| dc.description | This bibliographic collection describes several alternative methods for the control (Cylas formicarius Fab.) in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) crops, in Ecuador. The alternatives include chemical, cultural and biological controls that affect the control of this pest, which causes economic losses to farmers. Conclusions It was determined that Cylas formicarius Fab caused two primary attacks: a primary attack on the plant or stem or leaves of the plant and a secondary attack on the fruit depending on the number of perforations with symptoms such as dry or dead leaves and rotten fruit. Biological control as an alternative will not affect the biodiversity of crops and thus maintain the balance of the agroecosystem. Biological balance is a fundamental element for natural enemies to fully fulfill their pest control function, which contributes to the normal development of crops. Sweet potatoes are also a valuable source of vitamins B, C and E and contain moderate amounts of iron and zinc. China is the largest producer and consumer of sweet potatoes for food and processing (food, starch and other products). The sweet potato weevil is a species of insect in the Coleoptera family, native to tropical and temperate regions. A borer that specializes in attacking Convolvulaceae is the main pest affecting sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas). The damage is caused by larvae that bore into the tubers during storage in the field and after harvest. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | Esta colección bibliográfica describe varios métodos alternativos para el control (Cylas formicarius Fab.) en cultivos de batata (Ipomoea batatas), en el Ecuador. Las alternativas incluyen controles químicos, culturales y biológicos que afectan el control de esta plaga, que causa pérdidas económicas a los agricultores. Conclusiones Se determinó que Cylas formicarius Fab causaba dos ataques primarios: un ataque primario a la planta o tallo u hojas de la planta y un ataque secundario a la fruta dependiendo del número de perforaciones con síntomas tales como hojas secas o muertas y fruta podrida. El control biológico como alternativa no afectará la biodiversidad de los cultivos y así mantener el equilibrio del agroecosistema. El equilibrio biológico es un elemento fundamental para que los enemigos naturales cumplan a cabalidad su función de control de plagas, lo que contribuye al normal desarrollo de los cultivos. Las batatas también son una valiosa fuente de vitaminas B, C y E y contienen cantidades moderadas de hierro y zinc, China es el mayor productor y consumidor de batatas para alimentos y procesamiento (alimentos, almidón y otros productos). El gorgojo de la batata es una especie de insecto de la familia Coleoptera, nativo de regiones tropicales y templadas. Un barrenador que se especializa en atacar Convolvulaceae es la principal plaga que afecta a la batata (Ipomoea batatas). El daño es causado por larvas que perforan los tubérculos durante el almacenamiento en el campo y después de la cosecha. | es_ES |
