Abstract

Oriental fruit moth, Grapholita molesta Busck (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is an important fruit pest with a wide range of host in many fruit producing countries. This study was conducted with the purpose of determining the adult population development of G. molesta on different fruit species in different locations in Çanakkale province of Turkey. With this purpose pheromone traps were placed in peach, cherry and apricot orchards in Central, Biga, Lapseki and Bayramiç districts of Çanakkale province. The traps were checked weekly and the number of adult G. molesta in traps were recorded. At the end of the study, the pest is confirmed to exist in all fruit producing areas of Çanakkale province. First adult emergence was at early May with the adult population continuing until October. The pest has 2-3 generations throughout production season, which may change with relation to fruit species and location. According to the statistical analysis of the data, both location and fruit species have significant effects on adult population development of the pest with the highest population occuring in peach as the fruit species and Lapseki disrict as the location. It is thought that, the differences in adult population density and development between orchards with the same fruit species is caused by different fruit cultivars used in orchards, different treatments by farmers and climate differences.

Farklı Meyve Türlerinde ve Lokasyonlarda Grapholita molesta (Busck 1916) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) ‘nın Ergin Popülasyon Gelişmesi

Abstract

Geniş bir konukçu aralığına sahip olan doğu meyve güvesi, Grapholita molesta Busck (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) birçok meyve üretimi yapılan ülkede önemli bir meyve zararlısıdır. Bu çalışma G. molesta’nın Çanakkale İli’nde farklı meyve türlerinde ve farklı lokasyonlarda ergin popülasyon gelişmesinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla, Merkez, Biga, Lapseki ve Bayramiç ilçelerinde şeftali, kiraz ve kayısı bahçelerine feromon tuzakları yerleştirilmiştir. Tuzaklar haftalık olarak kontrol edilerek tuzaklara yakalanan ergin sayıları kaydedilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda zararlının meyve üretimi yapılan bütün ilçelerde bulunduğu ve ilk erginlerin genel olarak mayıs başında tuzaklara yakalandığı ve ekim ayına kadar ergin çıkışının devam ettiği görülmüştür. Popülasyon gelişmesi göre meyve türlerine ve lokasyona göre değişmekle birlikte zararlı yaklaşık 2-3 nesil oluşturmaktadır. Gerçekleştirilen istatistiksel analiz sonuçlarına göre zararlının popülasyon yoğunluğu üzerinde lokasyonun ve meyve türünün etkisi olduğu ve popülasyonun meyve türü olarak en yoğun şeftalide, lokasyon olarak ise Lapseki ilçesinde görüldüğü sonucuna varılmıştır. Aynı meyve türüne sahip bahçelerde görülen popülasyon yoğunluğu ve popülasyon gelişmesindeki farklılıkların bahçe tesisinde kullanılan meyve çeşidi, üreticilerin farklı uygulamaları ve farklı lokasyonlardaki iklimsel farklılıklardan kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir.
