Abstract:
Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin is a fungus with broad spectrum insecticidal activity. As a biological control agent used against Colorado potato beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)), this fungus has performed erratically in various field studies. This inconsistent performance has been attributed to formulation problems, UV sensitivity, and humidity. In a multi-site test, B. bassiana controlled Colorado potato beetle larvae in both Poland and the Czech Republic, but not in Maryland. Control was measured by reduction in populations of beetle larvae. One of the major differences among these sites was temperature. In Poland, the mean temperature ranged from 5°C to 23°C; in the Czech Republic the average temperature ranged from 6.7°C to 18.7°C; and in Maryland, temperatures at time of application exceeded 45°C at canopy level. This led us to examine B. bassiana growth in vitro.While B. bassiana grew in the laboratory from 16 to 30°C, the B. bassiana from a formulated product (Mycotrol™, Mycotech, Butte, MT) did not germinate at temperatures above 37°C. Germination and subsequent development of this entomopathogenic fungi are critical factors in the infection and control of the Colorado potato beetle. As a consequence of the inability to germinate at high temperatures, B. bassiana would not be expected to effectively control pest insects in climates with hot summers. This fungus, however, may be suitable for insect control in early spring or in cool temperature climates during the growing season.

Abstract:
The Colorado potato beetle is a major worldwide pest of potato and several other solanaceous plants. Insecticidal resistance is a serious problem in the northeastern and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States and a developing problem in other potato production areas of the United States and Canada (Forgash 1985; Johnson and Sandvol 1986; Boiteau et al. 1987). In the northwestern United States, insecticides applied to control the green peach aphid also control Colorado potato beetle, but these insecticides are likely to become ineffective due to the development of resistance or unavailable because of restricted use and environmental concerns. Biologically based management strategies are needed to reduce dependency on insecticides; these strategies require new basic knowledge including understanding prolonged diapause in populations of the Colorado potato beetle. Krysan et al. (1986) established that the occurrence of prolonged or repeated diapause can influence management strategies for insects, especially with respect to crop rotation.

Abstract:
A beige elytral mutant of the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), has been isolated for the first time. The inheritance of the beige mutation is controlled by two dominant genes, both of which are required for the expression of the color. The mutation could be maintained at a low rate in the wild population by the presence of one of the two genes. The lower biological fitness of the beige mutant, characterized by a longer mean total development time and lower fertility, is demonstrated. The data suggest that the melanization of markings on different areas of the body of the Colorado potato beetle are under the control of different genes. This study suggests that the previous presumption that other elytral anomalies were nongenetic in origin may be in question.

AbstractWe evaluated the effects of free-range chickens and geese on insect pests and weeds in an experimental, nonchemical agroecosystem consisting of an apple orchard with intercropped potatoes. The objective was to assess the potential of these domestic bird species as biological control agents. Four insect pests were studied: plum curculio, apple maggot, Japanese beetle, and Colorado potato beetle. Chickens fed on several potential crop pests, including Japanese beetle. Although Japanese beetles were less abundant on apple trees when chickens were present, the proportion of damaged fruit was not reduced. Furthermore, chickens did not affect weed abundance or crop productivity. In contrast, geese were effective weeders. Their activities reduced weed abundance and increased potato plant growth and yields compared with a minimally weeded control. In addition, the activities of geese indirectly reduced apple fruit damage by plum curculio and increased the proportion of pest-free fruit, possibly because removal of vegetation by the geese reduced humidity at the soil surface and therefore reduced the activity of plum curculio.

Abstract:
The study aimed to test a multifunctional technology for potatoes’ biological protection using Phytop 26.82 against black scurf (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn) and Colorado potato beetle in Western Siberia. The experiment was conducted with the medium-maturing variety “Kemerovchanin.” The product tested was Phytop 26.82. The research methodology was carried out both in laboratory conditions and in the field. In the laboratory, the biological product was used on potato leaves and Colorado potato beetle larvae. The authors revealed the degree of influence of the natural effect Phytop 26.82 on the Colorado potato beetle’s larvae of different ages. The larvae were counted on the 5th, 7th, and 10th days of the experiment. In the field, the authors also revealed the level of the immunogenic effect of the bioagent Phytop 26.82 on the Rhizoctonia stem canker (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn). The morphological parameters of the Kemerovchanin potato variety were observed during the course of this study. The results of the study showed that the microbial mixture Phytop 26.82 made it possible to increase the biomass of plants by 1.5–1.8 times due to an increase in the length of the aerial part (by 10%), the number of stems (1.2–1.7 times), and the number of stolons (1.5–1.6 times) compared to control. Under the bioagent, Phytop 26.82, Rhizoctonia stem canker on the stems decreased by 45% overall counting weeks. The effectiveness of the bioagent Phytop 26.82 reached 100% in two aspects. One of them was the effectiveness of a biological product in the Colorado potato beetle’s obliteration (Leptinotarsa decemlineata). The second direction of significance was the fight against the black scurf. The use of a mixture of bioagents of the Phytop 26.82 preparation can simultaneously have an insecticidal, fungicidal, and growth-stimulating effect on potatoes.

