Abstract: | Nine compounds and three modes of applications were tested to improve the control of twoCapnodis spp.,C. tenebrionis L. and C.carbonaria Klug (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), in local stone-fruit plantations. The best result was obtained by azinphos-methyl applied
as a foliar spray. Suitable chemicals for dusting were methiocarb, azinphos-methyl and carbosulfan applied to the stem in
late spring or prior to fruit harvest. Soil application of imidacloprid as a systemic insecticide is successful for protection
of young plantations and nurseries. C.tenebrionis was less susceptible thanC. carbonaria to the tested insecticides. |
