Abstract/Contents: | Presents research conducted to develop mating disruption technology as a potential method of controlilng the oriental beetle. Explains that "the oriental beetle (OB), Anomala orientalis, has become the most important turfgrass insect pest in NJ [New Jersey], CT [Connecticut], RI [Rhode Island], and southeastern NY [New York]." States that "mating disruption with sex pheromones is widely used as an environmentally safe, non-toxic alternative to broad-spectrum insecticides for several moth species." Reports that "mating disruption is feasible in turfgrass with reductions in adult trap captures of up to 88% and reduction in larval populations of up to 74%. The 3M formulation used in 2002 and 2003 experiments appeared to be the most effective formulation at rates as low as 25 g [grams] ai/ha [active ingredient per hectare] per season." Also reports that "dispersible pheromone formulations can overcome the limitations of sprayable formulations." |
