Tuta absoluta Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Gelehiidae) is a significant tomato pest, and chemical pesticides are used extensively for its control. Because of the adverse effects of chemical pesticides, researchers have been paying attention more to biopesticides. In this study, the larvicidal effects of the extracts of Tanacetum vulgare (Asteracea), Aleo vera (L.) and (Liliaceae) Tagetes patula L. (Asteracea) was determined and trials were conducted by using leaf dipping and pot methods. The leaf dipping method was conducted in a climate chamber, whereas the potting experiment was performed in the greenhouse. In all of the experiments, second-stage larvae were used to determine the larvicidal effects. According to the results obtained, the highest larvicidal effect and mortality rate was observed at the highest concentration of T. vulgare extract (86%, effect: 86.55%). The lowest mortality rate and the larvicidal effect was observed at the same concentration of T. patula extract (mortality: 79%, effect: 78.55%). In the pot experiment, the highest yield was seen in the Neem Azal T/S, followed by T. vulgare, A. vera and T. patula extracts. On the first day counts, the lowest insecticidal effect was obtained with the lowest concentration of T. patula extract. The extract of A. vera, T. vulgare and T. patula was effective in experiments carried out in pot and laboratory conditions on T. absoluta. It is suggested that more research be done on using these extracts as a biopesticide to control T. absoluta. Keywords: Tomato leaf miner, plant extracts, larvacidal effect.

Abstract Background In this study, commercial bioinsecticides including entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, and Verticillium lecanii, and Spinetoram active ingredient insecticide were evaluated against the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) larvae. Main body The active ingredients were prepared at the recommended concentrations under laboratory conditions and applied to the 2nd instar larvae of T. absoluta by spraying with a hand sprayer. On the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th days of the application, evaluations were made by counting survived individuals. The findings showed that the highest mortality rates were detected in the case of Spinetoram with 56, 60, 88, and 100% on all counting days of the experiments, respectively. The highest mortality rate among bioinsecticides was recorded for M. anisopliae, with 87% mortality on the 7th day of application. Short conclusion As a result, Spinetoram was found the most effective insecticide when applied to T. absoluta, followed by M. anisopliae.

Seasonal activity and population fluctuation of tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick), a dangerous pest of tomato fields in Tehran province, were determined in Varamin region, south of Tehran province in 2015-2016. Number of moths in pheromone trap and number of larvae per plant were counted weekly in a trail tomato field. The trap capture began on mid-April in warm dry spring of 2015 and on mid-May in cool wet spring of 2016. The first and highest moth peaks in trap occurred about one month earlier in 2015 than 2016. The larval density per plant at the highest peak reached 2.34 and 10.8 in 2015 and 2016, respectively. A temperature range of 25-30°C was desirable to the pest in which the interval of successive peaks decreased. In both years, the pest created three generations over a growing season, according to larval peaks, but 11 over a year, according to trap data, that the 11th generation overwintered. The temperature of 35°C and above limited larval activity and decreased the population. After the crop removed, the pest population declined due to host shortage, but it increased with the access of hosts in the second cultivation since mid-September until the cold season.
