Scouting techniques combining rapid counting methods must be developed to help growers with immediate decision making in integrated pest management programs. We evaluated a method for estimating densities of western flower thrips, <i>Frankliniella occidentalis</i> (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), one of the most damaging insect pests of greenhouse cucumber, <i>Cucumis sativus</i> L., and rose, <i>Rosa X hybrida</i> crops in southeastern France.
Conceived for scientific and monitoring topics, this "counting" model allows you to calibrate visual abundance classes observed by a tapping method.
Description: This protocol presents a visual, non destructive quantification method based on abundance classes for quick monitoring of diseases (powdery mildew, botrytis) and animal pests (aphids, whiteflies, mites, thrips) on rose foliage.
