Title
Carbaryl as a Component in Integrated Crop Management of Apple
R. W. Straub; E. Stover; P. J. Jentsch Journal of Economic Entomology 1997. doi:10.1093/jee/90.5.1315
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Adding carbaryl to naphthaleneacetic acid or 6-benzyl adenine significantly enhanced apple fruit thinning in most cases.
- Intervention effect Adding carbaryl to naphthaleneacetic acid or 6-benzyl adenine increased apple fruit size in most cases.
- Intervention effect Two thinning rates of carbaryl significantly reduced early-season leafhopper nymph infestations in apple.
- Intervention effect The highest carbaryl rate suppressed leafhopper nymphs and adults in apple for the entire season.
- Intervention effect The highest carbaryl rate allowed lower leaf damage ratings in apple.
- Recommendation Carbaryl fits well into integrated crop management programmes on apple in orchards that do not rely on natural control of phytophagous mites.
