Abstract | ||||
Alternative means of control (sex pheromone mass trapping, horticultural, mechanical, and local chemical treatments) were evaluated at Nubaria district, Behera governorate during 1, 2, and 3 sucePcsive years (2000, 2001, and/or 2002) against Zeuzera pyrina. The rate of reduction of Z. pyrina with whole year pheromone treatment revealed 62.27, 71.50 and 82.39%, pruning treatment 19.93, 23.20 and 30.49%, worming treatment 40.07, 53.25 and 61.55%, whole year local painting 80.90, 88.65 and 94.46%, whole year local spraying 58.50, 68.60 and 71.45%, whole year complete coverage spraying 82.83, 92.75 and 97.92%, partial pheromone and pruning 69.40, 80.05 and 86.55%, partial pheromone and worming treatments 86.47, 94.25 and 98.48%), partial pheromone and local painting 79.80, 87.45 and 95.27%, partial pheromone and local spraying 70.27, 95.65 and 98.86%, partial pheromone and complete coverage spraying 86.03, 95.65 and 98.86%, when applied for 1, 2, and 3 successive years, respectively. | ||||
