Damage ofMecorhisungarica(Coleoptera: Rhynchitidae) on Wild Plum (Prunus sp.) Fruits
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 12
Abstract
Rose weevil, Mecorhisungarica(Hbst.) (Coleoptera: Rhynchitidae) is an important pest of rosehip. However, it was observed for the first time that it caused damage to the wild plum (Prunus sp.) inUşak Province. On July 18, 2017 and in the second year on July16, 2018, a total of 178fruits were collected from the plants to determine the number of damage and they were brought to the laboratory. In observations made on these, it was observed that all of the fruits were damaged in the first year and the fruits were damaged by 73.0% in the second year. In these fruits it was calculated that the average number of damage on each fruit was 5.1 ± 3.11 (n = 89)in the first year and 1.9 ± 2.07 (n = 89) in the second year. As a result of the counts made every two years, it has been calculated that there is at least 1 and at most 16 damages in each fruit.According tothese result, it is seen that M. ungarica is a significant harmful pest of wild plum in Uşak Province.
