Abstract
In Romania, the most important pest in apple orchards is the codling moth (Cydia pomonella L.). The main purpose of this study was to analyze the biology and ecology of the codling moth in the local climatic conditions of Hunedoara County, in order to be able to identify the best treatments and optimal moments to apply them. Between 2011-2012, the flight curve of the Cydia pomonella L. adults was observed in the apple orchards of the Hunedoara Phytosanitary Unit, using AtraPOM synthesis sex pheromone traps. In these conditions of ecosystem, the biological life cycle of the Cydia pomonella L. presented two generations/year, in 2011 (year with thermal conditions close to the multiannual values), a complete first generation and an incomplete second generation, while in 2012 (year with thermal conditions significantly higher than the multiannual values) both generations were complete. During the two years of study, the codling moth registered three, respectively four flight curves during the vegetative season (two for the first generation and one, respectively two for the second generation).
