Phytosanitary evaluation of the living fence of the Los Pantanos de Villa Wildlife Refuge, Lima, Peru
Live fencing based on cultivated fruit, fodder or timber trees and shrubs can protect biological diversity.

In the present study, during the summer and autumn of 2022, a phytosanitary evaluation of the live fence of the Pantanos de Villa Wildlife Refuge (RVSPV), Lima, Peru was carried out in order to estimate the spatial and temporal variations of phytophagous insects and fence diseases. alive in three sectors: Laguna Mayor (LM), Laguna Génesis (LG) and Marvilla (M). Specific protocols were used to assess the phytosanitary incidence and severity. 22 taxa of phytophagous insects were recorded in the three sectors of the live fence of the RVSPV. Most of the phytophagous insects and diseases were recorded in Schinus terebinthifolius and in Myoporum acuminatum, and between February - May in the summer and autumn seasons of 2022. The degree of severity of affectation of the crown of trees and shrubs did not show differences between both stations. There were significant differences in the incidence of whitefly (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) and powdery mildew (Oidium sp.) (Ascomycota: Erysiphaceae) between seasons. In LM, whitefly and powdery mildew had a higher incidence in the fall. The index Simpson's index for phytophagous insects was higher in LG, the Shannon-Wiener diversity index was higher in M, and the Margalef index was higher in LM. Phytophagous insects and diseases in the live fence presented low degrees of severity and incidence in the RVSPV. |
