Abstract Cotton was planted on 1 May in a Faceville loamy sand on 38-inch rows near Laurel Hill in southeastern NC. Recommended practices for fertility and weed management were followed, and 0.75 lb (AI)/acre Temik 15G used at planting for thrips control. Plots were 45 ft X 6 rows, with 10-ft alleys and 4 replications arranged in a RCBD. The entire test was oversprayed with 0.75 lb (AI)/acre Orthene 75S on 19 Jun to encourage TBW establishment via destruction of beneficial arthropods. A single application was applied to all plots on 30 Jun. All applications were applied with a CO2-pressurized backpack sprayer calibrated to deliver 8 gpa at 50 psi with a single Spraying Systems TX-8 hollow-cone nozzle per row. On 8 Jul, 25 terminals from each plot (total 100 per treatment) were examined for terminal and square damage by TBW and live larvae. Plots were not harvested. All data were analyzed by ANOVA and DMRT.

Abstract Cotton was planted on 4 May in a Norfolk loamy sand on 38-inch rows near Laurel Hill in southeastern NC. Recommended practices for fertility and weed management were followed, and 0.75 lb (AI)/acre Temik 15G used at planting for thrips control. Plots were 40 ft X 6 rows, with 10-ft alleys and 4 replications arranged in a RCBD. The entire test was oversprayed with 1.0 lb (AI)/acre Orthene 75S on 7 Jun to encourage TBW establishment via destruction of beneficial arthropods. A single application was applied to all plots on 21 Jun. All applications were applied with a CO2-pressurized back pack sprayer calibrated to deliver 8 gpa at 50 psi with a single Spraying Systems TX-8 hollow cone nozzle per row. On 27 Jun, 25 terminals from each plot were examined for TBW eggs, terminal damage from TBW and live larvae. No squares were present at this relatively late date and thus were not sampled. On 31 Jul, the number of white blooms and bolls was counted for 15 ft for each plot per replicate (60 ft total per treatment). Plots were harvested with a 2-row John Deere mechanical harvester on 18 Oct.

Chlorantraniliprole (=Rynaxypyr) is a novel anthranilic diamide insecticide that is of interest to vegetable growers because of its low mammalian toxicity and systemic properties. Field trials were conducted between 2006 and 2008 in North Carolina and Virginia to test the efficacy of chlorantraniliprole as a drip chemigation treatment on tomatoes. Drip chemigation of chlorantraniliprole at various rates and intervals significantly reduced the percentage of tomatoes damaged by tomato fruitworm (Helicoverpa zea) comparable to that typically achieved from multiple foliar applications of insecticides. The best control was achieved with two applications of chlorantraniliprole at 0.074 kg ai/ha, or a single application at 0.099 kg ai/ha. Residual ingestion bioassays showed that chlorantraniliprole was effectively taken up by the roots and was active in leaves up to 66 days after treatment (DAT), active in blossoms up to 22 DAT, but was not active in fruit. Drip chemigation of chlorantraniliprole may offer several advantages over foliar applications, including ease of application, reduced pesticide input into the environment, reduced worker exposure to pesticides, and reduced risk to beneficial arthropods.

Abstract Three tests, each consisting of 4-5 insecticide treatments were replicated 4 times in a RCBD at the Macon Ridge Branch of the Northeast Research Station, Winnsboro, LA. Cotton was planted 1 Jul into plots 4 rows (40 inch centers) by 30 ft. Treatments for Tests 1, 2 and 3 were applied on 2, 13 and 14 Sep, respectively, with a high clearance sprayer calibrated to deliver 11.5 gal total spray/acre through Teejet X-8 hollow cone nozzles (2/row) at 46 psi. Treatment efficacy was determined by taking a 10 sweep (standard 15 inch diam net) sample from each plot. Sweep samples were usually taken 2, 4-5 and 6-7 DAT on rows 1, 2 or 3, respectively. The test areas received 0.20, 0.67 and 1.1 inches rainfall on 6, 15 and 16 Sep, respectively.

Abstract Tomatoes were transplanted on 9 Aug at the Eastern Shore Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Painter, VA. Each plot consisted of a single row 20 ft X 5 ft, bordered on each side by an untreated guard row. On 1 Oct, heavy potato aphid populations developed in the test field. A pre-count of live aphids on 5 randomly picked compound leaves/plot was taken on this date and followed by a single application of all treatments. Treatments were applied with a backpack sprayer equipped with a 3 hollow cone nozzle boom and delivering 46 gal water/acre at 40 psi. To evaluate efficacy, the plots were sampled as previously described for the pre-count on the dates indicated in the table.

