Companion plants and straw mulch reduce cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) damage on oilseed rape.

Pest Management Science, 2023
BACKGROUND Plant diversification, especially sowing crops with the addition of companion plants has been demonstrated as a suitable practice to increase insect pest control in multiple cropping systems.

Effects of wheat undersowing and sweet alyssum intercropping on aphid and flea beetle infestation in white cabbage in Germany and Japan

Journal of plant diseases and protection, 2023
An undersowing system with additional intercropping of flowering plants was assessed in field trials in Germany and Japan to estimate regulating effects on pests and possible negative effects on white cabbage ( Brassica oleracea var. capitata ).

How contradictory EU policies led to the development of a pest: The story of oilseed rape and the cabbage stem flea beetle

GCB Bioenergy, 2022
Oilseed rape can be used to produce biodiesel which can substitute non‐renewable fuels for transport. In the early 2000s, the EU introduced a series of policies and market‐based incentives to encourage the production of biofuels to meet their obligations

Sugar transporters enable a leaf beetle to accumulate plant defense compounds

Nature Communications, 2021
The herbivorous horseradish flea beetle sequesters plant toxins to defend against predators. Here the authors identify glucosinolate transporters expressed in the beetle Malpighian tubules and provide evidence that these reabsorb glucosinolates from the ...

Flea Beetle Control, 1993 [PDF]

Arthropod Management Tests, 1994
Abstract Materials were applied on 26 May for early instar BFB larval control to 20- by 20-ft plots in a pruned blueberry field at Otisfield, Maine. There were 3 replications of each treatment in a RCBD with a minimum 5-ft untreated buffer strip around each plot. Insecticides were applied at a rate of 25 gal/acre using a COrpropelled, 30-

Incorporating lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus L.) and marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) as non-host barrier plants to reduce impact of flea beetle (Chaetocnema confinis C.) in cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.)

Acta Entomology and Zoology, 2021
The repelling of insect pests and attracting of beneficial insects using non-host plants is an important component of ‘push-pull’ strategy. Plants with insecticidal properties are locally abundant and can be utilized to management insect pests.
