Abstract/Contents:Bacillus thuringiensis serovar japonensis strain Buibui experimental formulations containing Cry8cal δ-endotoxin were evaluated in the field for the control of oriental beetle, Anomala orientalis Waterhouse; Japanese bettle, Popillia japonica Newman; Asiatic garden beetle, Maladera castanea (Arrow); and European chafer, Rhizotrogus majalis (Razoumowsky) larvae infesting turfgrasses. In 17 fall applications, Control of A. orientalis and P. japonica was achieved at rates as low as 100g of toxin per ha; however, rates of 301 or 593g/ha were consistently more effective. A. orientallis larvae were the most susceptible followed by P. japonica, R. majalis, and M. castanea. Two spring applications of 120 g of toxins per ha were not effective against oriental or Japanese beetles.
