Second generation borers initially feed on leaf collars and sheaths, cutting off the flow of nutrients to the developing ear. |
|
Occasionally it can be attacked by leafy mistletoe, verticillium wilt, fungal diseases, stem borers, scale, and some rodents. |

Today, most piers and boats are constructed with materials that are resistant to the borers, such as concrete in the case of piers. |
|
As an example, birch trees always get leafminers, aphids and borers while red oaks rarely get significant pests. |
|
From the Early Permian to the Late Triassic, however, there are only a few reports of mite wood borers. |
|
In future articles, we'll talk about plant chewing critters like beetles, caterpillars, borers, and the Leaf Cutter Bee. |
|
And it will zap aphids, borers and other destructive insects that eat flowers and leaves. |
|
The disease is also transmitted by several insects and related pests, including fruit flies, beetles, borers, mites, and even squirrels. |
|
Thus, the hypothesized paleoclimate of the two fossil localities fits well within the range in which both insect and mite wood borers are found today. |
|
Both Z and E borers are found in Europe and were introduced into eastern North America early in the 20th century, presumably on shipments of broomcorn. |
|
They consist of a large number of carefully made large blades and flakes and an unusually high proportion of finished tools including backed knives, scrapers and borers. |
|
Two rice strains were genetically altered to resist two insects, rice stem borers and leaf rollers, which sometimes require heavy use of pesticides to control. |
|
After examining the opening of these traces, it is tempting to assign their origin to the behavior of vermiform borers such as annelids, sipunculids, or phoronids. |

|
When denied adequate light and air circulation, it becomes infested with scale insects, leaf beetles and borers. |

|
See Rocky Mountain Tree Ring Research reference for detailed information on use and care of increment borers. |

That is not very likely, however, since borers don't usually attach to ginkgos. |
|
Dermapteran predators in the biological regulation of sugarcane borers in India. |
|
Silverleaf desmodium is planted in the crop to repel stem borers and to attract the natural enemies of the pest. |
|
YieldGard VT Pro is a second-generation YieldGard Corn Borer trait that will offer broader control of corn insects, including corn borers, fall armyworms and corn earworms. |
|
The corn borers are in the cornstalks in your vegetable garden along with the squash bugs, cucumber beetles, carrot flies, spores of mildew and numerous other fungi. |
