Abstract
Summary Here we present a simple, cost-effective, and sustainable mass rearing system for western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, with details of molecular identification. Our rearing methods are improved from other systems used previously because we have organized maintenance responsibilities that occur during a Monday through Friday work wk, and have streamlined environmental and nourishment conditions that have greatly sustained F. occidentallis colonies that we use for various physiological experiments. Sumario Aquí presentamos un sistema de crianza masiva que es sustentable, simple y de costo efectivo para el trips de California, Frankliniella occidentalis, con detalles sobre identificación molecular. Nuestros métodos de crianza son una mejoría en comparación a otros usados previamente ya que hemos organizado responsabilidades de mantenimiento estructuradas alrededor de una semana laboral de lunes a viernes, así como la simplificación de las condiciones ambientales y de alimentación que han sustentado enormemente las colonias de F. occidentallis que usamos para varios experimentos fisiológicos.
期刊介绍:
Florida Entomologist is the official journal of the Florida Entomological Society. Volumes 1-3 were published under the name The Florida Buggist. The Florida Entomological Society still produces the traditionally printed version of Florida Entomologist, but you can also view, search, or print any article published since June 1917 by accessing online files. Web access is made possible by the Society’s electronic publication project begun in 1993
