Evaluation of Biological Insecticides for Control of Beet Armyworm in Lettuce

Palumbo, John C., Butler, Marvin D., Mullis, Clayton H. Jr. 05 1900 (has links)
A field study was conducted at Yuma in 1990 to examine the efficacy of several biological insecticide formulations on beet armyworm in seedling lettuce. After a single application at thinning, none of the insecticides adequately reduced larval populations below damaging levels. Reductions in plant stand by larvalfeeding were significantly lower in plots treated with Lannate, Javelin, Biobit and Dipel. Lettuce seedling densities were reduced greaterthan 80% in untreated plots.

Field Evaluation of Potential New Fungicides for Control of Lettuce Downey and Powdery Mildew in 1994 and 1995

Matheron, Michael E., Porchas, Martin 08 1900 (has links)
Downy and powdery mildew are caused by the plant pathogenic fungi Bremia lactucae and Erysiphe cichoracearum, respectively. Cool and moist environmental conditions favor development of downy mildew, while warmer and dry weather is conducive for development of powdery mildew. Potential new fungicides were evaluated for control of these diseases during 1994 and 1995. In 1994, downy mildew did not occur in the test plots; however, powdery mildew was severe and was controlled most effectively by Microthiol. In the 1995 study, both downy and powdery mildew developed in the test plots. The highest level of downy mildew control was achieved with three experimental compounds, Fluazinam, Dimethomorph, and BAS-490. The most effective fungicides for control of powdery mildew in 1995 were BAS-490 and Microthiol.

Efficacy of Insecticides to Green Peach Aphid on Iceberg Lettuce

Kerns, David L., Palumbo, John C. 08 1900 (has links)
Three tests were conducted evaluating foliar and soil applied aphicides for efficacy to green peach aphid infesting iceberg lettuce. Aphid population densites were low in all three studies and differences among treatments were difficult to discern. At low aphid populations we could not detect whether or not soil applications of Admire enhanced or inhibited the activity of subsequent foliar applications of other aphicides. Although when used alone, some products did offer statistically significant aphid control. However, in a commercial setting these differences would probably not be significant. At low aphid populations none of the pyrethroid tank mixes evaluated gave significantly better aphid control than the products used alone. All of the experimental aphicides evaluated appeared to have some degree of efficacy to green peach aphid.

Efficacy of Biorational Insecticides to Beet Armyworm and Cabbage Looper on Iceberg Lettuce

Kerns, David L. 08 1900 (has links)
Four tests were conducted evaluating biorational insecticides for control of beet armyworm (BAW) and cabbage looper (CL) on iceberg lettuce. Treatment means for BAW were difficult to separate due to low population densities. The new formulation of Javelin appeared to be the most efficacious Bt overall. However, when Bts were compared on a equal cost/A basis, there were no significant derences among products for CL control. All Bts were comparable to Lannate for CL control. The neem oil extract Align, provided adequate BAW and CL control, and its efficacy at low rates seemed to be slightly enhanced by the addition of Sunspray Ultrafine Oil. Larvin at lower than label recommended rates gave good BAW and CL control as did Javelin. The tank-mix of these two products did not enhance worm control over that of the products used alone. Mustang gave good control of CL but appeared to be slightly weak against BAW.

Field Evaluation of Potential New Fungicides for Control of Sclerotinia Leaf Drop of Lettuce in 1994 and 1995

Matheron, Michael E., Misaghi, Iraj J., Porchas, Martin, DeCianne, Dominic 08 1900 (has links)
Leaf drop of lettuce is caused by the plant pathogenic fungi Sclerotinia minor and S. sclerotiorum. Cool and moist environmental conditions favor disease development. Potential new fungicides were evaluated in field trials for control of this disease in 1994 and 1995. In the 1994 trial, Fluazinam and Topsin M provided significant decrease of disease and significant increase inmarketable yield compared to no treatment in plots infested with Sclerotinia minor or S. sclerotiorum. In 1995, Fluazinam, Topsin M, and two compounds from Ciba significantly reduced disease caused by Sclerotinia minor and increased marketable yield of treated lettuce when compared to nontreated plots.

Use of Non Toxic Materials for Whitefly Control and Growth Enhancement in Crisphead Lettuce

Molin, W. T., Oebker, N. F., Brown, J. K., Palumbo, J. C. 08 1900 (has links)
Field studies were conducted in Yuma and Tucson in 1993 to determine the effect of several non toxic substances purported to enhance growth and yield of lettuce, and to determine whether these treatments have an effect on whitefly populations. Five applications of the treatments were made beginning four weeks after planting and continuing at weekly intervals. Results indicated that there may be some positive effects of foliar applied methanol and nutrient (nitrogen/iron) treatments, as well as, from the use of Capture insecticide.

Field Emergence and Seedling Growth of Lettuce as Affected by Pre-Plant/Pre-Emergent Herbicides

Sill, David W., Tickes, Barry, Carey, Lisa A. 10 1900 (has links)
Pre plant and pre- emergence herbicides are commonly used in lettuce production. We investigated possible effects the herbicides benefin (Balan), pronamide (Kerb) and bensulfide (Prefar) had on emergence and seedling growth of several iceberg lettuce varieties that had been primed and pelleted by seed enhancement companies The herbicide Prefar and a mixture of Balan + Prefar had the greatest impact on dry weight regardless of variety, while seedlings grown on Kerby plots were not significantly different than seedlings from untreated plots. Dry weight accumulation and field emergence were influenced significantly by pellet types and priming methods.
