New Insecticides Update
Closer (Dow AgroSci.) sulfoxaflor– registered for pome fruits, stone fruits and grapes– sap-feeding insects(aphids, leafhoppers and
mealybugs)– shares a target site with neonicotinoid
insecticides, but with a unique mode of action. Closer will control insects tolerant to neonics.
– translaminar movement in leaves, moves with water stream in plant
– relatively safe on many beneficials.

Monitoring for BMSB• Orchards near
• overwintering locations = woods, buildings• streams, deep gullys• soybean fields & other hosts
• Observe orchard edges• look at fruit high in tree: catfacing, gummosis, dark spots
• Place trap at high risk location(s)• Capture bugs and confirm identification• Aggregations in fall

• Need at least 3/4 acre orchard, more or less solid stand
• Not as effective if surrounded by orchards where the insect is not being well managed.
• If 1st year of use, won’t see benefit until 2nd generation. This is because disruption does not kill, it only helps to prevent the next generation

• Monitor with traps & fruit inspection.
• Because insects have uneven distribution in an orchard you need to have approximately 2 traps per 10 acres
• Need more than 1 trap per block, regardless of the size, in order to have a better average trap count
Need to monitor the disrupted insect to make sure that the disruption is working

Combinations CommentsMancozeb + copper 18 hr backaction, Phytoxicity potential for copperMancozeb + syllit Some eradicative action. Some orchards may
have some dodine-resistant scab. Compatible with oil.
Mancozeb + captan 18 hr backaction, not compatible with oil.
Mancozeb + Ziram 18 hr backaction, more prone to washoff than captan
Mancozeb + (Scala or Vangard) 48 to 72 hour back action if Scala/Vangard used at full rate. Scala/Vangard does not redistribute well. Use under cool conditions

Reduces active shoot growth
Limits shoot blight strikes
Reduces # cankers
Absorbed by apple foliage, only shoots that are sprayed are affected
May have use in high density plantings where trees have filled space. Maybe can be used at low doses in early years of planting
Do not use on Empire or Winesap due to fruit cracking issues in some years

Phytophthora crown and collar rot of fruit trees
The disease frequently kills trees 5-7 years in age, about the time they begin to bear fruit.
Trees with collar rot are poorly anchored, have brown/red cambium tissue in the lower trunk, crown, and feeder roots.
Pathogen is more active in wet soils and at soil temperatures of 55-70°F.
Key factors- Heavier soils, susceptible rootstock, cool & wet weather, trees planted too deep
![Page 37: Tree Fruit Pest Management Review 2015williamshane.weebly.com/uploads/2/7/0/7/27077603/... · Tree Fruit Pest Management Review 2015 Bill Shane Michigan State University Extension](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020109/5e294e9c9305f376d43c2120/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Tree Fruit Update
Treatment of crown and collar rot by Phytophthora
Ridomil Gold SL 0.5 pt/100 gal water
Rates are based on tree size. Need rain or irrigation to move material into root zone.
Ridomil Gold 480 EC is very soluble in water and moves systemically up from roots into stems and then leaves with the transpiration stream of plants. This fungicide does not move downward to roots within treated plants, so apply this fungicide as a soil drench for best results against root diseases.
Note: Aliette, Agri-Fos, Fosphite, and Phostrol also registered for this disease, but may be more useful in the fall because need foliage for uptake (foliar application)

Under favorable conditions, bacteria spread from spring cankers to infect leaf tissue. Bacterial populations build up on leaves and later spread to fruit after shuck split.

Bacterial Spot Notes
Warm temps, moisture (frequent rain, heavy dew, high humidity), high winds, driving rains favor epidemics
Disease can be severe especially where peach is grown on sandy sites
Vigorously-growing trees are less susceptible to disease than weaker trees.
After shuck split fruit are exposed to infection.
Bacterial spot leaf symptoms.

If you have not had a rain since the last copper, hold off or skip the next application. Apply no sooner than weekly. Look for signs of copper injury and the amount of copper residue before each application. If copper is obvious on the foliage, hold off. If the amount of copper damage is becoming significant, hold off. Lime alone can be applied to help safen the existing copper on the foliage.

Where are we at in leaf spot management?
Bravo – chlorothalonil (petal fall, shuck split)Cover spray options:
– SDHI: Merivon, Luna Sensation– Strobilurins (Gem)– Pristine – may be weak due to resistance to boscalid component– Syllit + Captan– Copper
Bravo postharvest
Pristine, Gem, Adament, Syllit are all at risk of resistanceCopper has potential phytotoxicity issues
Also controls powdery mildew, add captan
Watch phytotoxicity

thiamethoxam (Actara) sucking pestschlorantraniliprole (Altacor) caterpillars
The best fit of this product on apple is for first generation codling moth. This timing will also control plum curculio, early egg hatch of tufted apple bud moth.
The best fit on peaches is from petal fall through shuck fall for the control of oriental fruit moth, plum curculio, tarnished plant bug, stink bugs and green peach aphids.
use of Voliam Flexi and other products containing thiamethoxam (Actara, Endigo) in the same season will contribute to the seasonal maximum allowance for this active ingredient. REI = 12 hours; PHI = 35 days (pome fruits), 14 day (stone fruits).
