The tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the most important pests of tomato in many parts of the world. The objective of this work was to evaluate the damage of T. absoluta on ten tomato cultivars under feld conditions. A randomized complete block design was used with three replications. The evaluated char...

The resistance of 11 tomato cultivars (Ps-6515, Berlina, Poolad, Petoprid-5, Zaman, Matin, Golsar, Sandokan-F1, Golshan-616, Sadeen-95 and Sadeen-21) to the tomato moth, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera:Gelechiidae) was investigated under field conditions. A randomized complete block design was used with three replications. Data analysis indica...

However, chemical control with synthetic pesticides remains the most widely used, especially in the newly invaded areas (Han et al. 2019, Sawadogo et al. 2020b). ...
... Previous studies have shown that survival and growth of T. absoluta in tomato plants can be negatively correlated to high glandular trichomes densities (Sohrabi et al. 2017;Resende et al. 2022), high levels of phenolic compounds (Larbat et al. 2016) and low leaf nitrogen content (Han et al. 2014;Salazar-Mendoza et al. 2023). Here, we found that lower levels of glandular trichome density and total phenolics, and greater nitrogen content in cultivated tomato leaves might have caused the shorting larval developmental time and increased pupal weight of T. absoluta. ...
