Onion Maggot and Seed Maggot Management in Onion Using Insecticide-Treated Seed

Abstract

Novel seed treatment chemistries that provide a high level of onion maggot and seed maggot control in onion were investigated. Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate how well seed treatments protected the onion plant from onion maggot when plants were infested at varying ages with varying densities of maggots.
