For the research period (2003-2016), 57 pest species
and 46 pathogens were recorded on stone and
pomaceous fruits in humid Russian subtropics,
among which the representatives of the order
Lepidoptera and the division Ascomycota
predominate. The greatest number of the species was
recorded on the apple tree - 35 pests and 25
pathogens, the smallest - on cherry and sweet cherry
trees (13 and 10, respectively). 43,7 per cent of the
species are polyphages, while the relative abundance
of monophages among fungi is higher than among
arthropods. The species with activity in the summer
are prevalent. A group of species that are harmful in
humid subtropical environments all year round (11
species of phytophages and 19 pathogens) was
identified. Analyzing the changes in the species
composition of the complex through the time, we can
speak about the relative stability of the dominant
species. The group of the typical dominant species of
pests for almost a century has included Grapholita
molesta Busck., G. funebrana Tr., Cydia pomonella
L., Taphrina deformans (Berk.) Tul., Stigmina
carpophila (Lév.) M.B. Ellis, Monilinia laxa (Aderh.
et Ruhland) Honey, M. fructigena Honey,
Podosphaera leucotricha (Ellis & Everh.) E.S.
Salmon, Venturia carpophila E.E. Fisher and pear
V. pyrina Aderh. Eriosoma lanigerum Hausm.,
Scolytus mali Bechst. and Tranzschelia prunispinosae
(Pers.) Dietel are currently dropped out
from the group of the dominants; Halyomorpha halys
Stål, which is a new pest for Russia, was added.
Groups of the species with sharp fluctuations in
abundance or frequently encountered were
distinguished
In peach orchards of the Russian humid subtropics, leaf curl is the most dangerous and harmful disease. Due to the high degree of danger from the peach leaf curl, for the first time in this region the main task was to analyze peach leaf curl development on weather conditions. In order to solve the problem, it is proposed to apply a new innovative intellectual technology: automated system-cognitive analysis (ASK-analysis) and its software tools - the “Eidos” system. In order to build the model, based on our own observations and the experience of Russian and foreign colleagues, it was decided to use the following factors: the sum of temperatures above +4 ° C of the current year (for the period from January to April), the sum of temperatures above +4 ° C of the previous year (for the whole year), the sum of precipitation of the current year (for the period from January to April), the sum of precipitation of the previous year (for the whole year), the number of hours of infection (in the current year). It was established that such factors as the number of hours of infection, the sum of temperatures above +4 ° C in April and during the period from January to April, as well as the sum of precipitation in March and April, are the most important in the dynamics of peach leaf curl development and spread. High rates of leaf curl spread and development are caused by the number of hours of infection in the range of 1440 ... 2064 hours, as well as by low air temperatures in March and April (the sum of temperatures above +4 °C – 89,4-240,4° and 283,7-316,7°, respectively) and high air temperatures - in January and February (the sum of temperatures above +4 ° C – 155,3-259,6° and 243,5-280,1°, respectively)
