Abstract

Effect of Planting Space, Some Weather Factors and Plant Age on the Population Density of Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) Infesting Pea Plants.

Highlights

  • Green pea plants are liable to infestation by vegetable leaf miner Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) (Diptera: Agromyzidae),is a polyphagous species spread around the world, becoming vegetable crop pests

  • Statistical analysis of correlation coefficient and partial regression values showed that the effect of weather factors and plant age on the population density of L. trifolii was differed to positive or negative correlation according to planting spaces and plant stages during two studied seasons

  • Field experiments were carried out to study the effect of planting space, some weather factors and plant age on the population density of Leaf miner, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) infesting pea plants (Pisum sativum)

Summary

Introduction

Green pea plants are liable to infestation by vegetable leaf miner Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) ,is a polyphagous species spread around the world, becoming vegetable crop pests. Statistical analysis of correlation coefficient and partial regression values showed that the effect of weather factors and plant age on the population density of L. trifolii was differed to positive or negative correlation according to planting spaces and plant stages (vegetative, flowering and fruiting stages) during two studied seasons.
