The Pherocon Ic trap captured the greatest number of Cydia caryana (Fitch) adult males and all trap designs appeared to represent population trends equally well. Pooled data from all trap height experiments indicate that traps placed 9.14 m above the orchard floor captured significantly more adult males than those placed at 4.57 m height. Horizontal placement of traps within the tree canopy indicated a significantly greater capture in the central portion of the canopy than at other locations. Correlations between the total capture of male adults and the rate of fruit infestation were not significant.
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.
