Abstract

Summary Two-year observations were carried out on the occurrence and damages caused by bean seed maggot (Hylemyia florilega Zett.) in the area of extensive cultivation of green beans, in Masovian region. The pest was monitored by using yellow sticky traps at the time of seed sowing in May 2013 and 2014. Population of flies on experimental plots was high in both seasons and maximum of their occurrence was observed in the first half of May. In 2013 ten percent plants showed damages while in 2014 twenty percent of plants were destroyed and, majority of them at the early stage of development. High percentage of damages resulted from intensive cultivation of green beans in both experimental years in this region.

Summary

Introduction

Streszczenie Przeprowadzono dwuletnie obserwacje występowania i szkodliwości śmietki kiełkówki (Hylemyia florilega Zett.) w rejonie uprawy fasoli szparagowej w województwie mazowieckim. Odmiany wcześniejsze fasoli szparagowej są częściej atakowane przez szkodliwe larwy. Aby ustrzec się strat powodowanych przez żerowanie larw wskazane jest wysiewanie nasion w późniejszym terminie, ponieważ larwy chętnie żerują w nasionach długo kiełkujących, przy niskiej temperaturze powietrza (Szafirowska i Kłosowski 2011).
