F
ive color traps were used to study the effect of color upon the attractiveness of Soybean stem fly
Melanagromyza sojae
(Zehnter),(Diptera: Agromyzidae) in Nubaria Agriculture Research Station’s farm, throughout 2015 and 2016 seasons.
White, yellow, red, green and blue sticky traps were used to estimate of attraction to suppress of
M. sojae
damage in soybean
fields. White and yellow traps had great effect in suppressing the damage, there were increasing in seed’s weight by using white
and yellow traps which mean the mass trapping of these two color were success in controlling
M. sojae
, blue trap was low effect
and other traps were not effective in captivity the adult.
