• Natural enemies of the South American moth, Tuta absoluta, in Europe, North Africa and Middle East, and their potential use in pest control strategies (2013, background): “This moth is a Neotropical species and is considered a key pest of the tomato in South America (Guedes and Picanço 2012; Luna et al. 2012), where it remained confined until its first record in Western Palaearctic, in Spain in 2006 (Desneux et al. 2010; Tropea Garzia et al. 2012).”
• Occurrence, biology, natural enemies and management of Tuta absoluta in Africa (2018, background): “…because of its high demographical potential, which is mainly due to a short generation time, a relatively wide host range, a good thermal adaptability and its aptitude to develop insecticide resistance (Desneux et al. 2010, Guedes & Picanço 2012, Tropea Garzia et al. 2012, Biondi et al. 2018).”
