(Myrtales: Myrtaceae) and the tropical almond Terminalia catappa L. (Myrtales: Combretaceae) are widely cultivated in urban and forest areas of many countries where biological control is the most-preferred method to control insects. Aximopsis sp. (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae)...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of nitrogen sources and rates on the physicochemical characteristics and yield of tomato plants. Forty hybrids were cultivated at 100 and 400 kg ha-1 of N, combined with four sources (urea, ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate and calcium), plus a treatment without N application in a randomized complete block design four replicates. Size, stem diameter, numbe...

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a distribuição espacial de tripes em diferentes cultivos, e a correlação entre os parâmetros meteorológicos e o movimento de voo dessa praga, com uso de imunomarcação. O experimento foi conduzido em área cultivada com tomate (Solanum lycopersicum), batata (Solanum tuberosum) e cebola (Allium cepa); e não cultivada, com plantas daninhas. As áreas com tomate (100 dias), batat...
Este trabalho objetivou estudar a seletividade dos inseticidas carbaril, deltametrina, paratiom metílico, permetrina e triclorfom em favor do predador Doru luteipes (Scudder) (Dermaptera: Forficulidae) e do parasitóide Cotesia sp. (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), em relação ao controle do curuquerê Ascia monuste orseis (Godart) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae). Foram determinadas as CL90 para A. monuste orseis e estas foram u...
The green scale, Coccus viridis (Green) (Hemiptera: Coccidae), is an insect pest of coffee and several other perennial cultivated plant species. We investigated changes in alkaloid and phenolic contents in coffee plants as a response to herbivory by this insect. Greenhouse‐grown, 11‐month‐old coffee plants were artificially infested with the coccid and compared with control, uninfested plants. Leaf samples were...
Jatropha curcas possui alto teor de óleo biocombustível que poderia substituir os combustíveis poluentes, possuindo grande potencial para o cultivo em larga escala de monocultivos no sistema convencional. Nós exploramos a ocorrência, a distribuição espacial e a resposta funcional das principais espécies fitófagas e seus inimigos naturais com potencial para controle biológico conservativo. Começamos a amostragem...
This study evaluated toxic effects, repellency and respiration rate caused by terpenoid constituents of cinnamon and clove essential oils and against Sitophilus granarius L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). The lethal concentrations (LC 50 and LC 90 ), repellent effect, and behavior repellency response on adults of S. granarius after exposure to six concentrations of each essential oil and terpenoids were evaluated...
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) can only result in reduced insecticide use when treatments are applied when infestations reach economic thresholds (ET) determined from economic injury levels (EIL). The objective of this study was to determine the EIL and ET for Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) and Liriomyza huidobrensis (Burgess) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in 8 and 11 fields of the potat...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-03-01; The understory in forest plantations can increase richness and diversity of natural enemies due to greater plant species richness. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that the presence of the understory and climatic season in the region (wet or dry) can increase the richness and abund...
