Abstract

Apricot flower midge (Contarinia pruniflorum Coutin & Rambier Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) was first detected in Prunus species in the 1950s and did not become a significant pest for a long time. However, towards the 2000s, the pest caused damage to apricot and plum especially in Mediterranean countries and its distribution continued to increase. The population density of the pest is closely related to the climate of the agricultural area. In recent years, the fluctuation in climatic data causes the population fluctuations. The study was carried out in the Kale and the Yeşilyurt district of Malatya province (Turkey) in 2017-2018. Some biological stages of apricot flower midge were determined in Malatya province and these data were interpreted together with climatic data. It was determined that the pest overwinters as a pupa in the soil. In February, the adult emerges from the pupa with the warming of the air and soil temperatures. It was determined that the adult emerged from the pupa when the soil temperature was 13-14 °C and the air temperature was 7-15 °C. At the beginning of the pink-bud stage of apricot, the pests lay eggs into flower buds. The larval development is approximately 25-28 days. The average number of larvae in the damaged buds was 14, the maximum number of larvae in a bud was 26, and the pest gave an offspring annually and the ratio of male to female was 0.08.

Abstract

Kayısı çiçek tomurcuğu sineği (Contarinia pruniflorum Coutin & Rambier Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) 1950 li yıllarda ilk olarak Prunus türlerinde tespit edilmiş olup uzun bir süre önemli bir zararlı olmamıştır. 2000’li yıllara doğru özellikle Akdeniz ülkelerinde kayısı ve erikde zarar oluşturmuş ve yayılış alanı artarak devam etmiştir. Zararlının popülasyon yoğunluğu yetiştiricilik yapılan alanın iklimi ile çok yakın ilişki içerisindedir. Son yıllarda iklimsel verilerdeki dalgalanma popülasyon seviyesinde de dalgalanmaya neden olmaktadır. Çalışma, 2017-2018 yıllarında Malatya ili Kale ve Yeşilyurt ilçelerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada Malatya ilinde Kayısı çiçek tomurcuğu sineğinin özellikle mücadeleye esas bazı biyolojik dönemleri belirlenmiş ve bu veriler iklimsel verilerle birlikte yorumlanmıştır. Türün kışı toprakta pupa olarak geçirdiği, şubat ayı içerisinde hava (7-15 °C) ve toprak sıcaklıklarının (13-14 °C) ısınmasıyla birlikte erginin pupadan çıktığı tespit edilmiştir. Kayısının pembe tomurcuk döneminin başlarında çiçek tomurcukları içerisine yumurtasını bıraktığı, zarar görmüş tomurcuktaki ortalama larva sayısının 14 olduğu, bir tomurcukta görülen en fazla larva sayısının ise 26 adet olduğu ve yılda 1 döl verdiği, erkek bireylerinin dişi bireylere oranı ise 0.08 olarak belirlenmiştir.
