Importancia de los trips (Frankliniella parvola) en el cultivo de banano de exportación

Banana production can be affected by various factors, including insect attack. This can cause large losses in production, reducing the yield and quality of the fruit. During the year 2020 in Ecuador it was shown that the main entomological problem in organic banana plantations was the red spot thrips, causing rejection between 30 and 60% of the production, affecting compliance with the market demand in terms of the quality of the product. product causing rejection in the market. On the other hand, in the banana-growing region of southern Gujarat (India), more than 50% of the fruits were found to be affected by red spot thrips infestation, lowering the commercial quality of the fruits under unsafe conditions. protected. Similarly, in the nearest banana growing area of Jalgaon, India, the abundance of red spot thrips infestation affected between 14-29% of production during 2019, 16-35% in 2020 and 16-34% in 2021, in the fruiting stage. The presence of red stain or red rust affects compliance with market demands regarding product quality; in the literature it is attributed to the thrips Chaetanaphothrips signipennis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae). According to DOLE (2019), this damage is produced on the surface of the fingers of the first hands of the bunch and begins in the basal part near the neck in the middle of the fingers and appears as an oval and variable-shaped abrasion with colored margins. brown or reddish. The presence of red rust in banana plantations has been suggested.
