Determining the Efficiency of Mass Trapping of Yellow Sticky Traps in Different Wavelengths Agains Pistachio Psyllid in Siirt Province [Agonescena Pistaciae Burc. and Laut. (Hemiptera: Psyllidae)]

Abstract

Original scientific paperThis study was conducted in gardens infested with pistachio psylla in Siirt Province between 2007 and 2010. It was detected that pistachio psylla forms were the highest populations in the pistachio gardens in the Central District of Siirt Province. It causes important damages particularly on young leaves in mid-June and in the maturing period of fruits in mid-and late-August. The yellow sticky trap coded 1016 B was found to be more effective than other coded traps. It was concluded that these traps were important for decreasing of the population of the pest in cases where the population is low. It was found that traps provided positive contribution if combined with other control methods. One of the best promising results was gathered when used in 4 traps for each tree and 7-day periods of hanging

The Capture Effect of Yellow Sticky Traps of Different Tones on Agalmatium bilobum (Fieber, 1877) (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Issidae) in Almond Orchards

“…Previous studies have focused on the effect of these coded tones to attract some pests. Thus, the psyllids (Hemiptera), Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt et Lauterer, 1989 (Aphalaridae) was catched with the 1016 codes trap while Cacopyslla pyri (L., 1761) (Psyllidae) was catched with for the 1023 coded trap (Özgen, Ayaz, Mutlu, & Bolu, 2013;Özgen et al, 2020;Kavak, Özgen, & Güral, 2020). Moreover, A. pistaciae studies were moved to the next stage and the most effective code was determined by making changes to the effective code (Altun, Yetkin, Işık, & Özgen, 2018;Özgen et al, 2020).…”

Population dynamics and parasitism rate of leafhopper species (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in maize (Zea mays L.) crop

“…The use/choice of these traps depends on insect and plant/crop species. Yellow sticky traps attract flying insects, especially those belonging to Hemiptera order [25,18,27,28]. Due to the reason, these traps are used to monitor and control/manage sucking pests in greenhouses and field conditions.…”
