Table 1--Average number of lesions and severity of Alternaria alternata in leaves from different tangerine genotypes in the presence (CLM damage) and absence (CLM control) of citrus
leaf miner lesions (2010 and 2011).
Lepidoptera
leaf miners had a negative correlation with Z armillatus (r = -0.27; P = 0.002), a barely significant relation with P.
In addition, compared with
leaf miners in chambers with regular atmosphere, four times as many insects in the high-C[O.sub.2] chambers were killed by parasitic wasps.
Common
leaf miners were in the family Gracillaridae.
Over the course of the growing season, the scientists surveyed thousands of leaves in every cylinder and recorded the fates of the
leaf miners. Those in the chambers with elevated [CO.sub.2] dug out mines that were 20 percent larger--indicating they ate that much more leaf fiber--than did
leaf miners in the chambers filled with standard air.
Our results revealed that armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, aphid (Sitobian avenae L.) and
leaf miner [Aproaerema modicella]are important pests of berseem while the coccinellids and a syrphid fly are important predators.
adults and percentages of leaflet areas with theirs galls as well as lepidopteran
leaf miners in the winter were probably due to longer time of exposure of the C.
Leaf mines were kept in plastic pots until adult
leaf miners or their parasitoids were obtained.
Gently squash
leaf miners with your fingers or remove infested leaves.
Well, maybe
leaf miners, but that is easy to handle.
(d) What are
leaf miners? Young leaves; burrowing bees; leaf-eating caterpillars.
From next October there will be no chemical controls for lawn pests, soil grubs that devastate many vegetable crops, chrysanthemum and other
leaf miners, and a range of problems that afflict fruit and vegetables, from plums to gooseberries and leeks to asparagus.
