Abstract

The present study focused on the seasonal abundance of various
sucking pests observed on cotton plants in relation to their associated
natural enemies at three different sowing dates to determine the best
sowing date could escape from the infestation at Gemmeiza Agricultural
Research Station, El-Gharbia Governorate during 2006- 2007 cotton
seasons. This study clarify that there are three piercing-sucking species
infesting cotton plants. Theses species are cotton whitefly
, Bemisia tabaci
(Genn.), cotton leaves Jassid, Emboasca lybica (Deg.) and cotton aphid,
Aphis gossypii Glover. The associated natural enemies were lady bird
Coccinella undecimpunctata (L.) & C. septempunctata (L.), Scymnus
interruptus (Goeze.) & S. syriacus (Marseu), rove beetle, Paederus
alfierii
(Koch); Orius albidiennis (Reuter), O. laevigatus (Fiebern),
Green lacewing,
Chryso/la carnea (Steph.) and true spiders. From this
study it could be concluded that the first sowing date was the suitable one
for cultivating cotton plants which the suitable date for predator's
activation (build up) and resultant in piercing-sucking pest's reduction
especially
A. gossypii. However, the obtained results are of great
importance for the sowing date recommendation to improve and develop < br />the crop management program in cotton fields
