赤色光照射および光反射シート被覆による 施設ナス・キュウリのアザミウマ類2 種 （アザミウマ目：アザミウマ科）の密度抑制

The effects of red-light irradiation and a reflective sheet cover on the population density of two thrips species（Thysanoptera: Thripidae）, the melon thrips（Thrips palmi Karny）and the onion thrips （Thrips tabaci Lindeman）, were investigated on eggplant and cucumber in a greenhouse in 2014 and 2015. Red fluorescent lamps were illuminated from above the plants and a light reflecting sheet was placed on the ridges of the treated plots. A greenhouse without either material was set up as a control plot. The population densities of the two thrips species on eggplant and T. palmi on cucumber were significantly lower in the treated plots than in the control plot. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
