Abstract
Field experiments were conducted at cotton fields of Biala district, Kafr EI-Sheikh Governorate, Egypt to study the effect of sowing date of cotton Var. Giza 86 on the population densities of A. gossypii, B. tabaci and some associated predators and seed-cotton yield during 2003 and 2004 seasons. Plants sown early during March infested with the lowest means of aphids (124.39 and 116.70 / 100 leaves), and immature whiteflies (467.3 and 126.4 / 100 leaves) harbored the highest accumulative number of green bolls (159.1 and 191.4 / plant) during the scouting period of 20 weeks. and produced the highest seed-cotton yield (8.53 and 9.65 Kentar / feddan) in 2003 and 2004, respectively. On the contrary, plants sown in late April infested with the highest means of aphids (494.29 and 270.67 / 100 leaves) and immatures whiteflies (768.2 and 455.1 / 100 leaves), harbored the lowest accumulative number of green bolls (118.5 and 148.9 / plant) during the scouting period of 20 weeks and produced the lowest seed-cotton yield (5.96 and 6.73 Kentar / feddan) in 2003 and 2004, respectively .The plants sown in early April showed |
