Application of balsam fir sawfly nucleopolyhedrovirus against its natural host Neodiprion abietis (Hymenoptera Diprionidae
Abstract -Fifty-hectare blocks of balsam fir forest, in western Newfoundland Canada, were treated with 1 -3 x 10 9 occlusion bodies/hectare of Neodiprion abietis nucleopolyhedrovirus (NeabNPV) in 2.5 L 20% aqueous molasses using Cessna 188 'Ag Truck' airplanes equipped with Micronaire AU 4...
