Non GMO soybean in IL
Very small amount, only 7%
Chuckov program
Farmers put money in, funds research on soybeans
Soy aphids
Native to Asia, spread quickly to northern US/southern Canada
When should soy be treated? What with?
Over 250 aphids per plant, foliar insecticide
Biological control on soy aphids
Parasitic wasps, efficacy unknown
Antixenosis
Form of host plant resistance: Inability for pest to find and feed on plant
Antibiosis
Form of host plant resistance: Inability for pest to grow/reproduce while feeding on plant
Tolerance
Form of host plant resistance: ability of plant to thrive despite feeding
Screening for soy aphid resistance
Check germ plasm
Which cultivars have soy aphid resistance?
Ancestral lines
Antibiosis soy host plant resistance
Not useful in IL, resistance gene needs to be bred into Midwest adapted soy backgrounds, the genes aren't known
Marker-assisted selection
Markers used to select aphid resistance genes Rag1/Rag2 in soy
IL aphids
Susceptible to both resistance genes
Ohio aphids
Resistant to Rag1 only
Indiana aphids
Resistant to both host plant resistance genes
Value continuum per plant (low to high)
Forests, forage crops, field crops, veggies, orchard crops
Why are orchard crops highest value continuum?
Economic AND aesthetic injury level
Problem in forest IPM?
Need large-scale control because very large
Who discovered pheromone of silk moth?
Adolf Butenandt
Silk moth pheromone
Bombykol
Semiochemicals
How forest pests are often controlled
Intraspecific semiochemicals
Pheromones: releaser or primer
Releaser semiochemicals
Changes in behavior: alarm, sexual, aggregation, marking, recruitment, ID
Primer semiochemicals
Development: Sexual maturiation, caste determination, dev, physiological state
Interspecific semiochemicals
Kairomone, Allomone
Kairomone
Benefits receiver to detriment of sender: Pheromones, allomones, toxins, metabolites, floral scents
Allomone
Benefits sender: Defense secretions, repellants, floral scents, lures
Human pheromones
Primers not releaser
Advantages of chemical signals
Independent of light, travel around obstacles, persists in time, energy-efficient, broad range of transmission
Disadvantages of chemical signals
Persistence, slow delivery, difficult to modify signal
Semiochemicals in IPM
Species specific, sustainable, non-toxic, pose no risk to non-targets
What are semiochemicals used to control?
Southern pine beetle, gypsy moth, emerald ash borer
Coffee white stem borer
Coffee pest, annihilate by trapping with pheromone
Gyspy moth control
Manual removal
Gypsy moth caterpillar ID
5 pairs of blue dots followed by 6 pairs of red dots on backs
Gypsy moth problems
Eat everything but leaf midrib, huge groups of eggs laid
Tick diseases
Lyme, RMSF, encephalitis
Sandfly disease
Leishmaniasis
Kissing bug disease
Chagas disease
most important vectors
Mosquitoes, followed by ticks
most prevalent vector-borne disease in US
lyme disease
Black-legged tick life-cycle
1 big blood meal per life stage, 3 different hosts, larvae hatch out disease-free and pick up from host
Management of tick-borne disease
Bait station for deer to apply permethrin, helmeted guineafowl
Fragmented forests' role in lyme disease
white-footed mouse (competent reservoir for lyme disease) does well in fragmented forest
Zooprophylaxis
use cows to deflect mosquito bites from humans since mosquitoes prefer cattle
Biological control of mosquitoes
Wolbachia shortens mosquito life span
Transgenic management of mosquitoes
Use fungus with antimicrobial toxin developed from scorpion venom
Why are disease transmissions in livestock mostly bacterial?
Body port contamination, regurgitation, defecation from vector
Pigeon breast in horses
Spread from CA, makes chest muscles puff up, associated with flies
Strangles in horses
Contagious, lymph nodes swell and pinch of trachea, transmitted by flies
Rhodoccocus in horses
Subtle, difficult to diagnose, internal abscesses, flies pick up from soil
Equine Infectious Anemia
HIV of horses, Tabanids are vector, detect with blood test
Why do vets have to avoid using same needle or castration tool on horses?
Equine Infectious Anemia
Onchocerciasis
Filarial disease, ventral midline, transmitted bu culicoids, cure with Ivermectrin
Habronemiasis
Most in Arabians and grey/light colours, summer sores, fly larvae in wounds
Stable fly
Wide-host blood feeder, attack lower areas of horses
Aural plaques
Fly transmitted, associated with black flies, cause weight loss in cattle/irritation of ears in horses, treat with XXTERRA
Fly bite dermatitis
Appaloosas more susceptible
Bovine lukemia
Horse flies transmit
Equite Hemorrhagic Disease
Culicoid vector, reservoir is whitetail deer/cattle, "smell of death", vaccinate prior to culicoid season
SimpliFly, Equitrol, Solitude IGR
Chitin synthesis inhibitors
Chitin synthesis inhibitor benefits
Low mammalian toxicity, high insect specificity, lasts long
Hornflies and onchecomiasiis
Need treatment for btoh fly and filaria
Horn fly control
Methoprene, feed-through for cattle, adjust to season
