As this method is based on the application of various techniques together, it is a highly effective solution for this type of problem. This work was developed as a non-experimental bibliographic research, through the use of synthesis, analysis and summary of the information collected. The main species of aphids that affect horticultural crops are the following: Aphis fabae, Aphis gossypii and Myzus persicae. Aphids attack young shoots, causing a reduction in plant vigor; as a result, the infected part turns yellow; In addition, secondary fungi reduce the growth and yield of vegetables. Aphids cause indirect damage, because they are vectors of various viruses and cause economic losses; Honeydew, produced by aphids, helps the fungus thrive. Cultural practices for aphid control are based on: living barriers, high planting densities and trap crops, which contribute to the reduction of pest insect populations. The most used botanical extracts against aphids are: Azadirachta indica (A.Juss.); Allium sativum (L.) Ruta graveolans (L.); Tagetes erecta (L.); Cinnamomun verum (L.); Quassia amara (L.). |
