Control of Melon Thrips on Squash, Spring 1996 [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1998 Abstract ‘Dixie’ squash was seeded in Rockdale soil on 25 Feb 1996. A RCB design was employed to provide 4 replicates each for 5 treatments comprising a plot size of 3 rows, 25 feet long. Insecticide applications were initiated after the appearance of melon thrips and continued at approximately 5-7-day intervals beginning 18 Mar.

Melon Thrips Management on Eggplant, 1997
Arthropod Management Tests, 1998 Abstract The study was conducted at the substation of the Kula Research Station, Maui Agricultural Park. The field was set up in a RCB design with seven treatments and four replications (blocks). Each treatment plot consisted of a double row of eggplant planted at 30-inch between-plant spacing. Each row consisted of 14 plants for a total

Control of Melon Thrips in Squash, 1994 [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1995 Abstract Squash (‘Dixie’) was planted in Homestead on 31 Mar 1992. Plant spacing was 0.3 m in the row and 0.9 m between rows. Plants were fertilized with 1890 kg/ha with granular fertilizer (8:16:16) on two dates at planting and 2 wk after planting. Plots were four rows, 12 m long.

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1102-1114, September 2026.ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...
