Most horticultural crops are attacked by more than one insect pest. As broad-spectrum chemical control options are becoming increasingly restricted, there is a need to develop novel control methods. Semiochemical attrac- tants are available for three important horticultural pests, strawberry blossom weevil, Anthonomus rubi Herbst (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), European tarnished plant bug, Lygus rugulipennis Poppius (Hemiptera: Miridae) and raspberry beetle, Byturus tomentosus deGeer (Coleoptera: Byturidae). Traps targeting more than one pest species would be more practical and economical for both monitoring and mass trapping than traps for single-species. In this study we aimed to (1) improve the effectiveness of existing traps for insect pests in strawberry and raspberry crops by increasing catches of each species, and (2) test if attractants for two unrelated pest species could be combined to capture both in the same trap without decreasing the total catches. Field tests were carried out in four European countries and different combinations of semiochemicals were compared. A volatile from straw- berry flowers, 1,4 dimethoxybenzene (DMB), increased the attractiveness of the aggregation pheromone to both sexes of A. rubi. The host-plant volatile, phenylacetaldehyde (PAA), increased the attraction of female L. rugu- lipennis to the sex pheromone, and, in strawberry, there was some evidence that adding DMB increased catches further. Traps baited with the aggregation pheromone of A. rubi, DMB, the sex pheromone of L. rugulipennis and PAA attracted both target species to the same trap with no significant difference in catches compared to those single-species traps. In raspberry, catches in traps baited with a combination of A. rubi aggregation pheromone, DMB and the commercially available lure for B. tomentosus, based on raspberry flower volatiles, were similar to those in single-species traps. In both crops the efficiency of the traps still needs improvement, but the multi- species traps are adequate for monitoring and should not lead to confusion for the user as the target species are easy to distinguish from each other.

Thrips setosus er en polyfag trips med opprinnelse i Øst-Asia. Arten ble første gang påvist i Europa i 2014. Da ble tripsen påvist hos en produsent av hortensia i Nederland, og påfølgende undersøkelser konkluderte med at tripsen allerede var etablert i flere områder. De siste årene har T. setosus spredt seg til England, Tyskland, Frankrike og Kroatia. Arten ble satt på EPPO Alert list i 2014, og EPPO anbefaler at det blir satt i verk tiltak for å stanse videre spredning.......

Different seed lots of Pinus spp. cultivated within South Africa were screened for the presence or absence of seed-borne fungi according to modified ISTA (International Seed Testing Association) prescribed protocols. Numerous (454 isolates) fungi were successfully isolated, purified and stored using agar slants and cryopreservation. Sydowia polyspora was isolated from six different seed lots from three Pinus species (P. greggii (South), P. elliottii and P. taeda) and was morphologically and molecularly identified. Koch’s postulates was fulfilled by inoculating one year old seedlings (wounded and unwounded) with a spore suspension (107 ml-1) obtained from 30 day old pure cultures grown on PDA. Inoculated and uninoculated control seedlings were incubated in a greenhouse at 220C until symptom development. Sydowia polyspora was re-isolated from symptomatic needles with both wounded and unwounded needles showing characteristic symptoms. No symptoms were apparent on the control seedlings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the fungus being isolated and recorded within the country. Further investigations will look at the prevalence, pathogenicity and characterization of the fungus within South Africa.
