EFFECT OF NUTRIENTS ON THE GROWTH AND PHENOLOGY OF GASCARDIA DESTRUCTOR (NEWSTEAD) AND CEROPLASTES SINENSIS DEL GUERCIO (HEMIPTERA: COCCIDAE) INFESTING CITRUS

Abstract: The growth and phenology of white wax scale, Gascurdiu destructor (Newstead), and Chinese wax scale, Ceroplastes sinensis del Guercio, infesting Valencia orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck), were influenced by nitrogen content but not by other nutrients.

“…C. destructor is also univoltine in South Africa (Cilliers 1967) and most of New South Wales (Gellatley 1968;Milne 1981;Beattie et al 1990), but bivoltine in northern New South Wales (Gellatley 1968) and Queensland (Smith 1970;Smith & Ironside 1974). C. sinensis produces one generation a year in New South Wales (Snowball 1970;Beattie et al 1990) and Virginia (Pollet 1972).…”

“…The nutritional status and cultivar of host plants also influences scale phenology. C. destructor and C. sinensis on citrus trees with high levels of nitrogen matured earlier than those on trees with low levels of nitrogen (Beattie et al 1990). Scale species can also vary in their growth and rate of development on different citrus cultivars (Hare et al 1990).…”
