Whitefly Biotype Q program Homestead July 13, 2016

FREE program but registration appreciated. State specialist Dr. Lance Osborne will cover biology, identification, current distribution and management guidelines for growers in South Florida.

The biotype Q has been detected in a number of landscapes in Palm Beach County. This is the VERY FIRST TIME it has been found in a landscape or outside a greenhouse or nursery since it was found on an ornamental plant in a greenhouse many years ago. This is extremely troubling considering the issues we have with many of the tools we use to manage whiteflies.
