Excited to meet in person some of the PDFs in our Postdoctoral Fellows Association (PDFA) social today!! 🥳

Hello #abbugchat, I work with @BoydMori and we are looking for canola fields with second generation flea beetles. Please let me know if there are any in your fields. Thank you!

#abbugchat I have collected thousands of flea beetles yesterday in Newell County No. 4 (Southern AB). Still looking for flea beetle sites in Central and Nothern Alberta. Please let me know! Thank you.

Our Postdoctoral Fellows Association (PDFA) office is now open for business! 🎉E-mail us and we can arrange an in person meeting with you! 🤝 Thank you NASA for the delicious lunch today! It was nice to finally meet you all in person!

First field visits, flea beetle collections and first bioassays have all started smoothly! @BoydMori #abbugchat

The happiness when you find gazillions of flea beetles to conduct bioassays but sad news for the farmers! Thank you Rakesh Vunnam from Bayer for giving us the perfect field site to collect. @BoydMori Crop Science Canada #abbugchat

#abbugchat SCOUT for flea beetle defoliation and stem feeding. For every 5 degrees C increase between 5 and 25C feeding doubles.... Scout frequently in warm temperatures, if crop is stressed or other food sources are sprayed out like the big volunteer on the right.

We are still looking for canola fields with flea beetles especially in central and northern Alberta to conduct some insecticide tolerance bioassays. Kindly let us know if you are aware of any filed sites. Thank you 🙏 @BoydMori #abbugchat
