Evaluation of current management strategies for the tarnished plant bug and tobacco thrips in midsouthern cottonLipsey, Hunter Lane 13 December 2024 (has links) (PDF)
The tarnished plant bug, Lygus lineolaris (Palisot de Beauvois), is an important economic pest of cotton, Gossypium hirsutum (L.), in the Midsouth region of the United States. An experiment was conducted to determine the impact of insecticide class loss on yield and Lygus populations in the recently commercialized ThryvOn cotton technology. Data indicated no significant yield loss when excluding any currently utilized insecticide class for tarnished plant bug management. An additional objective was to reevaluate the sampling interval necessary to scout ThryvOn cotton for Lygus. No significant differences were observed between a 3 or 7-day sample interval compared to plots treated weekly. A third experiment was performed to determine the efficacy of various at-planting insecticides across the Midsouthern United States for the control of thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in seedling cotton. No definitive changes in percent control of immature thrips were observed from 2014-2023.
