Evaluation of Aerially-Applied Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus for Suppression of the Gypsy Moth, 'Lymantria dispar L.'

摘要

Single and double applications of the nuclear polyhedrosis virus of Lymantria dispar resulted in foilage protection, population reduction, and increased numbers of virus-infected hosts. Second generation larval emergence was significantly lower in treated areas than in untreated populations.
