Abstract

Strawberry decline disease, predominantly viral in origin, was a serious threat to the strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne ex Rozier; Rosaceae) fields of Québec, Canada, between 2012 and 2014. Our aim was to monitor the abundance and activity of the main insect vectors: the strawberry aphid, Chaetosiphon fragaefolii (Cockerell) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). First, we compared the effectiveness of two trapping techniques, the yellow sticky trap and the yellow pan trap. Results showed that the sticky traps are more effective in capturing alates in flight. Second, we determined the peak flight period for each of the two vectors in several locations within the province of Québec. Results suggest that the peak abundance of winged C. fragaefolii is during the first two weeks of August, while the peak abundance of T. vaporariorum is in the last two weeks of September. Overall trap captures also found 53 different species of winged aphids, and we documented a new distribution record on commercial strawberry fields in Québec, Aleyrodes spiraeoides (Quaintance) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Species composition and significant information of flight periods will be useful for the management of virus-transmitting insects associated with strawberry decline disease in Québec.

Résumé

De 2012 à 2014, le dépérissement des fraisières, principalement d’origine virale, fut une menace sérieuse pour les champs de fraises (Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne ex Rozier; Rosaceae) du Québec, Canada. Notre objectif était de faire un suivi de l’abondance et l’activité des principaux vecteurs: le puceron du fraisier, Chaetosiphon fragaefolii (Cockerell) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) et l’aleurode des serres, Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Premièrement, nous avons comparé l’efficacité de deux techniques de dépistage, le piège-collant et le piège-bol jaune. Les résultats indiquent que les pièges-collants sont plus efficaces pour capturer les allates en vol. Deuxièmement, nous avons déterminé les pics de vol pour chacun des vecteurs dans plusieurs régions de la province. Les résultats suggèrent que le pic d’abondance de C. fragaefolii ailé se situe dans les deux premières semaines d’août, celui de T. vaporariorum se situe dans les deux dernières semaines de septembre. Les captures ont également permis d’identifier 53 espèces différentes de pucerons ailés et une nouvelle mention de distribution dans les fraisières commerciales au Québec, soit l’aleurode de l’iris Aleyrodes spiraeoides (Quaintance) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). La composition des espèces et les renseignements significatifs sur les périodes de vol seront utiles dans la gestion des insectes vecteurs de virus associés au dépérissement des fraisières au Québec.
