摘要
Early outbreaks of Aphis gossypii were formerly negligible in central Africa but now affect cotton from the start of its development cycle. Four years of trials on protection against infestation show that the outbreaks cause a delay in vegetative development and seed cotton production losses of 5-23%. This makes Aphis gossypii one of the main pests in this part of the world. Early sowing is the most effective way of controlling infestation. Protection of the seed appears to be the best method of control for late sowing.
