Popis: | Systemic insecticides were evaluated for effect on insect control, plant stand, early fruiting, and yield of cotton in 1966 and 1967. Granular formulations of disulfoton, phorate, Allied Chemical GC-6506 (dimethyl p -(methylthio) phenyl phosphate), Hercules 13462 ( O,O -dimethyl phosphorodithioate S -ester with N -(1-mercaptoethyl) succinimide), Niagara NIA-10242 (2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl methylcarbamate), and Union Carbide UC-21149 (2-methyl-2-(methylthio) propionaldehyde O -(methylcarbamoyl) oxime) applied with the seed at planting gave good initial control of tobacco thrips, Frankliniella fusca (Hinds); UC-21149 gave the best residual control. Seed treated with Azodrin® (3-hydroxy- N -methyl- cis -crotonamide dimethyl phosphate), disulfoton, methomyl, Hercules 13462, and NIA-10242 gave fair to good initial control of thrips. Populations of other insect species did not become a problem. The treatments reduced stands in some tests but not in others. The control of thrips that was achieved with the systemic insecticides resulted in earlier fruiting of plants in 3 of the 6 tests, but yields increased as a result in only 1 test. |
