Abstract:
【Objective】 In order to clarify the cause of the weak and dry death of a large area of
Hippophae rhamnoides trees in Aheqi County of Xinjiang and Urumqi County, the investigation of
Hippophae rhamnoides forests in two places was carried out in the hope of providing theoretical basis for the effective control of sea-buckthorn pests and diseases.
【Methods】 The standard survey method was used to investigate the situation of
Hippophae rhamnoides forest and identify the species of diseases and insect pests.The damaged
Hippophae rhamnoides was dissected to determine its harm characteristics and its spawning position was investigated by means of foot survey.
【Results】 Hippophae rhamnoides forest in Aheqi County was harmed by the
Cossus cossus (Linne) and the
Holcocerus Arenicola (Staudinger), and the
Hippophae rhamnoides forest in Urumqi County was harmed by the
Cossus cossus (Linne), which caused a large area of
Hippophae rhamnoides tree weakness, dry death.In Aheqi County and Urumchi County, the occurrence rate of
Cossus cossus (Linne) was 52.25%.In Aheqi County, the occurrence rate of
Cossus cossus (Linne) was 62.40%, and the population density was 24.62 per plant, with the highest number of 85 per plant.In Urumqi county, the infestation rate of aromatic
Cossus cossus (Linne) was 42.10%, the infestation density was 100.62 per infestation, and the single infestation was up to 288.The number of egg blocks in the position of 91~150 cm of
Hippophae rhamnoides trunk was the largest, accounting for 54.10% of the total number of egg blocks.The larva of the current year distributed most in the position of 31~60 cm of
Hippophae rhamnoides trunk, accounting for 31.05% of the total number of larvae.When the height of the trunk was more than 180 cm, the number of egg blocks and larvae in the current year decreased sharply or even did not distribute.The number of out-of-year larvae in the root of
Hippophae rhamnoides was the highest (423, accounting for 45.58% of the total number), and their number decreased with the increase of trunk height within 120 cm.
【Conclusion】 The dry death of
Hippophae rhamnoides in Aheqi County and Urumqi County of Xinjiang was caused by the harm of
Cossus cossus (Linne) and
Holcocerus Arenicola (Staudinger), and
Cossus cossus (Linne) has been serious.The best time for chemical control is the incubation period of the eggs and the period when the newly hatched larvae first drill into the bark, which can be sprayed at the position of 31~150 cm in the cadre of
Hippophae rhamnoides.
