Evaluation of potato tuber moth mortality following postharvest cold storage of potatoes

Crop Protection, 2012
Abstract Developmental stages of the potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller), were subjected to low temperatures to determine the effect of short- and long-term exposure on egg hatch, larval mortality, and adult longevity. The hatching of eggs, for all ages, did not exceed 12 and 38% after 35 d of exposure to 3 and 7 °C, respectively ...

A Note on the Incidence of Potato Tuber Moth,

University of Khartoum Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
An outbreak of larvae of a devastating moth was observed in an eggplant(Solanum melongena L.) field at Elselate Scheme, Khartoum State, Sudan, during April2007, with symptoms such as foliage-mining, leaf defoliation and fruit burrowing underthe calyx and through the fruit skin.

Observations on the Potato Tuber Moth

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1932
On three occasions during the past nine years the potato tuber moth (Phthorimaea Operculella) has caused economic losses to potato growers in Worcester and Somerset Counties. During two years, 1925 and 1930, the damage was serious. In 1929 it was slight.

Pyramiding transgenes for potato tuber moth resistance in potato

Plant Biotechnology Reports, 2010
The feasibility of two strategies for transgene pyramiding using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was investigated to develop a transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Iwa) with resistance to potato tuber moth (PTM) (Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller)).

Evaluation of Potato Tuber Moth (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) Resistance in Tubers ofBt-cry5Transgenic Potato Lines

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2000
The potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller), in tropical and subtropical countries, is the most destructive pest of potato, Solanum tuberosum L. The larvae attack foliage and tubers in the field and in storage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a Bt-cry5 transgene to control the potato tuber moth in tuber tissues ...

Evaluation of transgenic approaches for controlling tuber moth in potatoes.

Communications in agricultural and applied biological sciences, 2006
A wide spectrum of strategies to genetically engineer potato plants resistant to potato tuber moth, Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller), have been investigated. The potato cv Iwa was transformed with a range of genes under the transcriptional control of the CaMV 35S promoter using Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. The transferred genes encode protease

Cultural practices in relation to infestation of potato crops by the potato tuber moth

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1974
Abstract In a field trial at Pukekohe the effect of sprinkler irrigation and wide ridging (91 cm) on potato infestation by the potato tuber moth Phthorimaea operculella Zell., Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae was assessed in a season of unusually low rainfall.

Susceptibility of Potato Tuber Moth (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) to Postharvest Gamma Irradiation

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2004
Gamma irradiation doses applied to inhibit potato sprouting were tested against potato tuber moth larval and pupal stages. Young larvae and pupae were more susceptible to irradiation injuries than older ones. When larvae of different ages were exposed to doses > or = 100 Gy, only 13-35% pupated, but no adult emergence was obtained.
