چکیده
This Article contains typographical errors. In the Results section under subheading 'T. absoluta development' , " The average pupal weight of the individual feeding on plants treated with OW, OW S+ , LW and LW S+ was 3.91 g, 3.58 g, 3.15 g and 3.27 g, respectively ". should read: " The average pupal weight of the individual feeding on plants treated with OW, OW S+ , LW and LW S+ was 3.91 mg, 3.58 mg, 3.15 mg and 3.27 mg, respectively ". In Figure 4, the y-axis 'Pupal weight (mg)' is incorrectly given as 'Pupal weight (g)'. The correct Figure 4 appears below as Figure 1.

Increased water salinity applied to tomato plants accelerates the development of the leaf miner Tuta absoluta through bottom-up effects
Variation in resource inputs to plants may trigger bottom-up effects on herbivorous insects. We examined the effects of water input: optimal water vs. limited water; water salinity: with vs. without addition of 100 mM NaCl; and their interactions on tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum), and consequently, the bottom-up effects on the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meytick) (Lepidoptera: Gelec...
متن کاملNitrogen and water availability to tomato plants triggers bottom-up effects on the leafminer Tuta absoluta
This study examined the effects of various levels of nitrogen inputs (optimal, insufficient and excessive) and water inputs (optimal, low drought and high drought) to tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) on survival and development of an invasive tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meytick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae). Plant growth i.e. plant height and the number of nodes declined under insufficie...
متن کاملEffect of two solanaceous plants on developmental and population parameters of the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae).
Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is an important tomato pest that also feeds on other host-plants from the Solanceae family. We studied the effect of two cultivated plants, tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) and potato Solanum tuberosum L. on the development and populational parameters of T. absoluta related with host-plant suitability. Larval developmental time, pupal weight, mean fecundity and an ...
متن کاملTuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae): a New Pest of Tomato in Serbia
Tomato leaf miner Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), a devastating pest of tomato originating from South America has been recorded in Serbia on three localities: in tomato main greenhouse and open field production area located in the vicinity of town Leskovac (South Serbia), in surroundings of the village Donji Vrtogoš (near town Vranje, South Serbia) and in a greenhouses...
متن کاملNitrogen nutrition of tomato plant alters leafminer dietary intake dynamics.
The leafminer Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is a major pest of the tomato crop and its development rate is known to decline when nitrogen availability for crop growth is limited. Because N limitation reduces plant primary metabolism but enhances secondary metabolism, one can infer that the slow larval development arises from lower leaf nutritive value and/or higher plant defence. As an attempt to stu...
