Approx 20 insects and mites were found attacking cassava in several regions of Colombia at different growth stagcs and seasons. Thrips (Frankliniella williamsi), gall midges (Cecidomyiidae) and whiteflies (Bemisia sp. and Trialeurodes sp.) were present in greater than 50 percent of the plantation...

Insectos y acaros que atacan el cultivo de la yuca en Colombia
In the past decade, whiteflies (Homoptera:Aleyrodidae), as pests and vectors of plant viruses, have become one of the most serious crop protection problems in the tropics. The result has been devastating crop losses for small-holder producers and unprecedented insecticide abuse. There is urgent n...

Recent advances in host plant resistance to whiteflies in cassava
In early 1993, the spiralling whitefly, Aleurodicus dispersus (Russell), was observed in Benin for the first time, inflicting damage to ornamental and shade trees and cassava. The parasitoids Encarsia ?haitiensis Dozier and E. guadeloupae Viggiani were observed in the second half of 1993. They we...

Whiteflies (Hemiptera, Aleyrodidae) are represented by more than 1500 herbivorous species around the world. Some of them are notorious pests of cassava (Manihot esculenta), a primary food crop in the tropics. Whitefly populations are regulated mainly by Hymenopteran parasitoids. Despite their imp...
