Objective:
To investigate the controlling effects of bionic glue on Paratrioza sinica.
Method:
P. sinica and bionic glue were chosen as materials to investigate the adhesive rate, mortality rate, and study the effects of behavior of P. sinica and growth of leaves sprayed with bionic glue.
Result:
Spraying of the bionic glue can significantly increase the adhesive rate of P. sinica with no obviously repellency, and it can be used to control the adults of P sinaca in field with no significant effect on the growth of wolfberry leaves.
Conclusion:
Bionic glue has significant controlling effects on adults of P. sinica, it can be used as an eliminator of adults of P. sinica in field at the beginning of the vegetation season to suppress of the development of P. sinica population.
