“…Chemical and biological control are used to control this pest. Chemical control is difficult because F. occidentalis has become resistant to many insecticides (Robb, 1989;Immaraju et al, 1992;Brødsgaard, 1994). Furthermore, the use of insecticides to control F. occidentalis limits biological control methods against other pests.…”

Key words: Frankliniella occidentalis, Cucumis sativus, biotype, host plant resistance, life history, population growth rate AbstractBiotypic variation is of major concern in breeding for host plant resistance to insects. The existence or development of aggressive biotypes can lead to a rapid break-down of host plant resistance. Therefore the study of biotypic variation should be included in breeding programs for resistance to insects. In the present study we measured the reproduction of randomly collected females of ten different populations of the insect herbivore Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) on one susceptible and two resistant cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) accessions. Significant differences between thrips populations were observed on all three cucumber accessions. None of the populations had a significantly higher reproduction than the Dutch reference population NL1. For three populations, the Dutch population NL1, a population from New Zealand (NZ), and an Italian population (IT), partial life history parameters, such as reproduction rate, developmental time and survival were determined and the relative rate of increase r r was calculated. On all three cucumber accessions the r r -value of population NZ was lower than of populations NL1 and IT. It is concluded that there is biotypic variation in F. occidentalis with regard to performance on cucumber plants with different levels of resistance. Reproduction is a good criterion for differentiating biotypes of F. occidentalis on cucumber.

“…Neither of these genetic species corresponds to the historic morphological descriptions of the species of F. moultoni (Hood) or F. occidentalis (Pergande). The "lupin" and "glasshouse" designations are based on the similarity of certain individuals with a "western flower thrips" population that has been associated with Lupinus arboreus in New Zealand since the 1930's (Martin & Workman, 1994) and other individuals corresponding to pest strains found in European glasshouses (Brødsgaard, 1994). This recognition of species diversity within "F. occidentalis" adds uncertainty as to which species is under consideration in earlier literature.…”

“…Since the first reported case of control failures with insecticides (toxaphene, an organochlorine, Race, 1961), there have been numerous incidences of resistance reported to all major classes of insecticides from all regions of the world (Bielza et al, 2007b;Brødsgaard, 1994;Daǧli & Tunç, 2007;Immaraju et al, 1992;Jensen, 2000a;Kay & Herron, 2010;Morishita, 2001;Robb et al, 1995;Weiss et al, 2009;Zhao et al, 1995). Resistance has not only developed against insecticides targeting western flower thrips, but also insecticides used to treat other pest species.…”

“…Kontsedalov et al (1998) reported that resistance to the pyrethroid cypermethrin did not decline after more than seven years of non-exposure for a laboratory colony. Likewise, resistance to organophosphates can be maintained in field and laboratory populations for several years without exposure (Brødsgaard, 1994;Robb, 1989). Bielza et al (2008) compared fecundity, fertility, longevity, and egg-to-adult developmental time in populations of western flower thrips from Spain that were resistant and susceptible to acrinathrin (pyrethroid) and spinosad (a spinosyn formulation, see below), and found that resistance to either material did not carry significant fitness costs, at least in terms of the parameters they measured.…”

“…But, chemical control is not always effective due to resistance in WFT to insecticides used in greenhouse crops (Brødsgaard 1994;Zhao et al 1995;Broadbent and Pree 1997). The cryptic behavior of WFT in flower buds also makes it less easy for insecticides to regulate the WFT population.…”

Abstract:We assessed the influence of nine biopesticides on adults and larvae of western flower thrips (WFT), Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) and its predator, the anthocorid Orius laevigatus (Fieber) under Mediterranean greenhouse conditions. Trials were carried out in a strawberry crop where both species had naturally established. Foliar sprays were applied weekly for one month. Treatments did not provide sufficient control of larval and adult F. occidentalis. The negative effects on the dynamics of the predator were evident only with the use of some specific products. The botanical insecticides rotenone and neem, and the nematode Steinernema feltiae (Filipjev) reduced O. laevigatus numbers, and these effect are evident in the adult stage of O. laevigatus. Such products have determined a reduction of the population of the predator from the first treatments even if the incidence was not very high. We conclude that the use of some botanical pesticides and nematodes against WFT is uneconomical and possibly disadvantageous where there is an established predator-prey population.
