dc.description | Insect pests in the melon crop represent a very important problem from the nursery stage to harvest, causing a reduction in crop yield potential. Within the control of insect pests, biological control represents a fundamental basis for reducing insect populations to lower levels, without causing any damage to the ecosystem, considering natural enemies, thus being an effective alternative for the control of insect pests in the melon crop. Taking into account that there are also preventive control measures and cultural techniques that can be implemented for the control of insect pests in the melon crop. The information obtained was carried out through the technique of analysis, synthesis and summary, with the purpose of informing the reader about the main insect pests that attack the melon crop (Cucumis melo L.). From the above detailed, it was determined that the main insect pests that affect the melon crop are: Whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci and Bemisia argentifolii), Melon aphids (Aphis gossypii and Myzus persicae), Soldier worm complex (Spodoptera exigua Hüebner, Spodoptera albula Walker and Spodoptera frugiperda Smith), Melon maggot and fruit borer (Diaphania hyalinata Linnaeus and Diaphania nitidalis Stoll) and Leafminers (Liriomyza spp.). The most important and effective methods of control of insect pests in the melon crop are biological control through the application of predatory and parasitoid insects and entomopathogenic fungi, as well as preventive control by applying cultural techniques within the crop to reduce insect pest populations. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | Los insectos plagas en el cultivo de melón representan un problema muy importante desde la etapa de vivero hasta la cosecha, causando una reducción del rendimiento potencial del cultivo. Dentro del control de los insectos plagas, el control biológico representa una base fundamental para reducir las poblaciones de insectos a niveles inferiores, sin causar ningún daño en el ecosistema, considerando los enemigos naturales, siendo así una alternativa eficaz para el control de insectos plagas en el cultivo melón. Teniendo en cuenta que también existen medidas de control preventivo y técnicas culturales que pueden ser implementadas para el control de los insectos plagas en el cultivo de melón. La información obtenida fue efectuada mediante la técnica de análisis, síntesis y resumen, con la finalidad de que el lector conozca sobre los principales insectos plagas que atacan el cultivo de melón (Cucumis melo L.). Por lo anteriormente detallado se determinó que los principales insectos plagas que afectan el cultivo de melón son: Moscas blancas (Bemisia tabaci y Bemisia argentifolii), Pulgones del melón (Aphis gossypii y Myzus persicae), Complejo de gusanos soldados (Spodoptera exigua Hüebner, Spodoptera albula Walker y Spodoptera frugiperda Smith), Gusano del melón y gusano perforador del fruto (Diaphania hyalinata Linnaeus y Diaphania nitidalis Stoll) y Minadores de las hojas (Liriomyza spp.). Los métodos de control sobre los insectos plagas en el cultivo de melón, mas importantes y eficaces son el control biológico mediante la aplicación de insectos depredadores y parasitoides y hongos entomopatógenos, al igual que el método de control preventivo aplicando técnicas culturales dentro del cultivo, para disminuir las poblaciones de los insectos plagas. | es_ES |
