| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses whether or not "the calcium silicate applications to turf plants increase silicon concentration within the plants and affect feeding and development of tropical sod webworms." Explains that "the tropical sod webworm (TSW), Herpetogramma phaeopteralis Guenee, has a wide tropical distribution and is considered to be one of the most destructive turfgrass pests in Florida." States that research was conducted in which "five species of host plants were used with each species receiving two treatments: one with calcium silicate slag (10 MT/ha) and one without." Concludes that "higher concentrations of silicon found in slag treated plants did not affect tropical sod webworm feeding or development." |
