Abstract Recently, Tuta absoluta became one of the major pests that attack commercial tomato globally. Field test was done to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of nanosilica (NS) and jasmonic acid (JA), and compared them with indoxacrb (recommended insecticide) on reduction of damage rate caused by T. absoluta larvae under field conditions. Nanosilica (600 ppm) and indoxacrb (0.25 cm3/L) had the highest efficiency to reduce the rate of mines in the leaves. Jasmonic acid at rate 1… CONTINUE READING
