2007 Annual Report 1a.Objectives (from AD-416) Determine factors affecting whitefly, pink hibiscus mealy bug and glassy-winged sharpshooter population, development, and control using chemicals and resistance development. 1b.Approach (from AD-416) Study crop production methods and chemical control in relation to whitefly, pink hibiscus mealy bug, and glassy-winged sharpshooter biology, behavior, and population development. Develop dose mortality responses and effect on chemicals throughout the season for field-collected and infield chemical whiteflies and pink hibiscus mealy bug and glassy-winged sharpshooter and determine effects of alternating different chemistry insecticide exposures, insecticide mixtures and other approaches on resistance development, biology and population development.
