“…The most frequent causes of lower yields in ecological farming systems are: shortage of nutrient content during spring season, great competition of weed and insufficient plant protection against diseases and pests. Primary in pests control against colorado Potato Beetles in ecological faming were acquired excellent results by use of bio-insecticide NovoDoR (86 % effectiveness) [23]. Good results were acquired also by use of physical methods of pests control, when open flame performed better than hot water steam and pneumatic collector with 56 % efficiency [24].…”

The yield and other quantitative (number of plants, number of tubers, weight of tubers per 1 m 2 ) and qualitative parameters (content of vitamin c, starch, nitrogen and dry matter) of the Solanum tuberosum l. early variety "collete" have been studied in ecological and low-input farming systems with two levels of organic fertilization during [2003][2004][2005]. The experiment was situated in water-protected zone of western Slovakia on luvi-Haplic chernozem. after harvest of forecrop in higher level of organic fertilization treatment catch crop -phacelia and mustard was grown. Highly significant differences in each studied parameters of potato tubers between certain years were ascertained, thus great influence of weather conditions on quality and quantity of potatoes was confirmed. Yields was highly significantly influenced also by farming systems, when in low-input system the average yield was 21.38 t ha -1 and in ecological system 20.02 t ha -1 . Green manure management did not influence yield significantly. In treatment without green manure the average yield 20.47 t ha -1 was reached with comparison to green manure application treatments 20.93 t ha -1 . In low-input system significantly higher C vitamin content (4.23 mg 100g -1 ) was ascertained compared to ecological one 3.53 mg 100g -1 . other qualitative parameters were more or less on the same level. We recommended both farming system for growing potatoes in water vulnerable zones and for better fulfil the Good Agricultural Practices in Slovak conditions.

В четвертому розділі акцентується, що на сьогоднішній день комахи-шкідники є однією з головних проблем у сільському господарстві, тому вкрай необхідні передові технічні рішення для раннього виявлення шкідників рослин, запобігання небажаному споживанню пестицидів та екологічних засобів боротьби з більшістю їх різновидів. Запропонований пневматичний пристрій для збирання шкідників. Аналітично досліджена детермінована математична модель руху шкідників у повітряному потоці пневмопристрою пневмодезинсектора. Визначена швидкість повітря в щілинах всмоктуючої насадки яка напряму впливає на ефективність її роботи. Розроблена та теоретично досліджена запропонована конструкція пристрою для збирання шкідників, може дати можливість не тільки якісно виконати процес збирання шкідників пасльонових культур, а і уникнути пошкодження оброблюваної рослини.

“…Crop rotation (Lashomb and Ng, 1984;Weisz et al, 1994;Speese Iii and Sterrett, 1998;Huseth et al, 2012), the use of plastic-lined trenches (Boiteau and Vernon, 2001), straw mulch (Stoner et al, 1996;Stoner, 1997), trap cropping (Hunt and Whitfield, 1996;Hoy et al, 2000), thermal control (Rifai et al, 2004), and electromagnetic control (Colpitts et al, 1992) are a few examples of cultural, mechanical and physical control options. Interestingly, combining the dispersal behavior of L. decemlineata, which despite their ability to fly mainly disperse by walking, and the rotation of potato fields with non-host crops can reduce adult abundance (Follett et al, 1996;Hough-Goldstein and Whalen, 1996;.…”

Identifying Resistance to the Colorado Potato Beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say) in Potato Germplasm: Review Update

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Developing plant germplasm that contains genetic resistance to insect pests is a valuable component of integrated pest management programs. In the last several decades, numerous attempts have been made to identify genetic sources of resistance to Colorado potato beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). This review focuses on compiling information regarding general L. decemlineata biology, ecology, and management focusing on discussing biochemical and morphological potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plant traits that might be responsible for providing resistance; the review ends discussing past efforts to identify genetic material and highlights promising new strategies that may improve the efficiency of evaluation and selection of resistant material. Measurement strategies, that begin with field screening of segregating populations or wild germplasm to narrow research focus can be useful. Identifying particularly resistant or susceptible germplasm, will help researchers focus on studying the mechanisms of resistance in much greater detail which will help the development of long-term sustainable management program.
