    Notes: Summary Incubation of Heliothis zea (Boddie) eggs on foliage of Lycopersicon hirsutum f. glabratum C.H. Mull (accession PI 134417) results in neonates with elevated levels of tolerance to the toxic effects of PI 134417 foliage attributable to 2-tridecanone found in the glandular trichomes which abound on that foliage. The neonates from such eggs are also shown to have elevated levels of tolerance to the carbamate insecticide carbaryl. Incubation of eggs in an atmosphere containing 2-tridecanone similarly produced elevated levels of tolerance to 2-tridecanone among resulting neonates, indicating that 2-tridecanone is the likely inducing agent and that exposure to 2-tridecanone vapor, which is known to emanate from PI 134417 foliage, is sufficient for induction. Analysis of the cytochrome P-450 content in gut microsomes of fifth instar larvae indicated that exposure of larvae to 2-tridecanone in artificial diet or to PI 134417 foliage resulted in significantly elevated levels of cytochrome P-450 relative to larvae fed diet without 2-tridecanone or foliage of L. esculentum which contains no 2-tridecanone. In addition, removal of the glandular trichomes from PI 134417 foliage eliminated the ability of that foliage to induce elevated levels of cytochrome P-450. These results provide circumstantial evidence that cytochrome P-450 may be involved in the induced tolerance to xenobiotics among neonates from eggs exposed to 2-tridecanone or PI 134417 foliage.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le bénomyl a modifié les populations de Tetranychus urticae Koch en interférant avec son champignon pathogène, Neozygites floridana (Weiser & Muma). Le bénomyl retardait mais prolongeait les pullulations de l'acarien. Peu d'acariens étaient infectés par le champignon quand on utilisait du bénomyl. Les réductions des populations d'acariens traitées avec l'hydroxyde de fentine étaient associées à un haut niveau d'infection par N. floridana. Le bénomyl ne modifiait pas la sporulation de N. floridana mais semblait inhiber la germination des conidies ou la croissance du champignon.
    Notes: Abstract Benomyl affected populations of Tetranychus urticae by interfering with the pathogenic fungus, Neozygites floridana. Benomyl delayed but prolonged spider mite outbreaks. Few mites were infected with the pathogen when benomyl was used. Reductions in mite populations treated with fentin hydroxide were associated with a high incidence of N. floridana infection. Benomyl did not affect sporulation of N. floridana but appeared to inhibit conidial germination or growth of the fungus.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Dans des parcelles de maïs dont les populations d'espèces prédatrices avaient été éliminées par du carbaryl, des populations de T. urticae ont régressé en fonction de la dispersion aérienne des acariens ou d'épizooties provoquées par N. floridana. L'importance relative de ces deux causes varie d'année suivant les conditions écologiques. Le pathogène paraissait la principale cause de déclin des populations quand le temps humide a induit les épizooties par N. floridana avant que le maïs n'ait été largement contaminé par les acariens. Quand le temps sec a permis aux populations d'acariens de se développer sans frein jusqu'à contamination totale du maïs, la dispersion aérienne des acariens était la principale cause de déclin des populations d'acariens. Dans tous les champs où il y avait eu épizootie de N. floridana, des traitements de routine avec le fongicide meneb ont retardé les épizooties et réduit ou retardé l'impact du pathogène sur les populations d'acariens. Pendant toute la période d'étude, le nombre total d'acariens infestés par Neozygites était significativement plus élevé dans les parcelles traitées au maneb que dans les parcelles non traitées, lorsque les épizooties étaient provoquées pendant la période de croissance des populations d'acariens. Quand les épizooties ont été déclenchées pendant la période de déclin des populations d'acariens, un nombre plus faible d'acariens infestés était observé dans les parcelles traitées au maneb que dans les parcelles sans traitement.
