Description |
The family Solanaceae is considered as the third important agronomical botanical family in the word. In the Zone 1 of Ecuador, potato is grown in the provinces of Imbabura and Carchi (8000 ha), tomato (3000 ha under cover, 4000 ha in open field). The poor phytosanitary status of the plants badly affects its final quality, which can not allow taking an advantage of all production for agro industrial processing in search of the export market. In this review article are described the main pests affected Solanaceae crops – their biology and ecology, damage and symptoms, key management strategies and integration of control measures.Key words: potato, tomato, Tuta absoluta, Phtorimaea operculella, Tecia solanivora
