Evaluation of several insecticides for residual insecticidal activity against adult Thrips tabaci Lindeman and inhibition of Iris yellow spot virus (IYSV) transmission.
Abstract:Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) necrotic ring spot disease caused by Iris yellow spot virus (IYSV) is one of the most devastating lisianthus diseases. We tested several insecticides under both experimental and field condition to determine the length of the their residual activity in killing the thrips vector (Thrips tabaci) and their ability to inhibit IYSV transmission. The survival rate of T. tabaci was significantly low, and their ability to transmit IYSV was greatly inhibited after treatment with either … Show more