Abstract Six insecticide treatments were evaluated at the Macon Ridge Branch of the Northeast Research Station, Winnsboro, LA, to determine their efficacy in controlling the bollworm/tobacco budworm complex and boll weevils. Cotton was planted 18 Jun in plots consisting of 4 rows (40 inch centers) × 50 ft. Treatments were arranged in a RCBD with 4 replications. Treatments were applied with a high clearance sprayer calibrated to deliver 6 gal total spray/acre through Teejet X-8 hollow cone nozzles (2/row) at 46 psi. Insecticides were applied on 22, 26 Aug and 1 Sep against established populations of bollworms, tobacco budworms (primarily tobacco budworms) and boll weevils. Efficacy of the various treatments against these species was determined on 25, 31 Aug and 7 Sep by examining 50 squares/plot for evidence of feeding damage. Also numbers of larvae per 50 squares were recorded for the bollworm/tobacco budworm complex. The plots were mechanically harvested on 25 Oct to determine seed cotton yields. The test area received 0.57 and 0.20 inches rainfall on 1 and 6 Sep, respectively.

AbstractStudies were conducted at six locations across North Carolina to determine tolerance of ‘Sunbelt’ grape (bunch grape) and muscadine grape (‘Carlos’, ‘Triumph’, ‘Summit’) to indaziflam herbicide. Treatments included indaziflam (0, 50, 73 g ai ha–1) or flumioxazin (213 g ai ha–1) applied alone in April, and sequential applications of indaziflam (36, 50, 73 g ai ha–1) or flumioxazin (213 g ai ha–1) applied in April followed by the same rate applied in June. No crop injury was observed across locations. Muscadine yield was not affected by herbicide treatments. Yield of ‘Sunbelt’ grape increased with sequential applications of indaziflam at 73 g ha–1 when compared to a single application of indaziflam at 50 g ha–1 or flumioxazin at 213 g ha–1 in 2015. Sequential applications of flumioxazin at 213 g ha–1 reduced ‘Sunbelt’ yield compared to a single application of indaziflam at 73 g ha–1 in 2016. Trunk cross-sectional area was unaffected by herbicide treatments. Fruit quality (soluble solids concentration, titratable acidity, and pH) for muscadine and bunch grape was not affected by herbicide treatments. Indaziflam was safe to use at registered rates and could be integrated into weed management programs for southern US vineyards.

Abstract This test was conducted at the Macon Ridge location of the Northeast Research Station. Cotton was planted 12 Jun in plots consisting of 4 rows (40 inch centers) X 50 ft. Treatments were arranged in a RCB design, replicated 4 times. Applications were made with a high clearance sprayer calibrated to deliver 6 gpa through Teejet TX-8 hollow cone nozzles (2/row) at 46 psi. Insecticides were applied on 8, 11, 14, 18 Aug and 11 Sep. Treatments were evaluated by examining 50 flower buds (squares) per plot for evidence of BW/TBW damage. The plots were mechanically harvested on 16 Oct to determine seedcotton yields. The test area was irrigated by an overhead sprinkler “as needed” during the season, but not within 48 h of treatment applications. Rainfall was not a factor influencing treatment efficacy in this test. Data were analyzed with ANOVA, and means were separated according to DMRT.

Abstract The efficacy of selected insecticides was evaluated against BW/TBW at the Macon Ridge location of the Northeast Research Station. Cotton seed was planted 12 Jun in plots consisting of 4 rows (40 inch centers) X 50 ft. Treatments were arranged in a RCB design and replicated 4 times. Applications were made with a high clearance sprayer calibrated to deliver 6 gpa through Teejet TX-8 hollow cone nozzles (2/row) at 46 psi. Insecticides were applied on 8, 11, 14, 18 Aug and 11 Sep. Treatments were evaluated by examining 50 flower buds (squares) per plot on 11, 14, 22 Aug for evidence of BW/TBW and boll weevil damage. Data reported for boll weevil represent a mean across all sample dates. The plots were mechanically harvested on 16 Oct to determine seed cotton yields. The test area was irrigated by an overhead sprinkler “as needed” during the season, but not within 48 h of treatment applications. Rainfall did not influence the effects of these treatments. Data were analyzed with ANOVA, and means were separated according to DMRT.
