Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Charcoal seed piece treatments with phorate and Di-Syston gave good control of the green peach aphid for 77 days
- Intervention effect Granule applications of phorate or Di-Syston in the seed furrow controlled the green peach aphid for 86 days
- Intervention effect Di-Syston gave longer aphid control than phorate
- Intervention effect The demeton dip was more effective than the charcoal formulation in controlling the green peach aphid
- Intervention effect Control by the demeton dip was poor in general
- Intervention effect Demeton failed to control the leafhopper Empoasca filamenta
- Intervention effect Phorate or Di-Syston granules gave excellent control of the leafhopper Empoasca filamenta for 97 to 100 days
- Intervention effect Phorate and Di-Syston granules were about equal in effectiveness against the leafhopper
- Intervention effect Carbon formulations of phorate and Di-Syston were less effective than granules in controlling Empoasca filamenta
- Intervention effect Charcoal formulated phorate and Di-Syston better controlled the tobacco flea beetle than granules
- Intervention effect Phorate gave slightly better control of the tobacco flea beetle than Di-Syston
- Intervention effect Charcoal formulations of phorate and Di-Syston reduced potato stand in some instances
- Association Injury to potatoes was especially severe in peat soil
- Intervention effect Insecticide granules had less effect on delaying potato emergence than charcoal formulations
- Intervention effect Placing insecticide granules in fertilizer bands away from the seed pieces had little or no adverse effect on potato emergence and growth
- Intervention effect Treating seed pieces with demeton appeared to stimulate potato plant growth
- Intervention effect Plants from demeton-treated seed pieces emerged ahead of all other treatments
- Intervention effect Phorate applied to seed pieces or soil at planting left no detectable residues on potato tubers 74 or 91 days later
