Brill, N. L., Sorenson, C. E., & Abney, M. R. (2016, July). JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGICAL SCIENCE, Vol. 51, pp. 252–255.

By: N. Brill n, C. Sorenson n & M. Abney n

author keywords: white grubs; cold temperature; freeze susceptibility
TL;DR: Temperature is a density-independent abiotic mortality factor, although the response of insects to cold temperature varies between and within species (Bale 1989; Chapman 1998). (via Semantic Scholar)

2011 journal article

Relative Susceptibility of Two Sweetpotato Varieties to Storage Root Damage by Sweetpotato Flea Beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) and Wireworm (Coleoptera: Elateridae)

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 104(1), 143–148.

By: M. Abney n & G. Kennedy n 

author keywords: host plant resistance; sweetpotato; sweetpotato flea beetle; wireworm
MeSH headings : Animals; Coleoptera / physiology; Host-Parasite Interactions; Ipomoea batatas / parasitology; Larva / physiology; Plant Tubers / parasitology; Species Specificity
TL;DR: The severity of wireworm damage as measured by the size of feeding scars may be less in Covington than Beauregard, and there was no clear evidence of varietal effect on the incidence of wireworms in the study. (via Semantic Scholar)

2010 journal article

Influence of Preceding Crop on Wireworm (Coleoptera: Elateridae) Abundance in the Coastal Plain of North Carolina

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 103(6), 2087–2093.

By: R. Willis*, M. Abney*, G. Holmes*, J. Schultheis* & G. Kennedy

author keywords: wireworm; crop rotation; Conoderus spp.; Melanotus communis
MeSH headings : Animals; Coleoptera / physiology; Crops, Agricultural / parasitology; Host Specificity; Ipomoea batatas / parasitology; Larva / physiology; North Carolina; Population Density; Soil / parasitology
TL;DR: Three studies were conducted to determine the effect of preceding crop on wireworm abundance in the coastal plain of North Carolina, and C. vespertinus was the most abundant species, and the mean total number of wireworms per bait was highest following corn. (via Semantic Scholar)

2010 journal article

Survey of Wireworms (Coleoptera: Elateridae) in North Carolina Sweetpotato Fields and Seasonal Abundance of Conoderus vespertinus

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 103(4), 1268–1276.

By: R. Willis*, M. Abney* & G. Kennedy* 

author keywords: wireworm; tobacco wireworm; Conoderus vespertinus; sweetpotato
MeSH headings : Animals; Coleoptera / classification; Coleoptera / physiology; Ipomoea batatas; Larva / classification; Larva / physiology; North Carolina; Seasons; Time Factors
TL;DR: Adult C. vespertinus were most abundant in July, and larvae were smaller and more abundant after 15 July than earlier in the season, indicating an early summer generation turnover and oviposition in fields planted to sweetpotato. (via Semantic Scholar)

2008 journal article

Influence of soil temperature, rainfall, and planting and harvest dates on Chaetocnema confinis (Coleoptera : Chrysomelidae) damage to sweetpotato roots

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 101(4), 1238–1243.

By: P. Jasrotia  n, M. Abney n, N. Neerdaels n & G. Kennedy n 

author keywords: sweetpotato; Chaetocnema confinis; planting date; harvest date; soil temperature
TL;DR: Understanding the effects of planting/harvesting and weather factors on flea beetle damage will be useful in predicting the time when the sweetpotato crop is at greater risk from high levels of damage by C. confinis. (via Semantic Scholar)

Limitations of stable carbon isotope analysis for determining natal host origins of tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens

ENTOMOLOGIA EXPERIMENTALIS ET APPLICATA, 126(1), 46–52.

By: M. Abney n, C. Sorenson n, F. Gould n  & J. Bradley n

author keywords: Lepidoptera; Noctuidae; host plant utilization; isotope ratio mass spectrometry; biological markers
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that within the range of C3 host plants tested, carbon isotope signatures are not sufficiently unique to enable a reliable determination of natal origin of feral tobacco budworm with current IRMS technology. (via Semantic Scholar)

Rise and fall of cotton aphid (Hemiptera : Aphididae) populations in southeastern cotton production systems

JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 101(1), 23–35.

By: M. Abney*, J. Ruberson *, G. Herzog*, T. Kring*, D. Steinkraus* & P. Roberts*

author keywords: Aphis gossypii; Neozygites fresenii; biological control; epizootics
TL;DR: Arthropod natural enemies were most abundant after epizootics and may have suppressed aphid populations late in the season, and Seed cotton yield, and lint quality were not affected by aphicide applications in any year of the study. (via Semantic Scholar)