Abstract:
Highlights A pneumatic prototype machine to control the Colorado potato beetle (CPBs) was successfully designed, built, and tested in a potato field under real conditions. The pneumatic prototype machine is effective in dislodging CPB larvae from potato plants. ABSTRACT . The Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is a real threat to potato crops when left uncontrolled. This insect pest is hard to control because it develops resistance to most chemical insecticides. To date, several alternatives including chemical, biological, and physical methods have been used to control CPB populations but have proven to be ineffective on their own. So far, the most reliable method at short and medium scales has been the use of chemicals, i.e., spraying insecticides onto potato plants at regular intervals throughout the life cycle of the CPB. However, the overuse of chemicals due to the resistance developed by the CPB can lead to serious health and environmental problems. The use of a pneumatic method to control the CPB seems to be a viable alternative compared to the use of chemicals. For this purpose, this research focused on engineering a pneumatic control device that could allow farmers to reduce their reliance on chemical insecticides. A pneumatic prototype machine using positive air pressure to dislodge CPBs from potato plant foliage was designed and built at the Department of Soils and Agri-Food Engineering of Université Laval. This prototype was tested in the field using three airflow velocities (31, 35, and 38 m/s) and two travel speeds (5 and 6 km/h). The results indicated that the airflow velocity and travel speed have no significant impact on dislodging the CPB (p = 0.0548 and 0.7033, respectively). However, the interaction between airflow velocities and the development stages of the CPB had a significant effect on dislodging the CPB (p = 0.0194). Overall, the most adequate airflow velocity that resulted in removing most of the CPB larvae from potato leaves was 35 m/s. Obtained results indicate that this pneumatic prototype machine could be efficiently used to control the CPB. However, extensive testing is required to confirm obtained results and investigate the effects of the pneumatic control on both the potato plant growth and the yield compared to other control means.

Abstract:
Predators and parasitoids used for biological control must possess good dispersal potential in order to ensure spatially uniform and cost-effective control. The rate of dispersal of Perillus bioculatus (F.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), a predator of the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), was measured following central release in 0.025-ha potato plots. Factors influencing predator dispersal were also studied under controlled conditions in plant growth chambers. Temperature, predator size as affected by instar, and physiological age with respect to the completion of feeding during the intermolt stage were found to be significant factors. Predator density was also evaluated because of the strong tendency for this species to aggregate, thereby influencing dispersal. Results can be used to develop predictive models for inundative releases of P. bioculatus.

Abstract:
Abstract Continued failure of most insecticides for control of CPB in the Anoka Sand Plains growing area stimulated further comparisons of biologicals, inorganics, and synthetic materials for CPB management. Soils are sands at this location. Plots were established in an irrigated commercial potato field. The individual plot consisted of 4—25 ft rows with a row width of 3 ft. Treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design and were replicated 4 times. The grower treated all of the field, including the plots, with Thiodan and Asana XL at 1.0 lb and 0.5 lb Al/acre respectively on 8 Jul and 16 Jul. Plot treatments were applied on 25 Jun, 6 and 19 Jul using a CO2 hand sprayer with about 20 gals total material/acre and 40 psi pressure. Larval ratings and defoliation estimates were taken on 6 and 19 Jul. Vines were killed on 3 Aug and yields collected on 18 Aug. The center 2 rows of each plot were harvested for yield.

