Mo. Investigations and Control of the Codling Moth and Other 



Fruit and Vegetable Insects. To (1) develop more efficient 

 spray program for control of insects and mites attacking tree 

 fruits; (2) develop effective program to control insects and 

 mites attacking small fruits; (3) study biology of arthropod 

 pests of vegetable crops and develop better methods for their 

 control; and, (k) study residues of chemicals applied to fruits 

 and vegetables under field and laboratory conditions.

N. C. Biology, Icology and Control of Insects Affecting Peaches 

 and Apples . To learn (1) prevalence and ingxprtance of various 

 insects eiffecting peaches and apples in North Carolina; (2) 

 life history, habits, suid biology; (3) ecology of peach and 

 apple insects; (U) relationship of parasites and predators to 

 abundance of insects; (5) effect of insecticides on the tree, 

 fruit, parasites, predators, pollinating Insects and injur ioiis

 Ent. E-k2 



Utah The Control of Mites and Insects on Fruit Trees . Evaluate 



available miticides in control of mites on fruit trees, learn 

 optimum time and rate of application and their effect on other 

 heirmful and beneficial, insects in orchards. Fit more effective 

 miticides into well rounded spray program by integrating mite 

 control program with best control for other insects. Study 

 habits and distributions of species in State to learn importance 

 of species foimd on fruit trees.
