Abstract
Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of the recommended storage temperature for celery (1.1°C) for various lengths of time on the mortality of the egg, larval, prepupal, and pupal stages of Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess). Mortality increased significantly ( P 97% leafminer mortality in heavily infested field-grown celery. I conclude that storage at 1.1°C for at least 16 days could be effective in controlling L. trifolii in shipped celery if no pupae are present between the petioles.
