Invasive species are alien to the ecosystem under consideration and cause economic or environmental damage or harm to human health. Two alien insects that fit this description are the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys and the spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula. Both invaders are polyphagous pests that feed on a myriad of plant species and inflict severe crop losses. As sustainable control methods depend on the accurate monitoring of species’ invasion and involve the use of natural enemies, we addressed these two facets by exploring novel monitoring techniques and deciphering ho

Résumé :
The commercial forest industry in South Africa is predominantly dependent on large tracts of exotic monoculture plantations. While this simplifies management practice, there is always the inherent danger posed by introduced pests and diseases. Classical biological control is usually the most effective control method against introduced exotic pests. Climatic factors and seasonal differences may negatively affect the ability of the natural enemies to establish successfully at the new location. Successful establishment of the natural enemies usually results in control over the pest within four ye

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a valuable forage crop grown throughout the World. While the crop is resistant to attack by many insect pests, it is subject to potentially severe losses through the action of several specific pests, which are adapted to alfalfa as a host. The most economically damaging of these pests is the alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica. This thesis investigates the endogenous defences of alfalfa against insects, which are responsible for its resistance to non-pest species, and develops a strategy for increasing the resistance of alfalfa towards pest species, specifically alfalfa

Résumé :
Tecoma stans (L.) Juss. Ex Kunth (Bignoniaceae) also known as yellow bells, has a native distribution from Northern Argentina, central America, Mexico and the Southern USA. In many warm climatic regions of the world, T. stans is commonly planted as an ornamental plant because of its yellow flowers, hence the name yellow bells, and pinnate foliage. As a result, this evergreen shrub has wide distribution in the tropical and subtropical parts of the western hemisphere. As is the case in many other parts of the world, T. stans was introduced into South Africa as an ornamental plant, but escaped cu

Résumé :
Rhizoctonia solani (AG-3), the causal agent of Rhizoctonia disease of potato, overwinters as sclerotia on potato tubers. To develop a biocontrol strategy based on the prevention of the sclerotial germination, an isolation of microorganisms colonizing sclerotia of infected potato tubers (cultivars Norland, Atlantic and Souris), was conducted. In vitro screening was used to select effective antagonistic fungi against Rhizoctonia solani. Fifty fungal isolates were selected in order to cover all identified genera and potato variety and examined for their ability to inhibit germination of sclerotia

Résumé :
The use of a biofungicide on the perfect stage of V. inaequalis on leaf litter is one potential way to reduce the number of fungicides used to control apple scab. The previous in vitro screenings of Quebec mycoflora have shown that several isolates are able to significantly reduce the primary inoculum of the pathogen. Among the screened fungi, P176A and P130A, reduced over 98% of the ascospore production and were as effective as Athelia bombacina. However, because in vitro tests are generally poor predictors of in vivo assays a re-evaluation of the antagonists was done under field conditions.

Strains of Bacillus thuringiensis active against Coleoptera were evaluated for toxicity against the adult stage of the carrot weevil, Listronotus oregonensis. Mortality and frass bioassays using a suitable semi-artificial diet showed strains A30, A429 and BTT to be highly toxic. Mortality persisted after initial exposure to the bacteria with the survivors not resuming normal feeding. Attempts to reisolate B. thuringiensis from the insects revealed B. thuringiensis-like organisms in the gut and in/on other structures. At the midgut pH of the insect (pH 8.0), the crystals of the toxic strains we

Résumé :
In 1992, a research program was initiated to select suitable antagonists against the saprophytic (or winter) phase of the apple scab pathogen, Venturia inaequalis. An improved method for the mass screening of a vast collection of fungi was developed for this purpose. Some of the previously reported criteria such as leaf rheology and overwintering structure production proved unreliable or fastidious and cannot be used for in vitro antagonist selection. The main antagonism selection criterium retained was the in vitro inhibition of ascospore formation. To measure ascospore production, a simplifi

The lowest concentration of Phoma conidia which significantly affected (lowered) growth of giant foxtail was 1x106 conidia/ml. In conducting Koch's postulates, all but one (FF2) of the Phoma, isolates tested infected giant foxtail. Isolates FF1 and FF9 were the most virulent against giant foxtail.

Résumé :
This thesis was designed to address three seldom studied aspects of the relationship between herbivores and vegetational diversity. 1. Interactions between vegetational diversity and herbivore mortality due to predation were assessed by experimentally manipulating both the species diversity of plants and the densities of a common generalist predator, the spider Enoplagnatha ovata. 2. The importance of plant size to herbivore densities was examined by quantifying plant size (measured as plant height, width, leaf area and growth rates) and adjusting for it through covariate analysis. 3.
