  • Foliar application of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema feltiae against leafminers on vegetables.
    Biocontrol Science and Technology, 2000
    Co-Authors: E. C. Williams, Keith F. A. Walters
    Abstract:

    Data from a comparative study of the efficacy of Steinernema feltiae for the control of three species of leafminer formed the basis of an application schedule which successfully suppressed an outbreak of the statutory leafminer pest, Liriomyza huidobrensis . All three instars of Liriomyza bryoniae and L. huidobrensis were similarly susceptible to S. feltiae at 20 o C and > 90% relative humidity (RH). Although all larval instars of Chromatomyia syngenesiae were susceptible to S. feltiae , mortality was lower than for L. bryoniae . Repeat applications of S. feltiae to L. bryoniae and C. syngenesiae indicated that a nematode treatment to the second/early third instar larvae was more effective than applying higher rates of nematodes when humidities were less than 90% RH. In a trial on lettuce at a commercial glasshouse a mean L. huidobrensis mortality of 82 +/- 5% was recorded after an S. feltiae application, significantly higher than the chemical treatment, heptenophos.

  • critical factors required by the nematode steinernema feltiae for the control of the leafminers Liriomyza huidobrensis Liriomyza bryoniae and chromatomyia syngenesiae
    Annals of Applied Biology, 1995
    Co-Authors: E. C. Williams, O C Macdonald
    Abstract:

    Summary The critical factors required by entomopathogenic nematodes for the control of dipteran leafminers were investigated and compared. The foliar application of Steinernema feltiae and Heterorhabditis sp. (strain UK 211) caused a significant reduction in the numbers of dipteran leafminer larvae. There was no significant difference in efficacy between these nematode species against Liriomyza huidobrensis at 20°C and 85–90% r.h. Application of S. feltiae to all three larval instars of L. huidobrensis significantly reduced larval survival, with application to the second instar being the most effective at 20 ± 2°C and 80 ± 10% r.h. Humidities of >90% significantly enhanced the efficacy of S. feltiae. When S. feltiae was applied to second instar larvae, it was equally effective throughout the temperature range 10–30°C. At 20°C and >90% r.h., sufficient nematodes were able to enter the leaf tissues within the first 12 h after application to reduce larval survival to c. 15%. A comparison between L. huidobrensis, L. bryoniue and Chromatomyia syngenesiue indicated that the efficacy of S. feltiae was affected by the same critical factors for all three species.
