RUSSIAN W HEAT APHID
The Russian Wheat Aphid RWA)
vs as first discovered here in Morrow
County last year in several wheat
fields It was watched closely
throughout the winter
This spnng. after several dren­
ching rains, the aphid disappeared
It died Entomologists suspect that it
contracted a dread aphid disease and
died They have no date to support
the thesis, however And we can not
count on springs like this last one
with it’s excellent moisture every
year.
The RWA does not do well in ihe
midwest and eastern states, and it is
probably due to the dampness there
it is also less o f a problem in ir­
rigated fields
This demonstrates that the RWA
is susceptible to biological control,
however Biological control uses the
pests own natural enemies to control
it. and is often the most effective,
long range method It is also the
cheapest
Fourteen western slates, the
USDA. and Canada arc cooperating
in an effort to obtain biological con­
trol agents for the RWA This past
spring. Dr Victor East op lone o f the
world's foremost aphidologists). Dr
Klaus Carl from Canada, and several
USDA scientists travelled to eastern
Turkey looking for natural enemies
o f the RW A About twelve were
found
The twelve species o f natural
enemies were brought to the USDA
European Parasite l-ab in Paris
where they are now in culture Susan
Holbert. an entomologist at Parma.
Idaho, has recently received a few
species at her lab and will be rear
ing them for release soon
It is just this type o f program
which holds the most promise for
control o f the RWA
The Extension office is mapping
RWA activity in Morrow County
Anyone who finds this pest, or
suspects he has found it. on wheat
or barley is encouraged to call Fred
