| Abstract | ||
| Application of package elements as integrated pest management of the crop in greenhouses reduced mines on the leaf and fruit to 2.74 mines/leaf and 0 mines/fruit respectively, compared with 27.02 mines/leaf and 3.8 mines/fruit in the control. The population diversity of larvae on leaves and fruits decreased in treated greenhouses to 0.72 larvae / leaf and 0 larvae / fruit, respectively, compared with 20.95 larvae / leaf and 2.62 larvae / fruit in the control. The adults captured on pheromone traps in IPM greenhouses reduced to 35.33 adults/trap/week, compared with 173.33 adults/trap /week in the control. The results also showed a dramatic reduction in the percentage of infestation at treated greenhouses which reached to 5.55%, compared with 100% in the control. As a result, yield of treated greenhouses increased to 2230 kg/greenhouse(area of 266 m²) , compared with 1284 kg/greenhouse in the control. | ||
