The occurrence of thrips (Thysanoptera) on food legumes (Fabaceae)

英语. The occurrence, quantity and population fluctuations in thrips (Thysanoptera) on various food legume crops (Leguminosae or Fabaceae) in southern Poland were investigated. Eighteen species of thrips have been described on food legume vegetables, with Thrips tabaci, Frankliniella intonsa and Thrips fuscipennis being the most common. The latter three species made up 90% or more of the total number of thrips collected during 2006 and 2007. Thrips occurred on peas (Pisum sativum) and lentil (Lens culinaris) in May and June, and on beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) and soya beans (Glycine max) in June and July. The number of T. tabaci on (young) lentil and peas was significantly higher than on beans and soya beans. Most were observed in the flowers and developing young pea pods. A large number of Frankliniella intonsa was present during the flowering stage, but the insects were short-lived. T. fuscipennis was present in all samples, with a peak in numbers during the flowering period.
