چکیده
The tomato leaf miner Tuta absoluta is one of the most destructive pests plant Solanum lycopersicum L worldwide. Synthetic chemical insecticides are mainly used to manage T. absoluta. However, their excessive use has led serious problems concerning human health, non-target organisms and environnement. Biological control, using bacteria, entomopathogenic fungi, animals plants remain an eco-friendly alternative for controlling miner. Here we review biological management with special reference control extracts.

Endoparasitoids can be killed by host encapsulation, a cellular-mediated host immunological response against parasitism that involves hemocytes aggregation. As a counteracting strategy, many parasitoids can evade this host response through self-superparasitism. The objectives of this study were: 1) to describe the parasitoid Pseudapanteles dignus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) early immature stages ...
