Stankevych S.V., Yevtushenko M.D., Vilna V.V. Dominant pests of spring rape and mustard in the eastern Forest- Steppe of Ukraine and ecologic protection from them

Publishing House I.Ivanchenko. — 140 p. — ISBN: 978-617-7879-04-5.The species composition of spring rape and mustard pests in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine is specified. For the first time the seasonal dynamics in the number of cruciferous fleas, bugs and rape blossom beetle on the spring rape and mustard crops was determined in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine; the main host plants as reservoirs for these species of harmful insects were identified. The high efficiency of spring rape crops protection against the cruciferous fleas by the method of presowing toxicity of seeds with the systemic insecticides based on imidacloprid and thiamethoxam with the subsequent ground spraying with the insecticides based on lambda-cyhalothrin against the background with the fertilizers (N30P30K30) was proved. The influence of treatment the spring rape seed with the insectofungicidal mixtures on the laboratory and field germination was determined. The expediency and effectiveness of application of the microbiological preparation Actophyte, 0,25 % of emulsion.
concentrate in combination with the systemic insecticide Biscaya, 24 % of oily dispersion against the rape blossom beetle and cruciferous bugs on spring rape and mustard crops by the method of spraying the plants in the phenophase of the yellow bud were proved.
The monograph will be useful for the plant protection experts, researchers and agronomists, teachers, graduate students and students of biological and agricultural specialties of higher education institutions and for all those interested in increasing the yield capacity and quality of spring rape and mustard seeds.Pests of oil producing cabbage crops in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine.
