The experiment was located in Gadsden County, Fla., and planted on 23 May. Plot size was 8 rows by 15 m with 0.76-m row spacing. Experimental design was a randomized complete block, with 4 replicates. All treatments were applied 13 Sep, except for a treatment of the VBC nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AgNPV), which was applied on 28 Aug. All applications were made with a 2-row, CO2-powered backpack sprayer equipped with 3 D3 nozzles/row. Each treatment was applied at 36 psi at a rate of 25 gal/acre. Efficacy data were collected by taking 25 sweeps/plot with a 0.38-m-diam sweep net on each of 3 dates. The 2 center rows of each plot were not sampled, and yield estimates were made by harvesting 30 m of these rows on 7 Nov
The experiment was located in Gadsden County, Fla., and planted 23 May. Plot size was 8 rows × 15 m with a 0.91-m row spacing. Experimental design was a randomized complete block, with 4 replications. All treatments were applied on 22 Aug, except for a treatment of the VBC nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AgNPV) which was applied on 17 Aug. All applications were made with a 2-row, CO2-powered backpack sprayer that was equipped with 3, D3 nozzles/row. Each treatment was applied at about 36 psi, with the amount of spray about 25 gal/acre. Efficacy data were made by taking 25 sweeps/plot with a 0.38-m-diam sweepnet on each of 5 dates. The 2 center rows of each plot were not sampled, and yield estimates were made by harvesting 10 m of these rows on 11 Nov.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
