INSECT VECTORS OF THE YEAST NEMATOSPORA CORYLI IN MUSTARD, BRASSICA JUNCEA, CROPS IN SOUTHERN SASKATCHEWAN
AbstractEighteen piercing and sucking insects were identified as feeders on green pods of mustard crops, Brassica juncea (L.) Coss. in Saskatchewan. Of these, the false chinch bug, Nysius ericae (Shilling), Lygus spp., and the western damsel bug, Nabis alternatus Parshley, were found to carry the yeast Nematospora coryli Peglion internally. N. ericae was capable of transmitting this organism to seeds in healthy green mustard plants.
