South and Southeast Asian regions are home to more than 30 per cent of the world’s population; half the world’s poor and malnourished. Agriculture plays a critical role in terms of employment and livelihood security for a large majority of people in most countries of the region. The region is pro...


Predicting the potential geographical distribution of a species is particularly useful for pests with strong invasive abilities. Tetranychus evansi, possibly native of South America, is a spider mite recognized as a pest of solanaceous crops. This mite is considered as an invasive species in Afri...
