Abstract

Abstract Treatments were applied to a completely randomized block. Each treatment consisted of single trees replicated 4 times. Sprays were applied in 55 gal of finished spray per acre by a Bean orchard sprayer. Evaluations were made by examining 100 apples per replication for injury and categorizing injuries by their respective pest. A single mite count was made by collecting 50 leaves from each replication and brushing them in a mite brushing machine. Resulting plates were examined using a stereo binocular microscope recording numbers of ERM and predaceous mites on each plate. Material shortages prevented full season applications. Sprays were applied as follows: UC 76963 on 27 Apr at pink (P), 13 May at petal fall (PF), 25 May, 4 Jun, 16 Jul; CME 13411 on 13 Jun, 25 Jun, 16 Jul.
