摘要：

Action thresholds for management of Anthonomus eugenii on Capsicum annuum were compared. Damage-based thresholds of 1% and 5% damaged bud clusters provided marketable yields similar to calendar-based spray programs with a reduction of up to ten sprays per season under light weevil pressure. Weevil damage in bud clusters was significantly correlated with adult counts; therefore, damage can serve as a practical index for weevil activity. -from Authors
