Biological parameters of three Trichogramma pretiosum strains (Riley, 1879) (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) on eggs Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner, 1805) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Acta sci., Biol. sci; 39 (3), 2017
This project has an objective to study the biological parameters of Trichogramma pretiosum on eggs of H. armigera. The three strains of T. pretiosum were evaluated: TM, TMC and TLEM, from different places. The experimental establishing was completely randomizing with twenty repeats per treatment, being u...

Biological performance of the predatory mite Neoseiulus idaeus (Phytoseiidae): a candidate for the control of tetranychid mites in Brazilian soybean crops

Braz. j. biol; 77 (2), 2017
Abstract The soybean (Glycine max (L.): Fabaceae) is considered the most important agricultural crop in Brazil. Phytophagous tetranychid mites as Mononychellus planki McGregor, Tetranychus ludeni Zacher and T. urticae Koch have been considered pest in soybean crops. Neoseiulus idaeus Denmark & Muma (...

Characterization of Cry toxins from autochthonous Bacillus thuringiensis isolates from Mexico

Abstract: Background: Chemical pesticides, widely used in agriculture and vector-borne disease control, have shown toxic effects on the environment and the people in contact with them. Bacillus thuringiensis is a widely used bacterium for alternative and safer control of insect pests. Its toxins are sp...

Screening of melon genotypes for resistance to vegetable leafminer and your phenotypic correlations with colorimetry

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (2), 2017
ABSTRACT Melon is one of the most important vegetable crops in the world. With short cycle in a system of phased planting, phytosanitary control is compromised, and a great volume of agricultural chemicals is used to control vegetable leafminer. Genetic control is an ideal alternative to avoid the damage...

Duddingtonia flagrans no controle de nematoides gastrintestinais de equinos em fases de vida livre

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a atividade predatória do fungo Duddingtonia flagrans contra larvas infectantes (L3) de nematoides gastrintestinais na pastagem e no bolo fecal de equinos, em um período de 21 dias.
