Abstract

Tomato Leafminer [Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)] is a pest of great economic importance in tomato production. The aim of this research was to evaluate the population development and the infestation rate of Tomato Leafminer in the tomato and eggplant greenhouses in the Republic of Azerbaijan. The study was conducted for the first time in the greenhouses located in Absheron economic region of Azerbaijan during 2019. Adult population dynamics of T. absoluta were monitored using sexual pheromone traps. According to the results obtained from the study, the pest formed the peaks of adult population on March 12th, March 26th and April 9th with 197, 91 and 76 adults/trap respectively. The pest population with respect to the eggplant greenhouse was lower compared with the tomato greenhouse. The results showed that T. absoluta was able to complete 2-3 generations in tomato and eggplant greenhouses during March and April in Absheron region of Azerbaijan. The infestation rate of T. absoluta in tomato greenhouse interpreted increasing trend staring from the beginning of March till April 12th. Thus so, the infestation rate caused by the pest was 30% at the beginning of March and reached 66.7% in the middle of the March. It reached its maximal level (100%) on April 12th. Interestingly, T. absoluta reached its significant infestation rate (96.7%) in eggplant in late April. The harmful effects of the pest recorded in the greenhouses was also described in this report. Consequently, this study reveals that T. absoluta population development should be monitored in greenhouses in Azerbaijan and control measures should be taken against the pest with appropriate management programs.

Abstract

Domates güvesi [Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)] domates üretiminde önemli bir zararlı olup yüksek kalite ve kantite kayıplarına sebep olmaktadır. Bu çalışma, 2019 yılında Azerbaycan'ın Abşeron ekonomik bölgesinde domates ve patlıcan seralarında ilk kez Domates güvesi [Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)]’nin populasyon gelişimi ve bulaşıklık oranını belirlemek amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Bu çalışma aynı zamanda Azerbaycan'da T. absoluta'nın popülasyon gelişimi ve bulaşıklık oranı ile ilgili patlıcanda yapılan ilk çalışmadır. Domates güvesinin ergin popülasyon dinamikleri, eşeysel çekici feromon tuzakları kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre zararlı domates serasında, 12 Mart, 26 Mart ve 9 Nisan'da sırasıyla 197, 91 ve 76 ergin/tuzak ile pik noktalarını oluşturmuştur. Patlıcan serasındaki zararlı popülasyonu domatesten daha düşük olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada elde edilen verilere göre T. absoluta’nın Azerbaycan'ın Abşeron bölgesinde Mart ve Nisan aylarında domates ve patlıcan seralarında 2-3 döl tamamlayabileceği anlaşılmıştır. Zararlının domates serasında bulaşıklık oranı Mart ayı başında % 30, Mart ayı ortasında ise % 66.7 iken bu oranın 12 Nisan'da % 100'e ulaştığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, domatese göre zararlının patlıcanda geç tarihlerde de olsa önemli zararlar meydana getirdiği ve bulaşıklık oranının yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Patlıcan serasında en yüksek bulaşıklık oranı (% 96,7) Nisan ayının son haftasında belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada, ayrıca T. absoluta’nın beslenme özellikleri ve bitkilerdeki zarar verme semptomları ayrıntılı olarak açıklamıştır. Azerbaycan'daki seralarda önemli zararlar meydana getirdiği belirlenen T. absoluta’nın popülasyon gelişiminin takip edilmesi, uygun zamanda ve uygun metotlarla mücadele edilmesi gerektiği çalışmadan anlaşılmıştır.
