Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) is native to South America but has expanded its range and invaded many regions of the world, primarily on flowers a lesser extent horticultural product shipments. As result initial invasion into an area, damage caused usually significant not necessarily sustained. Currently, it economic pest in selected world. Adults cause by puncturing abaxial adaxial leaf surfaces for feeding egg laying sites. Larvae mine parenchyma tissues which can lead leaves drying...
Leafminer flies (Diptera: Agromyzidae) are important agricultural pests worldwide. The objective of our study was to assess the relative importance agromyzids and their associated parasitoids in field vegetable crops along Peruvian coast. In total, nine leafminer fly species were identified 27 crops. most dominant Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) (88.0%). sativae Blanchard second (8.59%) but mainly found northern part Peru. On average, a parasitism 29.5% registered by 63 belonging families...
Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) is an economically important and highly polyphagous worldwide pest. To establish a temperature-dependent phenology model, essential for understanding the development growth of pest population under variety climates as part risk analysis, L. life-table data were collected laboratory conditions at seven constant temperatures on its host faba bean (Vicia L.). Several nonlinear equations fitted to each life stage model species history finally compile overall...
Abstract Identification of the geographic origin invasive species can be critical to effective management and amelioration negative impacts in introduced range. Liriomyza huidobrensis is a polyphagous leafmining fly that devastating pest many vegetable floriculture crops around world. Considered native South possibly Central America, L. became 1980s has since spread at least 30 countries on five continents. We used phylogeographic analysis over 2 kb mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I II...
Abstract Integrated pest management ( IPM ) versus farmers’ practices were evaluated in potato Solanum tuberosum L.) the central coast of Peru. technologies consisted seed treatment, insect pest, and disease scouting using action thresholds for decision making to apply pesticides, use trapping devices selective insecticides chemical control by farmers. An ecological, environmental, economic analysis both approaches was carried out biodiversity indices, environmental impact indicators,...
The South American tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is a major invasive pest of (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) worldwide. Among the different integrated management strategies, biological control most promising. Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris (Marsh) larval endoparasitoid native to Neotropics, where it dominant agent T. along Peruvian coast. determination parasitoid's temperature-dependent development crucial for better predicting potential parasitoid establish in new regions and...
