| dc.description | The citrus activity worldwide is one of the most representative, given its contribution to the market with exquisite and extremely attractive fruits due to their variety, flavor, and nutritional properties, also being used for medicinal purposes in case of fevers, colds, stomach diseases and deficiency. of vitamin C; Due to its importance, producers find it necessary to take care of their crops not only by fertilizing carefully, but also by implementing a pest control system that reduces the environmental impact. The citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri Risso is one of the pests that causes the most damage to the Citrus genus, finding accommodation in the plant from the stem to the fruit itself; When considering the biological control of pests as a means for their eradication, the introduction of natural enemies such as the parasitoid Anagyrus pseudococci Giraul is suggested, which acts by laying eggs inside the pest insect, immobilizing it a few weeks after settling on its host and subsequently causing its death. The use of biological control on the citrus scale insect P. citri Risso allows raising awareness among farmers about the importance of reducing the application of pesticides that leave chemical residues in the fruit and alter the ecosystem, which usually happens with synthetic insecticides; A. pseudococci Giraul has demonstrated its effectiveness in the biological control of pests in citrus crops, being marketed in European countries such as Spain where the product is distributed in jars containing pupae and adult insects with the respective indications for their release. in the orchards. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La actividad citrícola a nivel mundial es de las más representativas, dado su aporte al mercado con frutos exquisitos y sumamente atractivos debido a su variedad, sabor, y propiedades nutritivas siendo empelados también con fines medicinales en caso de fiebres, resfríos, enfermedades estomacales y deficiencia de vitamina C; por su importancia, los productores se ven en la necesidad de cuidar sus cultivos no solo abonando cuidadosamente, sino implementando un sistema de control de plagas que disminuya el impacto ambiental. La cochinilla de los cítricos Planococcus citri Risso es una de las plagas que más daño ocasiona al género Citrus, encontrando alojamiento en la planta desde el tallo hasta el mismo fruto; al considerar el control biológico de plagas como medio para su erradicación se sugiere la introducción de enemigos naturales como el parasitoide Anagyrus pseudococci Giraul el cual actúa ovopositando dentro del insecto plaga inmovilizándolo a pocas semanas de alojarse en su huésped y posteriormente provocando su muerte. El uso de control biológico sobre la cochinilla de los cítricos P. citri Risso permite crear conciencia en los agricultores sobre la importancia de reducir la aplicación de plaguicidas que dejen residuos químicos en el fruto y alteren el ecosistema lo que suele ocurrir con los insecticidas sintéticos; A. pseudococci Giraul ha demostrado su eficacia en el control bilógico de plagas en los cultivos cítricos, llegando a ser comercializada en países de Europa como España donde el producto se distribuye dentro de botes que contienen pupas e insectos adultos con las respectivas indicaciones para su liberación en los huertos. | es_ES |
