There was a clear and steady increase in root damage starting at 3WAP in summer. Eggs were present in the fall as well, but the level of root injury was more gradual. (EGG count = top graph each season; ROOT damage rating = bottom) FROM: S.V. Joseph, J. Martinez \/ Crop Protection 62 (2014).<\/figcaption>\n    <\/figure>\n<p>the authors of the model above agree that summer activity might have been underestimated because of &#8216;visible competition&#8217; and attractiveness of blooming crops and weeds vs. yellow traps. The spring generation can be extended up to 3 weeks or more, depending on how long rainy, cool weather conditions persist. Also, we know that there are overlapping generations of CRF, and a study from California suggests that egg-laying behavior and subsequent damage during summer months is markedly different than fall:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ANOTHER FACTOR<\/strong> is that <em>Delia radicum<\/em> is actually part of a much larger &#8216;rootfly complex&#8217;, and different species have different ecological niches, behavior, and activity periods. <span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff\" href=\"http:\/\/agsci-labs.oregonstate.edu\/vegnet\/files\/2019\/03\/sppdiffs.jpg\">This table<\/a> <\/span>explains some of those differences<\/span>. Identifying rootflies is hard enough when they are adults, and nearly impossible as maggots and pupae.
