Direct Insect Pests of Apples and Peaches in NC • San Jose Scale • Plum Curculio • Stink Bugs • Oriental Fruit Moth • Tufted Apple Bud Moth • Codling Moth • Comstock Mealybug • Apple Maggot
Attributes of Insect Phenology Models in Tree Fruits • Temperature-driven • Models predict biological events important in management • Adult emergence, egg hatch, etc. • Predominately used to optimize • Insecticide use • Scouting resources
Factors Contributing to Use of Phenology Models by Grower Community • Host range and mobility of pest • Common vs. sporadic pest • Consequences of over-spraying • Cost, resistance development • Availability, efficiency and ease of monitoring tools • Simplicity of outputs

Codling Moth Degree-Day Model • Riedl et al. 1976. Can. Entomol. • Predicts percentage of adult emergence and egg hatch of first and second generations. • Degree-day accumulations begin at biofix, defined as first emergence of male moth. • In practice, first sustained capture of male moth in pheromone trap is biofix. • Insecticide applications are recommended at initial egg hatch.

Developmental Rate of Insecticide-Resistant Codling Moth Populations is Slower than Susceptible Populations • E. Lue. 2005. Trade-offs between insecticide resistance and development time in codling moth. http://socrates.berkeley.edu/~es196/projects/2005final/Lue.pdf • Development from egg-adult was 10% greater for a Guthion-resistant resistant compared to a susceptible codling moth population • Boivin, T., J. Chadoeuf, J.C. Bouvier, D. Beslay, and B. Saupanor. 2005. Modeling the interaction between phenology and insecticide resistance genes in the codling moth, Cydia pomonella. Pest Manag. Sci. 61: 53-67. • Pheromone trapping studies validated a model that predicted delayed emergence of insecticide resistant codling moth, and segregation of susceptible and resistant individuals increased with the frequency of resistance.
