This paper implies current and economically significant diseases and pests of an apple and pear, i.e. problems of integral protection of these species of fruits in our country. Measures for their prevention are recommended regarding an adequate period. Special consideration is given to the diseases such as Venturia pyrina, Venturia inaequalis, Monilinia fructigena, Podosphaera leucotricha and Chondrostereum purpureum, as well as to pests such as Cydia pomonella, Cacopsylla pyri, Cacopsilla pyrisuga, Eryiophidae, Panonychus ulmi and Aphididae. The demand and importance of mass implementation of the concept of integral production in terms of obtaining biologically more valuable and ecologically safer fruits, i.e. preservation of the environment and health have been implied.

Knowledge of the role of ants in many agroecosystems is relatively scarce, and in temperate regions the possibility to exploit ants as biocontrol agents for crop protection is still largely unexplored. Drawing inspiration from mutualistic ant–plant relationships mediated by extrafloral nectaries (EFNs), we tested the use of artificial nectaries (ANs) in order to increase ant activity on pear trees and to evaluate the effects on the arthropods, plant health and fruit production. While EFNs secrete a complex solution mainly composed of sugars and amino acids, ANs were filled with water and sucrose only. The results suggest that ANs can be used as manipulative instruments to increase ant activity over long periods of time. High ant activity was significantly linked to lower incidence of the pathogen fungus Venturia pyrina (pear scab) on pear leaves, and of the presence of Cydia pomonella (codling moth) caterpillars on pear fruit production. These results further encourage exploring underrated possibilities in the development of new tools for conservation biological control (CBC).

AbstractEcological studies, undertaken to determine the fluctuations of phytophagous mites and predators in apple orchards, were conducted in 1955, 1956, and 1957 at Rougemont, Que., in two plots sprayed only with fungicides for the control of apple scab, Venturia inaequalis (Cke) Wint., and in a third one sprayed, in addition to fungicides, with all insecticides needed for the control of destructive insects. Phytophagous mites were more numerous in the plot sprayed with insecticides than in plots sprayed only with fungicides, and densities of the mites in the latter plots were inversely proportional to densities of predators. A similar relationship existed in the insecticide plot between the amount of chemicals used and numbers of predators present. The principal mite predators were Typhlodromus rhenanus (Oudms.), most effective against the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, and Mediolata mali (Ewing), most effective against the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch).

Abstract Though profitable crop production can be more simply achieved by using synthetic pesticides, the research of alternative plant protection solutions is necessary. The effect of the volatile oils of cinnamon, thyme, and a copper ingredient fertilizer were tested for their activity against apple scab and powdery mildew in apple orchards in 2014 and 2017. Oils applied alone or in combination were effective against apple scab in 2014 and in 2017 and against powdery mildew on leaves in 2017. The copper ingredient fertilizer product improved the efficacy of the oils. The results of these trials show that the tested volatile oils are suitable candidates for further research and for the development of organic fungicides against the diseases of apple.

The studies were carried out at the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Organization “Federal Horticultural Center for Breeding, Agrotechnology and Nursery” (FSBSI FRCHBAN) in 1995-2020. The aim of the research was to clarify the species composition, bioecology, and the characteristics of harmfulness of the main phytophages of apple trees in the Central Region of the Non-Black Earth Zone of Russia under climate change conditions. Route surveys were carried out in 5 regions of this zone - Bryansk, Kaluga, Moscow, Ryazan, Tula. When studying the bioecological features of the development and dynamics of summer of the codling moth and corrosive arboretum, along with other methods, pheromone traps were used. Trapping belts (sticky and corrugated paper) were used to signal the exit of the apple blossom beetle from wintering places, as well as the method of shaking off in the morning, at a temperature of no higher than 10˚С. The count of four-legged microscopic mites in the early spring period was carried out before the leaves blooming by the method of selecting the tops of annual growths up to 10 cm long, at 10 counting sites (to view the opening buds). During the growing season, 10 leaves were sampled (4 ... 5th leaves from the top of the shoot), at each registration area. The analysis of microscopic objects on the selected samples was carried out using an MBS-10 stereoscopic microscope. In the research area, new dangerous invasive apple phytophages were identified: corrosive arboreal tree Zeuzera pyrina L. (Lepidoptera: Cossidae), apple rusty mite Aculus schlechtendali Nalepa (Acariformes: Eriophyidae), apple felt mite Phyllocmespates malinus (Acariformes: Eriophyidae). The bioecology and harmfulness of autochthonous phytophages have changed significantly. The apple moth Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) gives up to two generations, and the summer lasts up to 132 days. Red (Panonychus ulmi Koch. (Acariformes: Tetranychidae)) and brown (Bryobia redikorzevi Reck (Acariformes: Bryobiidae)) fruit mites, depending on weather conditions, develop in 4 ... 5 generations a year, common spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch. (Acariformes: Tetranychidae)) at 7. The prevalence of ticks reaches 100%, and the degree of damage to plants by them is up to 3-4 points. Damage to apple flowers by the weevil Anthonomus pomorum L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) reaches 60 ... 85%, the colonization of leaves and shoots by the red-gall aphid Dysaphis devecta Walk. (Homoptera: Aphididae) 35 ... 45%, fruit loss from apple sawfly Haplocampa testudinea Klug. (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) 15%

This study presents the results of a multiple-year evaluation (1991-1996; 2005-2007) of susceptibility of more than 100 apple cultivars to Venturia inaequalis, Podosphaera leucotricha and Erwinia amylovora under agroecological conditions existing in Serbia. Some of the most popular cultivars were found highly susceptible to V. inaequalis (Cripps Pink, Mutsu, Gloster 69, Wellspur); while Golden Delicious, Richared, Gala, Cacanska pozna, Cadel and Jonagold were susceptible; Idared, Granny Smith and Jonathan moderately susceptible; Lord Lamburne and London Pepping, as well as several autochthonous cultivars were moderately resistant; and a group of resistant cultivars included Prima, Priscilla, Williams Pride, Dayton, Enterprise, Gold Rush, Golden Orange, many of the Re-cultivars (Germany), as well as Baujade, Selena, Duk?t, Produkta, Topaz, some older cvs. (Worcester Pearmain, Merton Worcester, James Grieve, Akane, Astilish, Astrachan Red and Discovery), some Co-op selections (USA) and NS hybrids (Serbia). Regarding powdery mildew, Idared and Jonathan were highly susceptible; Gala, Akane, Jonagold, Priscilla, Mutsu, Cacanska pozna, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Cadel and GoldRush were susceptible; Wellspur, Astrachan Red, Richared, Jonadel, Dayton and several autochthonous cultivars were moderately susceptible; Lord Lamburne, Astlisch, Prima, Champagne Reinette, Discovery and many autochthonous cultivars were moderately resistant; while most Re-cvs. (Germany), several cultivars from the Czech Republic, some selections from the USA and UK and most NS hybrids (Serbia) were resistant. Also, some cultivars showed variable susceptibility depending on location (Williams Pride, Gloster 69, Baujade and Produkta). E. amylovora was observed only in 2007 and at relatively low intensity (up to 12% infection). The highest disease severity was observed on cv. Elstar, then Granny Smith, Idared and Jonagored; while the lowest was found on Red Chief and Hapke apple trees.
