  • From the Western Palaearctic region to beyond: Tuta absoluta 10 years after invading Europe
    Journal of Pest Science, 2017
    Co-Authors: Mateus R. Campos, Abhijin Adiga, Raul N. C. Guedes, Antonio Biondi, Nicolas Desneux
    Abstract:

    The South American tomato pinworm, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), is a devastating pest currently threatening the global tomato industry worldwide. In the last 10 years, it has spread and expanded to most of Europe, Africa and Asia, causing extensive damage to the crop itself and to the international tomato trade. With the aim of providing an overview of the current knowledge on this pest, we have briefly reviewed the available literature relying on its spread, quarantine, modeling and management. Finally, we have underlined the gaps in knowledge and provided several recommendations on how to achieve sustainable control as well as how to prevent further spread into unaffected areas.

  • increased water salinity applied to tomato plants accelerates the development of the leaf miner Tuta absoluta through bottom up effects
    Scientific Reports, 2016
    Co-Authors: Zhijian Wang, Anne Violette Lavoir, Thomas Michel, Aurelie Seassau, Wenyan Zheng, Nicolas Desneux
    Abstract:

    Variation in resource inputs to plants may trigger bottom-up effects on herbivorous insects. We examined the effects of water input: optimal water vs. limited water; water salinity: with vs. without addition of 100 mM NaCl; and their interactions on tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum), and consequently, the bottom-up effects on the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meytick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae). Plant growth was significantly impeded by limited water input and NaCl addition. In terms of leaf chemical defense, the production of tomatidine significantly increased with limited water and NaCl addition, and a similar but non-significant trend was observed for the other glycoalkaloids. Tuta absoluta survival did not vary with the water and salinity treatments, but the treatment “optimal water-high salinity” increased the development rate without lowering pupal mass. Our results suggest that caution should be used in the IPM program against T. absoluta when irrigating tomato crops with saline water.

  • nitrogen and water availability to tomato plants triggers bottom up effects on the leafminer Tuta absoluta

  • Improvement of integrated management against Tuta absoluta by using new egg parasitoids
    2011
    Co-Authors: Hong Do Thi Khanh, Nicolas Desneux, Anais Chailleux, Marion Tiradon, Etty Colombel, Adrien Bonnet, Elisabeth Tabone
    Abstract:

    The tomato borer, Tuta absoluta, is an invasive pest causing important loss on tomato production The tomato borer, Tuta absoluta, is an invasive pest causing important loss on tomato production in many countries. Newly introduced in France on tomato crops (2008), the number of infested zones has quickly increased. Many alternative methods of protection exist in France and are used in IPM, mostly for biological control (predator: Macrolophus pygmaeus, egg parasitoid: Trichogramma achaeae). However, while limiting the damage, they are quite expensive. So, it is important and urgent to find a new efficient biological solution which is less expensive and safe for the environment. With a funding from the French Ministry of Agriculture (CASDAR), we are looking for a new beneficial oophagous parasitoid. Initially oophagous parasitoids from our collection at INRA PACA were used to compare parasitoid performance against T. absoluta. Experiments were performed on tomato leaves at 25 ± 1°C, RH 75 ± 5 % and 16L: 8hD in order to evaluate emergence rate, fecundity and longevity of parasitoid females. First results of Trichogramma strains efficiency in the lab will be presented and compared to T. achaeae. We hope to find a more efficient species, which can be stored at low temperature and which is adapted to the harsh conditions of tomato crops. The development of this new strategy will be integrated into the IPM method currently available on tomato crops. For this, coordinated actions mobilizing research organisations, development institutes, and private companies, were established.
