The impact of interpolated daily temperature data on landscape-wide predictions of invertebrate pest phenology

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 2003
Insect phenology depends upon temperature, and data from scattered synoptic weather stations are the principle inputs for phenology models used in decision support systems. The paper assesses the spatial dynamics of the penalty, as measured through errors in the timing of predicted insect development stages, that results when entomologists use daily ...

Phenology Modelling and GIS Applications in Pest Management: A Tool for Studying and Understanding Insect-Pest Dynamics in the Context of Global Climate Change

2013
Intensification of agricultural yield losses due to pest aggravation in the context of global climate change has been the key focus of ecological research. In this regard, interest in forecasting models is now days growing radically among entomologists to predict the environmental suitability for new and invading agricultural insect pests. This chapter

Impact of climate change on Ostrinia nubilalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) phenology and its implications on pest management

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, 2019
Climate change can cause negative impacts to the agricultural sector by increasing pest damage to crops. The European corn borer (ECB) is a major insect pest of corn in North America.

Multi-year monitoring of wheat phenology and effect of climate change in the south Asian region using Sentinel-2 NDVI time series analysis

Remote Sensing, 2023
Efficient crop management strategies and optimized agricultural practices are pivotal in maximizing overall yield of crops. An essential aspect of improving crop yield is tracking the phenological development of crops, which plays a crucial role in ...

Predicting the phenology of codling moth, Cydia pomonella, for sustainable pest management in Swiss apple orchards

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2018
The effects of temperature on post‐diapause development, female lifespan, and reproduction of Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) were studied under controlled conditions to determine the respective parameters for a temperature‐driven phenology

A temperature-dependent phenology model for Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae)

Environmental Entomology, 2023
The sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) Middle East-Asia Minor 1 (MEAM1), is widespread across tropical and subtropical regions, affecting hundreds of cultivated and wild plant species. Because the species transmits a variety of viruses, the

Effects of Plant Phenological Factors on Insect Pest Infestation

2019
For understanding the relations between the crop plant and pest population, phenology of crop is basic and important. Crop phenology can be divided into definite pheno-phases, and numbers of pest species against each pheno-phase can be recorded. This will be help in making screening germ plasms against pests precise.

Phenological Correlations Between Flowering Plants and Activity of Urban Landscape Pests in Kentucky

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1997
Seasonal appearance of 33 insect pests of urban landscapes together with flowering phenology of 34 species of common woody ornamental plants were systematically monitored for 3 yr in central Kentucky. Base temperatures and degree-day requirements corresponding to these events also were determined.

Insect Phenology and Integrated Pest Management

Arboriculture & Urban Forestry, 1991
Success of any pest management program requires knowing when to apply a treatment. Due to year to year weather variation, the calendar method is the least precise. Plant phenology is a more precise way to time treatments but it is subject to years when insect and plant development are not well synchronized.

Development and statistical evaluation of models in forecasting moth phenology of major lepidopterous peach pest complex for Integrated Pest Management programs

Crop Protection, 2010
Abstract A 3-parameter Boltzman and a 4-parameter Logistic non-linear regression model were constructed to simulate the emergences and seasonal dynamics of the major moth pest complex of peach including Anarsia lineatella (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), Grapholitha ( Cydia ) molesta (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) and Adoxophyes orana (Lepidoptera ...