Abstract:
A three-year (1998-2000) field and laboratory study conducted in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada analyzed and quantified the dispersal of adult Colorado potato beetles within and between conventional and transgenic potato plots established according to the high-dose/refuge strategy. More specifically, the study addressed the following four predictions: (1) Adult Colorado potato beetle abundance or flight activity in transgenic potato fields is positively correlated to the abundance or flight activity in the immediately adjacent refuge field. (2) Colorado potato beetle intraspecific competition on potato plants will increase the flight take-off frequency of adult CPB; tolerating relatively high numbers of CPB egg masses or larvae or a high level of CPB defoliation on potato plants in the refuge could therefore be considered to increase the movement of beetles from the refuge to the transgenic field. (3) CPB flight take-off frequency will be higher on potato plants at the bloom than at the vegetative stage; planting of the non transgenic potato crop in the refuge earlier than the Bt transgenic potato crop in the main field could therefore be considered to increase movement of the Colorado potato beetles from the refuge to the transgenic field. (4) The aggregated distribution of CPB populations in the potato crop is caused by the presence of mating pairs; strategies changing the distribution of males and females in the refuge field could therefore be considered to increase dispersal from the refuge to the main crop field.
Population monitoring using plant counts, flight interception traps, flight landing traps and pitfall traps established that a transient population of adult CPB is present in the transgenic potato fields throughout the crop season and that the abundance of the beetle is higher than that required by the high dose/refuge strategy models. Furthermore results showed that the beetles invading the transgenic field population originate as much from the surrounding fields of conventional cultivars as from the adjacent refuges. It would therefore be possible to relax existing requirements for the refuge to be located immediately adjacent to the transgenic crop.
Like most insects, the adult CPB populations are aggregated and can be fitted to a negative binomial distribution over the crop season. This study revealed that the distribution results from the presence of mating pairs for the overwintered population and from the clumped pupation for the non breeding summer population. The activity of the males in search of females is at least partly responsible for the higher dispersal activity observed with the overwintered than with the summer populations. The comparatively low level of dispersal activity with the summer population could affect the efficacy of the high/dose refuge strategy during the later part of the crop season.
Results of flight chamber tests demonstrated that plant phenology and intraspecific competition have a positive effect on flight take-off frequency. These findings suggest that summer adult dispersal between the refuges and the transgenic crops could be stimulated by manipulating planting dates and the abundance of the different CPB life stages on the plants.
Together, the results of the thesis provide support for some of the premises of the high dose/refuge strategy and offer new information on the CPB dispersal that could be used to further improve its efficacy. Although the transgenic potato (NewLeaf) is not commercially available at this time, the threat of CPB resistance to new products or resistant cultivars under development makes it important to continue the research required by CPB resistance management plans.

Abstract:
Le doryphore de la pomme de terre (DPT), Leptinootarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) est l’insecte ravageur qui cause le plus de dommage aux plants de pommes de terre, de tomate et d’aubergine en se nourrissant de leur feuillage. Le DPT est devenu un phénomène inquiétant vu sa présence dans presque 16 millions de km² répartis à travers l’Amérique du Nord, l’Europe et l’Asie et il continue par sa grande capacité de se propager. Actuellement, les insecticides chimiques représentent le moyen le plus efficace pour lutter contre le DPT. Malheureusement, l’utilisation excessive des produits chimiques pour lutter contre le DPT devient inefficace après quelques années puisque cet insecte nuisible réussit à développer une résistance envers ces produits. Aussi, l’utilisation excessive et incontrôlée des insecticides chimiques est coûteuse pour les producteurs de pommes de terre et pourrait résulter en de sérieux problèmes environnementaux et de santé humaine. Compte tenu de ce qui précède, les chercheurs scientifiques ont redoublé d’efforts pour trouver des alternatives intéressantes aux produits chimiques afin de lutter contre le DPT. Une des alternatives consiste à utiliser le contrôle biologique en procédant à un lâcher massif d’ennemis naturels du DPT. Cette alternative qui ne fait recours à aucun produit chimique est très avantageuse puisqu’elle permet de produire des produits biologiques tout en préservant l’environnement. L’efficacité de cette alternative à contrôler le DPT a été prouvée à petite échelle. Toutefois, le lâcher manuel des insectes prédateurs à grande échelle est inconcevable. Pour remédier à ce problème, quelques récents travaux de recherche ont mis l’emphase sur le lâcher mécanique des prédateurs pour lutter contre les insectes nuisibles. L’objectif de ce travail de recherche était de tester un distributeur mécanique de larves de deuxième, troisième et quatrième stades de Podisus maculiventris dans un champ de pommes de terre. Les résultats obtenus ont démontré que le prototype de distribution mécanique est efficace en ce qui a trait au lâcher de prédateurs dans les parcelles de pommes de terre. Aussi, le contrôle du DPT dans les parcelles de lâcher mécanique est aussi efficace que celui dans les parcelles de lâcher manuel et ce par comparaison aux parcelles témoins sans aucun contrôle.
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) is a pest insect that can cause real damage to potato, tomato, and eggplant crops by consuming their leaves if left uncontrolled. The CPB is becoming an alarming phenomenon because of its presence in about 16 million km² spread across North America, Europe, and Asia, and it is still spreading. Currently, chemical insecticides are the most effective mean to control the CPB. Unfortunately, the exclusive use of chemicals to control the CPB becomes ineffective after few years because this pest insect succeeds to develop resistance to such chemicals. Also, excessive and uncontrolled use of chemical insecticides is costly for potato growers and could lead to serious human health and environmental problems. Therefore, scientists have been trying to find interesting alternatives to control the CPB. One of these alternatives consists of using the biological control by massive release of natural enemies of the CPB. This chemical free alternative has several significant advantages as it allows producing organic food while preserving the environment. The effectiveness of this alternative in controlling CPB populations has been proven at small scale. However, hand release of predator insects at large scale is unconceivable. To remedy to this problem, some recent studies carried out in the last few years have focused on the mechanical release of predators to control pest insects. The objective of this research study was to test a mechanical distributor of second, third, and forth-instar nymphs of Podisus maculiventris in a potato field. Obtained results showed that the mechanical release system is efficient in releasing predators in potato plots. Also, the control of CPB in the mechanical release plots is as efficient as that in the manual release plots compared the check plots with no control.

