Mating Disruption of Lobesia botrana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): Effect of Pheromone Formulations and Concentrations

Abstract: The reluctance of Israeli vine growers to adopt the mating disruption technique to control the moth Lobesia botrana Den. & Schiff. has been attributed to the high cost of this method compared with that of traditional insecticide control. In this study, we tested the possibility of reducing the cost, first by testing different pheromone formulations (and thus open the market for competition) and second by reducing the pheromone concentration used in vineyards. Comparisons were made between two pheromone formula… Show more

“…An optimization of the pheromone concentration is then necessary to allow reduction of the applied pheromone and therefore lowering the cost of the treatment. 139) Blend composition is also important since the different components should be stable under environmental conditions, and optimized to have the least expensive formulation possible, for instance using only the major component. 140) Other important factors for success imply to know the infestation level and the pheromone concentration in the treated areas.…”

“…Originally described as European grape moth it has also been found in vineyards in United States, South America, and Japan. L. botrana is a key pest of table and wine grape (V. vinifera), reducing yield and increasing susceptibility to fungal infections (15). Adult L. botrana oviposits on the grape berries and it causes direct damage to clusters when larvae feed within the berries, and indirect damage by fungal infestation of injured berries by Botrytis and other secondary fungi such as Aspergillus, Alternaria, Rhizopus, Cladosporium, and Penicillium (16).…”

“…Helicoverpa zea in corn (Carpenter et al 1982); Epiphyas postvittana in pine trees (Carpenter et al 1982;Webb et al 1990); Cydia pomonella in apple (Kehat et al 1995;Vickers et al 1998); Lobesia spec. in vineyards (Charmillot and Pasquier 2000;Feldhege et al 1993;Gordon et al 2005;Schmitz et al 1995)]. Further studies are needed with more horse chestnut leafminer densities and various pheromone dispenser distributions to reliably detect the limits of mating disruption with pheromones for horse chestnut leafminer control.…”
