Parasitoides do gênero Trichogramma são utilizados em todo o mundo para manejo de pragas. A capacidade dispersão desses insetos cultivos determina número pontos necessários liberação que haja resultados satisfatórios quanto ao parasitismo e consequentemente, da praga. Para determinação T. pretiosum couve repolho, foram demarcadas áreas 26 x m, colocadas cartelas contendo ovos A. kuehniella dist...

Thelytokous Wolbachia -infected Trichogramma species have long been considered as biological control agents against lepidopteran pests in agriculture and forestry. has suggested to increase the probability of superparasitism , but fate infected offspring superparasitised host is still unknown. The present study aimed evaluate fitness thelytokous (TDW) bisexual -free (TD) dendrolimi Matsumura (H...

The diversity of arthropod pests has required the combined use various control methods. application essential oilsshowing insecticidal, repellent or phage-inhibiting activity, together with release natural enemies, can improve integrated pest managementprovided oils display selectivity. aim this study was to evaluate selectivity rosemary pepper [Lippia origanoidesKunth (Verbenaceae)], citronell...

wolbachia is an intracellular endosymbiont, which can induce thelytokous parthenogenesis in trichogramma egg parasitoids with the infected females producing daughters without any mating. with regard to the usual transfer of wolbachia which is vertical from the mother to her offspring through the cytoplasm of eggs, this manipulation of host’s reproduction can enhance its transmission to future g...

Abstract Background Egg parasitoids belonging to the genus Trichogramma (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) are important natural enemies that have been successfully used in biological control programs and mostly reared on Mediterranean flour moth, Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). Host quality is a crucial factor can determine parasitoid fitness. Main body Laboratory studies ...

Domates güvesi [Tuta absoluta (Meyrick,1917) (Lep.: Gelechiidae)] Türkiye’de 2009 yılından itibaren domates ekiliş alanlarında önemli bir zararlı konumuna geçmiştir. “Ülkesel Güvesi” projesi kapsamında ile biyolojik mücadele çalışmaları farklı illerde yürütülmüş ve umut verici sonuçlar alınmıştır. Bu sonuçların üreticilere benimsetilmesi uygulamaya aktarılması amacı yayım hazırlanmıştır. Çalışm...
