Seasonal abundance of whitefly nymphs, primarily sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), and bandedwinged whitefly, Trialeurodes abutilonea (Haldeman), on leaves of germplasm lines and cultivars of cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., were determined in field plots at Maricopa, AZ, in 1987. In general, the germplasm lines with the greatest numbers of leaf trichomes (range 2 to 98 per cm2) had the greatest numbers of nymphs (range 0.4 to 11.3 nymphs per leaf on 23 September). The okra-leaf characteristic did not have a consistent effect on the numbers of nymphs. Deltapine 20, Centennial, and Stoneville 506 cultivars planted on 30 April had significantly greater infestations (range 20.3 to 121.3 nymphs per leaf) on 16 October than did the same cultivars planted 21 May (range 4.5 to 53.0) or 11 June (range 7.0 to 31.5). The nectariless okra-leaf line WC-12NL and cultivar Deltapine 61 had 1.1 and 1.5 nymphs per leaf on 22 September, respectively, not significantly different.

The flight activities of adult sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, and leafhoppers were monitored by plastic cup traps at Boğalı, Taşçı, Hacıali, Doğankent and Balcalı in the Çukurova Plain, Turkey, in 2001 and 2003. Activity of B. tabaci, expressed as numbers of adults caught in traps, was low from May to early July in both years. Numbers of B. tabaci caught at Tasçı were higher than at Boğalı from 10 July and 21 August in 2001. Its numbers were also higher at Doğankent than at Hacıali and Balcalı during August of 2003. The numbers of leafhopper adults caught fluctuated greatly in both years. Numbers remained low until late June, followed by gradual increases in July and August at Boğalı and Taşçı in 2001. In contrast, numbers of adults caught were higher at Hacıali, Doğankent and Balcalı from May through July in 2003, followed by lower catches during the remainder of the season. Daily minimum temperatures in July and August were positively correlated with higher trap catches of both B. tabaci and leafhoppers.

Abstract Background The misuse of chemical insecticides has developed the phenomenon of habituation in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) causing enormous economic losses under geothermal greenhouses in southern Tunisia. Results In order to develop means of biological control appropriate to the conditions of southern Tunisia, the efficacy of the native strain of the predator Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Hemiptera: Miridae) and two entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) Beauveria bassiana and Lecanicillium muscarium was tested against Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius). Indeed, the introduction of N. tenuis in doses of 1, 2, 3, or 4 nymphs per tobacco plant infested by the whitefly led to highly significant reduction in the population of B. tabaci, than the control devoid of predator. The efficacy of N. tenuis was very high against nymphs and adults of B. tabaci at all doses per plant with a rate of 98%. Likewise, B. bassiana and L. muscarium, compared to an untreated control, showed a very significant efficacy against larvae and adults of B. tabaci. In addition, the number of live nymphs of N. tenuis treated directly or introduced on nymphs of B. tabaci treated with the EPF remained relatively high, exceeding 24.8 nymphs per cage compared to the control (28.6). Conclusions It can be concluded that the native strain of N. tenuis and the EPF tested separately were effective against B. tabaci. Their combined use appears to be possible.