Abstract:
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is the most devastating foliage-feeding pest of potatoes in the United States. Potential biological control agents include the nematodes Heterorhabditis marelatus Liu & Berry and Steinernema riobrave Cabanillas, Poinar & Raulston, which provided nearly 100% CPB control in previous laboratory trials. In the present study, laboratory assays tested survival and infection by the two species under the soil temperatures CPB are exposed to, from 4-37°C. H. marelatus survived from 4-31°C, and S. riobrave from 4-37°C. Both species infected and developed in waxworm hosts from 13-31°C, but H. marelatus rarely infected hosts above 25°C, and S. riobrave rarely infected hosts below 19°C. H. marelatus infected an average of 5.8% of hosts from 13- 31°C, whereas S. riobrave infected 1.4%. Although H. marelatus could not survive at temperatures as high as S. riobrave. H. marelatus infected more hosts so is preferable for use in CPB control. Heterorhabditis marelatus rarely reproduced in CPB. Preliminary laboratory trials suggested the addition of nitrogen to CPB host plants improved nematode reproduction. Field studies testing nitrogen fertilizer effects on nematode reproduction in CPB indicated that increasing nitrogen from 226 kg/ha to 678 kg/ha produced 25% higher foliar levels of the alkaloids solanine and chaconine. However, the increased alkaloids did not affect nematode infection of, nor reproduction in, CPB prepupae. Nematodes applied to field plot soil at 50 infective juveniles/cm² reduced adult CPB by 50%, and increased numbers of dead prepupae in soil samples up to five times more than in non-nematode plots. Laboratory studies of H. marelatus and its symbiotic bacteria in CPB hemolymph indicated that immune responses did not limit nematode reproduction. A 58kD CPB hemolymph protein apparently caused the symbiotic bacteria to switch to the secondary form, which does not produce antibiotics and enzymes necessary for nematode growth and reproduction. Despite heat denaturation of the protein, the nematodes did not reproduce unless lipids were added to the hemolymph. Therefore, while H. marelatus may provide high levels of CPB control, nutritional constraints on the nematode and its bacteria inhibit reproduction in CPB and limit long-term multi-generation control.

Abstract:
The chapter deals with the role of potatoes bred at the Imperial Biological Institute (Biologische Reichsanstalt - BRA) in the Nazi Battle of Production. It highlights the importance of research at the BRA for the seed cleansing of the Nazi years, with thousands of varieties eliminated from German fields, enforced by the Imperial Food Estate (Reichsnährstand - RNS), the institutional form of the ideology of Blood and Soil and the mammoth Nazi organization responsible for organizing the peasant world. The research dynamics at the BRA aimed at coping with the multiple pests afflicting German potato fields (wart, Colorado beetle, late blight, viruses) is put in relation with the growing infrastructure of the RNS, in an exemplary case of co-production of science and the state: each new experimental system at the BRA corresponded to an expansion of the power and reach of the RNS
