knowledge of the stages in a pest life cycle is important because
1. all stages cause the same type and amount of damage
2. stages vary in their susceptibility to control strategies
3. all stages look alike
2. stages vary in their susceptibility
an aphid is an example of a
1. defoliator
2. structural pest
3. plant sucking pest
3. plant sucking pest
honeydew is a fungus that covers the leaves of aphid-infested plants
False
symptoms of plant damage caused by sucking pests can include wilt, dead areas,_____
and______
stunting and curling
the first step in pest control program is to learn what control tactics are available.
False
it is not always economically justifiable to spray a crop. if the damage level or insect pest
numbers are below the economic threshold, control measures generally are not warranted.

,True
repeated use of the same compound for many years and applications will help to prevent the
development of insecticide-resistant pest populations
False
those insects or insect-like pest that produce many generations per year and offspring per
generation are more likely to develop resistance to an insecticide than those pests reproducing
less frequently and with fewer offspring.
True
Weeds may be a grass of broadleaf T or F
True
Broadleaf weeds have fibrous roots T or F
False
rotating crops from year to year has no effect on reducing weed populations because all weeds
grow equally well in all crops T or F
False
Establish perennial weeds are more difficult to control than annual weeds because?
Perennial weeds have stored energy reserves that can support plants when under stress
Amino acids synthesis inhibiting herbicides prevent plant sugars from being formed T or F
False
The best times to treat established perennial weeds depends on the weed species T or F
True
Cultural controls include
Planting time
In herbicides selection, two of the most important questions are what weed is to be controlled
and what crop is being grown T or F
True
contact herbicides
2|Page
, Do not control most established perennial weed species unless applied repeatedly
perennial weeds usually recover following treatment by which type of herbicide?
Foliage-contact-nonselective
To delay or avoid weed resistance problems, employ non chemical means of weed control
whenever possible and avoid using the same herbicide or family of herbicides every year T or F
True
weeds resistant to an amino acid synthesis inhibitor will be resistant to lipid inhibitors T or F
False
a feature of plant pathogens is that they can be spread from diseased plants to healthy plants
T or F
True
Most fungai reproduce forming?
Spores
Virus particles are large enough to be seen when magnified to two or three times their normal
size.
T or F
False
Insect feeding is a method of virus spread. T or F
True
Nematodes are small round worms. T or F
True
Plant disease symptoms are caused only by pathogenic organisms. T or F
False
All plant diseases must be controlled when the first symptoms appear. T or F
False
Disinfecting equipment before moving to another field can prevent the introduction of bacteria,
fungi, and nematodes into a non-infected area.
