Abstract
A genetically improved strain of the parasite Trioxys pallidus performed well after release in commercial orchards in 1988, persisting through the
season in four of the five release sites and, at two sites, dispersing to nearby wainut
blocks. Work on the resistant strain also continued in the laboratory, as reported
in the next article.
This research was supported in part by funds from the Walnut Board of California,
Regional Research Project W-84, and the California Agricultural Experiment Station.
The authors thank E. Brown for assistance with the project and walnut growers M. Podesta,
W. Torrison, L. Bairstow, F. Perry, and L. Steele for providing experimental walnut
blocks.