    Notes: Abstract In field plots in which populations of predaceous species were suppressed using carbaryl, populations of the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, on field corn declined in association with aerial dispersal of the mites or with epizootics of the entomogenous fungus, Neozygites floridana Weiser & Muma. The relative importance of these two factors varied from year to year depending on environmental conditions. When moist weather conditions induced epizootics of N. floridana before corn plants became heavily infested with mites, the pathogen appeared to be the major factor causing mite population declines. When dry weather conditions allowed mite populations to expand unchecked until corn plants became entirely infested, mite aerial dispersal was the major factor associated with mite population declines. In every field in which there was an epizootic of N. floridana, routine applications of the fungicide maneb delayed epizootics and reduced or delayed the impact of the pathogen on mite populations. The total number of Neozygites-infected mites produced in maneb-treated plots throughout the test period was significantly greater than that in untreated plots when epizootics were initiated during periods of mite population growth. Fewer total infected mites were produced in maneb-treated plots compared to untreated plots when epizootics were initiated during periods of mite population decline.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La tomate sauvage,L. hirsutum f.glabratum C.H. Mull, n0 PI134417, présente des lamelles foliaires qui lui confèrent une résistance au doryphore,L. decemlineata Say et àH. zea Bodie. Cette étude a voulu préciser si ces résistances étaient héritées ensemble dans des populations d'hybrides entre PI 134417 et la tomate cultivée,L. esculentum Mill. Des lignées de plantes présentant une gamme de résistance àH. zea ont été sélectionnées à partir d'une population hyrbide. De même, des lignées de plantes ayant une gamme de résistance àL. decemlineata ont été sélectionnées à partir d'un second groupe d'hybrides. Les réactions des 2 insectes aux 2 groupes de plantes ont été estimées. Les résistances àH. zea et àL. decemlineata n'étaient pas corrélées nettement. Certaines lignées sont résistantes aux 2 espèces, mais d'autres ne sont résistantes qu'à une espèce. Ainsi, les résistances à chacune de ces espèces ont probablement des déterminismes génétiques différents. Différentes composantes mécaniques sont vraisemblablement impliquées dans ces résistances, bien qu'il soit possible qu'au moins quelques facteurs aient un rôle important dans le conditionnement de la résistance. La création de cultivars de tomates avec une résistance liée aux lamelles foliaires sera compliquée par le besoin d'une sélection en fonction des réponses aux 2 espèces..
    Notes: Abstract Segregating populations of hybrids of the insect-resistant wild tomato,Lycopersicon hirsutum f.glabratum, C.H. Mull, PI 134417, and the susceptible tomato cultivar ofL. esculentum Mill, ‘Walter’, were screened by bioassays with the Colorado potato beetle,Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) and tomato fruitwormHeliothis zea (Boddie). Plant lines with a range of levels of resistance toH. zea were selected from one group of hybrids; plants with a range of resistance levels toL. decemlineata, from another group. The response of both insect species to both groups of plants was evaluated. Resistance to each of these species is under separate genetic control and apparently involves distinct mechanistic components, although it remains possible that at least some factors are important in conditioning resistance to both species.

    Notes: Abstract Greenhouse-grown plants of five tomato lines varying in their level of 2-tridecanone-mediated resistance toManduca sexta (L.) andLeptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) were found to adversely affect larvae ofCampoletis sonorensis (Cameron), a larval endoparasitoid ofHeliothis zea (Boddie), in a manner directly related to their level of resistance. The parasitoid larvae, which emerge as fifth instars from their host and construct a cocoon on the foliage of their hosts' host plant, suffered extensive mortality during cocoon spinning on highly resistant foliage. Mortality was greatest (82%) on the highly resistant plants ofLycopersicon hirsutum f.glabratum (accession PI 134417) and an F1 backcross [(L. esculentum × PI 134417) × PI 134417] selection. Mortality was intermediate (40 and 28%, respectively) on backcross selections with moderate and low levels of resistance and least (8%) on susceptibleL. esculentum. Removal of the glandular trichomes, which contain 2-tridecanone in their tips, from the foliage eliminated differences in parasitoid mortality among plant lines. Bioassays of 2-tridecanone indicated that it is acutely toxic to fifth instarC. sonorensis larvae at the quantities associated with highly resistant foliage and produces symptoms identical to those observed on resistant foliage. 2-Undecanone, a second methyl ketone present in the glandular trichomes of resistant foliage, was also toxic toC. sonorensis larvae, but significantly less so than 2-tridecanone. The results support the hypothesis that 2-tridecanone is responsible for the observed mortality ofC. sonorensis larvae during cocoon construction on resistant foliage.
