Africa (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Alticini) [PDF]
Polyclada Chevrolat and Procalus Clark are flea beetle genera (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Alticini). Polyclada is endemic to the Afrotropical region, while Procalus has never been described outside of the Neotropical region.

Flea Beetle Control in Canola, 1988 [PDF]
Abstract A cooperative study was arranged with Sigco Research, Inc. of Breckenridge, MN. The trial was planted at Cando, ND, on 10 May using a cone type 6 row planter. Plots were 6-15 inch rows 20 ft in length arranged in a randomized complete block design replicated 4 times.

Flea Beetle Control in Canola, 1987 [PDF]
Abstract Plots were established in the untreated corner of an 80-acre commercial field 5 mi west of Hallo.-k Minn. The plot area did not include the headland and was located about 100 ft from the field edge. The soil was a clay type, quite short of moisture a planting (1 May) but very uniform for such a large trial. Individual plots were
