| Abstract/Contents: | "The feasibility of mating disruption in the oriental beetle, Anomala orientalis, with microencapsulated sprayable formulations of its sex pheromone was evaluated in turfgrass. The effect of the applications was measured by monitoring male oriental beetle captures in pheromone-baited traps throughout the flight period and estimating oriental beetle larval densities in September in soil/sod samples.The results showed: Trap captures were 90 - 100% lower in the treated areas during the first 7 - 10 days after treatment, but started to increase thereafter. Therefore applications were repeated after 14 days in most treatments. The most effective formulation reduced trap captures by 87 - 88% with two applications of each 5 or 20 g pheromone per acre, but only by 74% by a single application of 30 g pheromone per acre. Significant amounts of the pheromone remained on grass foliage after application, but 51 and 73% of this residue was washed off the foliage with 1/8" and 1/4" post-treatment irrigation, respectively. Shoes walked at one day after treatment through pheromone-treated areas were sufficiently contaminated with pheromone to attract high numbers of oriental beetle males in non-treated areas. Mating disruption is a promising strategy for oriental beetle management in turfgrass. However, more persistent formulations need to be developed that have a lower potential to contaminate shoes and other clothing articles with pheromone." |
