Few indirect effects of baculovirus on parasitoids demonstrate high compatibility of biocontrol methods against Tuta absoluta
(Wiley, 2022-12-08)
BACKGROUND
Combining different biocontrol agents, particularly micro- and macroorganisms, can contribute to new and sustainable pest control approaches. Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) ...
First record in Africa of the parasitoid Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) on tomato leafminer Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) from tomato fields in Algeria
(Pensoft Publishers, 2021-12-30)
The Neotropical parasitoid wasp Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris (Marsh, 1975) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), one of the most important biocontrol agents of the South American tomato pinworm Tuta absoluta
(Meyrick, ...
The Pupal Parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae Is Attracted to the Same Yeast Volatiles as Its Adult Host
(Springer, 2021-07-16)
There is increasing evidence that microorganisms, particularly fungi and bacteria, emit volatile compounds that mediate the foraging behaviour of insects and therefore have the potential to affect key ...
Attraction of Aphidius ervi (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) to Sweet Alyssum and Assessment of Plant Resources Effects on their Fitness
(Oxford University Press, 2018-01-20)
The green peach aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is one of the most economically important aphid species affecting crops worldwide. Since many natural enemies of this aphid have been ...
Nonreproductive effects are more important than reproductive effects in a host feeding parasitoid
(Nature, 2022-07-06)
When female host feeding parasitoids encounter a potential host, they face a complicated trade-off between either laying an egg for investing in current reproduction or feeding on or killing the host ...
Earwig Releases Provide Accumulative Biological Control of the Woolly Apple Aphid over the Years
(MDPI, 2023-11-18)
Nature-based solutions, such as biological control, can strongly contribute to reducing the
use of plant protection products. In our study, we assessed the effect of augmentative releases of
the ...
Protected agriculture matters: Year-round persistence of Tuta absoluta in China where it should not
(Schweizerbart Science Publishers, 2023-05-26)
Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) originates from the South American tropics but has become a major invasive pest of tomato and other Solanaceae crops worldwide. Agricultural protected facilities ...
Can Insectary Plants Enhance the Presence of Natural Enemies of the Green Peach Aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in Mediterranean Peach Orchards?
(Oxford University Press, 2021-01-22)
Conservation biological control could be an alternative to insecticides for the management of the aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer). To develop sustainable strategies for M. persicae control in peach orchards ...
Naturalized Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris complement the resident parasitoid complex of Tuta absoluta in North-eastern Spain
(Wiley, 2022-03-09)
Our work reports on the establishment of the neotropical parasitoid Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris Marsh (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) for the first time in Europe. This larval parasitoid has been recorded ...
Models for the practitioner: Predicting the efficient biocontrol of Tuta absoluta under different management scenarios
(Elsevier, 2023-06-12)
Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the most destructive pests of solanaceous crops. One possible biological control strategy is the augmentative release of parasitoids. However, ...
