Treatments included DPX-E2Y45 35WG, Imidan 70WP and an untreated check. Imidan 70WP at a 3 lb rate and E2Y45 at 2 and 3 oz rates were sprayed 2X per generation. Application dates and corresponding degree days (DD-base 45°F) from OFM biofix (2 Apr) were 20 Apr (506), 4 May (686), 13 Jun (1537), 29 Jun (2047), 17 Jul (2647), and 31 Jul (3159). E2Y45 at 1 and 2 oz rates were sprayed 3X per generation. Application dates and corresponding degree days (DD-base 45°F) from OFM biofix (2 Apr) were 20 Apr (506), 27Apr (595), 4 May (686), 13 Jun (1537), 21 Jun (1781), 29 Jun (2047), 17 Jul (2647), 24 Jul (2943), and 31 Jul (3159). The experimental treatments were applied to single tree plots replicated four times in a RCBD. Trees were spaced 20 x 20 ft. All applications were made with a Rears Airblast sprayer (28” fan, 180 psi) delivering 100 gpa and pulled through the orchard at 2.6 mph. All trees received regular sprays for disease management. OFM damage to peach shoots was evaluated on 1 Jun, 10 Jul, and 14 Aug by counting the number of damaged shoots (shoot strikes) per tree. Fruit damage at harvest was evaluated on 10 Aug by assessing 25 fruit/tree (100 fruit/treatment). Fruit were scored for various kinds of insect damage. Live larvae in fruit were termed OFM Live. Fruit with either entry holes or frass in the absence of larvae were termed OFM Damage. Feeding damage from TPB and SB were combined and the resulting classification was termed catfacing damage (CF). Pest pressure was high. Fruit damage data were transformed [asin(sqrt(X))] as was shoot strikes [log(X + 1)] before analysis with ANOVA. Treatments means were separated using Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference, at P ≤ 0.05 level. There were no statistical differences between treatments in the number of live OFM larvae found in fruit at harvest but only the 3 oz (2 applications per generation) and the 2 oz (3 applications per generation) treatments had fewer OFM infested fruit than the untreated check (Table 1). The same conclusions can be made for the amount of OFM damaged fruit observed at harvest. Only the Imidan treated fruit had fewer PC egg scars than the untreated check and none of the treatments had less PC feeding damage than the check. None of the treatments were statistically different from each other or the check in terms of CF and LR damage. All treatments provided some level of protection against OFM shoot strikes. No detrimental effects on predatory mites were observed. % damaged fruit OFM PC Avg. no. OFM strikes/tree Treatment/ Rate formulation amt/acre X/gen.
