“…Although our sample size in this study is relatively small, it provides a basis for future comparison to determine the degree of resistance and cross resistance in P. viteana populations across eastern North America. In vineyards with high pest pressure, maintaining protection against P. viteana requires effective residues for the long period of egg laying during the summer generations (Isaacs et al, 2012). Although registered rates of the tested insecticides may still control moths when recently applied, the results presented here suggest that residual control may decline as the insecticide residues degrade, helping to explain the greater levels of infestation observed recently.…”

“…

In vineyards across eastern North America, grape berry moth (GBM), Paralobesia viteana, is a major pest causing significant economic loss in vineyards during some growing seasons (Isaacs et al, 2012). In recent years, this pest has caused significant crop loss at multiple vineyard sites in Michigan due to contamination by larvae and the associated fungi that reduce fruit quality below acceptable standards, forcing some growers to be unable to harvest and sell their crop.

Grape berry moth is a major pest of vineyards across eastern North America. Increasing infestations in Michigan commercial vineyards under active pest management have raised concerns about insecticide resistance in this species. We tested the susceptibility of male moths of this pest from 5 vineyards in southwestern Michigan over 2 years using a range of concentrations, followed by probit analysis of the resulting mortality data. In 2021 and 2022, topical applications of phosmet and zeta‐cypermethrin were applied to moths collected from each vineyard, and the LC50, LC90 and LC99 values were calculated for each population. The LC50 values were similar among sites, whereas the LC99 values for phosmet were highly variable across years, with sensitivity 2.78 times higher in 2022 than 2021 at Farm 2 and 61.66‐fold higher in 2021 at Farm 3. Sensitivity to zeta‐cypermethrin was generally similar between years at the LC50 level, but it was variable at the LC99, with two sites showing lower sensitivity in 2022 compared to 2021 and three farms with an increased sensitivity in 2022. The response to carbaryl was similar for Farm 3 across both years. However, in 2022 the LC50, LC90 and LC99 values in Farm 3 were 2.34, 6.33 and 14.29‐fold, respectively, higher compared to those in Farm 5. In conclusion, our results show that sensitivity to insecticides in grape berry moth populations in southwest Michigan vineyards is highly variable between different farms and across years. These results highlight the need for continued monitoring of sensitivity to insecticides in this species, and development and implementation of alternative control strategies in vineyards to maintain pest susceptibility to insecticides.

“…Tortricid moths that can coexist with EGVM, especially in the larval stage, include E. ambiguella (the cochylis), Argyrotaenia ljungiana (Thunberg) (the eulia) and Sparganothis pilleriana (Denis & Schiffermüller) (the vine pyral) (Bovey 1966). A vicariant species of EGVM, Paralobesia viteana (Clemens), is an important grape pest in easthern North America (Rufus et al 2012). The honeydew moth Cryptoblabes gnidiella (Millière) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae Phycitinae) is an opportunistic moth (Torres-Vila et al 2002a) whose association to vine was early known (Feytaud 1924) and that recently became a primary pest in Italy (Lucchi et al 2019).…”

Though the European grapevine moth, Lobesia botrana (Denis & Schiffermüller) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) can feed on more than forty plant species, grapevine is the preferred crop worldwide. This moth is a western palearctic species that has recently spread to Chile, Argentina, and California. The possible further expansion in other regions of the Americas is greatly feared and should be monitored carefully in the near future. In this framework, we provide an updated review of the current knowledge on its taxonomy, morphology, biology, ecology, genomics, geographic distribution, and invasiveness. Then, in the last section, we develop a research agenda pointing out significant challenges for future investigations on bio-ecology and invasion biology, which are tightly connected with the prevention and management strategies.

“…The damage caused by the first generation larvae on the developing clusters is less severe than that caused by the second generation (Figure 1 (12)). The injuries they cause promote the spread of the causal fungus of grey mould (Botrytis cinerea), which may damage part or all of the affected clusters [46]. In Quebec vineyards, as chemical treatment of first generation larvae has little impact on damage levels at harvest, control efforts are typically carried out when necessary against second generation larvae.…”

In Quebec (Canada), viticulture is practiced at the fringe of what is known as a cool climate area. Quebec has a very recent history of viticultural entomology as the first artisanal permit for wine making was issued by the Quebec Government in 1985, and the first formal research project about arthropods associated with vineyards was initiated in 1997. The Quebec viticultural industry has consistently developed over ca. 35 years and, given the prospects of global warming, warmer abiotic conditions will allow to cultivate cultivars of better oenological value. Meanwhile, some invasive species that recently arrived in Quebec are causing concerns because they are threatening the sustainability of pest management programs. In this article, we will review of the evolution of entomological research in Quebec vineyards. We will then treat technology transfer activities that allowed to translate research results into protection programs. Finally, we will discuss new and coming entomological problems that are challenging the sustainability of pest management programs in Quebec vineyards.
