Molluscicide baits based on different active ingredients were tested in a seven-day laboratory trial on juveniles and young adults of Arion lusitanicus Mabille slug collected in ruderal sites during June and July of 2008. ... -
Leafhoppers and Cixiids in Phytoplasma-infected Carrot Fields: Species Composition and Potential Phytoplasma Vectors
The first molecular analysis of samples collected in southern Bačka (Serbia) confirmed the presence of aster yellows (16SrI) and stolbur phytoplasmas (16SrXII) in insects belonging to the family Cicadellidae, as well as ... -
Life History Traits and Population Growth of Greenhouse Whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood) on Different Tomato Genotypes
The effects of five tomato genotypes (cv. Narvik and hybrids NS-6, Tamaris, Alliance and Marko) on the survival, reproduction, development and population growth of the greenhouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum were ... -
Low incidence of Peach latent mosaic viroid in peach mother blocks in Serbia
Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) is the causal agent of peach latent mosaic disease that is common on peaches and nectarines worldwide. Most of the isolates do not cause any symptoms on the foliage and the disease may ... -
Maize, Sunflower and Barley Sensitivity to the Residual Activity of Clomazone in Soil
Sensitivity of maize, sunflower and barley to clomazone residues in loamy soil was assessed in the study using bioassay. Clomazone was applied at a series of concentrations from 0.12 to 12 mg a.i./kg of soil. After 14 ... -
Management of Western Corn Rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera)
Western corn rootworm (WCR) was registered for the first time in Europe near the Surčin international airport in Serbia in 1992. The spread of WCR on the territory of Serbia and its population density increased fast. The ... -
Methods for Detection of Phytophthora fragariae var. rubi on Raspberry
Phytophthora fragariae var. rubi (Wilcox & Duncan), a causal agent of raspberry root rot, is a serious soil-borne pathogen listed by EPPO as an A2 quarantine pest. Root samples were collected from badly diseased raspberry ... -
Methods for Determination of Pesticide Adsorption Properties and Examination of Their Mobility in Soil
Pesticide destiny in soil depends on a number of factors, as well as on presence and intensity of the processes such as adsorption, degradation, evaporation, rinsing and leaching. Since adsorption processes govern ... -
Methods of Imazethapyr Extraction from Soil and Cleaning up by Solid Phase Extraction
The aim of this work was to optimize the determination methods of imazethapyr residues in soil using HPLC with DAD and C 18 (Hypersil ODS, 5 ìm, 2.0 x 250 mm) columns and to find the most appropiate solvent for imazethapyr ... -
Micronucleus frequencies in peripheral blood lymphocytes in a Serbian human population exposed to pesticides
Micronucleus (MN) is a biomarker widely used in biomonitoring studies for determining the genetic risk associated with exposure to pesticides. The purpose of this study was to assess damage to the genetic material of ... -
Mite Pests in Plant Crops – Current Issues, Inovative Approaches and Possibilities for Controlling Them (1)
In the middle of the last century, mites moved into the focus of attention as pests relevant to agriculture, forestry and landscape horticulture, presumably in direct reaction to the “green revolution” that involved plant ... -
Mite Pests in Plant Crops – Current Issues, Inovative Approaches and Possibilities for Controlling Them (2)
Part one discusses some principal mite pests in agroecosystems and urban horticulture in European countries, Serbia and its neighbouring countries focusing primarily on issues with regard to plant production, novel methods ... -
Molecular Detection of Monilinia fructigena as Causal Agent of Brown Rot on Quince
Species of the genus Monilinia are important causal agents of fruit rot on pome and stone fruits in Serbia. The pathogen is very harmful, especially on small properties and cottage plantations where intensive control ... -
