| dc.description | The research details the analysis of damage from the basket worm (Oiketicus kirbyi Lands) in the banana crop (MUSA AAA) in Ecuador. The objectives were to identify the symptoms and damage caused by the basket worm in banana crops and describe the control methods of the basket worm in banana crops. The conclusions determine that the basket worm is a polyphagous insect that feeds on various crops and wild plants, including musaceae (Musa spp.). The larva has the ability to feed on a wide range of plant species, including crops and weeds. When the larva descends to the foliage of the plant, it immediately begins its feeding process. The larvae are often transported long distances by air currents, animals or vehicles. Larvae in early stages exhibit limited autonomous mobility. The basket worm can pose a significant problem, as it is an extremely polyphagous insect and several of its hosts are plants of agricultural, forestry and ornamental importance. During its larval stage, the insect shows a high level of voracity, consuming around 304.5 square centimeters of foliage. To improve monitoring, it is suggested to remove plant baskets during the winter season to eradicate eggs. During the spring season, in the presence of caterpillars, it is recommended to apply a biological insecticide to the plant. Bacillus thuringiensis is the most effective and most used biological control method for lepidopteran pests. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La investigación detalla sobre el análisis de daño del gusano cesto (Oiketicus kirbyi Lands) en el cultivo de banano (MUSA AAA) en el Ecuador. Los objetivos planteados fueron identificar los síntomas y daños que ocasiona el gusano cesto en el cultivo de banano y describir los métodos de control del gusano cesto en el cultivo de banano. Las conclusiones determinan que el gusano canasta es un insecto polífago que se alimenta de diversos cultivos y plantas silvestres, incluidas las musáceas (Musa spp.). La larva tiene la capacidad de alimentarse de una amplia gama de especies de plantas, incluidos cultivos y malezas. Cuando la larva desciende al follaje de la planta, inmediatamente inicia su proceso de alimentación. A menudo, las larvas son transportadas a grandes distancias por corrientes de aire, animales o vehículos. Las larvas en etapas tempranas exhiben una limitada movilidad autónoma. El gusano cesta puede plantear un problema importante, ya que es un insecto extremadamente polífago y varios de sus huéspedes son plantas de importancia agrícola, forestal y ornamental. Durante su etapa larval, el insecto muestra un alto nivel de voracidad, llegando a consumir alrededor de 304,5 centímetros cuadrados de follaje. Para mejorar la supervisión, se sugiere la eliminación de los cestos de las plantas durante la temporada invernal para erradicar los huevos. Durante la temporada de primavera, ante la presencia de orugas, se recomienda aplicar un insecticida biológico a la planta. Bacillus thuringiensis es el método de control biológico más eficaz y el más utilizado en plagas de lepidópteros. | es_ES |
