Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Wireworms assembled in increasing numbers at treated and untreated wheat rows as planting density rose.
- Intervention effect Treated wheat seedlings had no apparent wireworm damage at any planting density.
- Association The number of wireworms sampled in treated wheat rows increased asymptotically with seeding density.
- Observation The modeled mortality intersection in treated wheat plots was 1.14 seeds/cm on 18 June 1996.
- Observation Untreated wheat suffered severe wireworm damage and significantly reduced stand at all densities.
- Observation Fewer wireworms assembled at surviving untreated wheat than at treated wheat.
- Association Wireworms at surviving untreated wheat increased with seeding density without following the asymptotic model.
- Recommendation The authors suggest treated wheat trap crops can aggregate and kill many A. obscurus in fallowed fields over 19 days.
