Popis: | For this study we collected eight years (2006–2013) of data on Chongming Eco-island in China, analyzing the effects of large-scale agriculture on the occurrence of the rice leaf roller, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis Guenee, a dominant foliage feeder in rice ecosystems. We found that the peak of the C . medinalis population was obvious in 2006, 2007 and 2009, with more than 400 adult C . medinalis trapped in a single insecticidal lamp each day and more than 500 individuals per 66.7 m 2 in paddy field. We found a significantly positive correlation between the number of adult C . medinalis trapped in the lamp and the number of moths observed in the paddy field and these two monitoring indicators of C . medinalis were both significantly influenced by average daily temperature. Our study suggests that global warming might promote the occurrence of C . medinalis in large-scale agriculture in the future. |
