Opis

The tomato leaf miner T. absoluta Meyrick has invaded tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) crop in Egypt and is representing today a major threat to the production of this crop. Therefore, integration with other control methods (cultural, biological and biotechnological methods) becomes imperative, as the continued use of chemical insecticides could harm non-target organisms (Landgren, et al., 2009, Abdel-Raheem, 2005 & 2013 Urbaneja, et al., 2007, Abdel-Raheem, et al., 2009, Abdel-Raheem and Zakia A.
