dc.description.abstractBemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) is one of the most serious pests of greenhouse crops. It is mainly controlled by chemical means, requiring some 10-12 sprays during the average growing season in Turkey. There is growing interest in finding alternatives to pesticides for control of B. tabaci in greenhouse crops because this heavy pesticide usage disrupts biocontrol and leads to rapid build-up of insecticide resistance in the pest. In our study, the control of B. tabaci on greenhouse eggplants was evaluated following releases of the lady beetle Serangium parcesetosum Sicard (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). In cage experiments, four adults per plant were introduced and, within 3-4 weeks, resulted in 97 and 98% reductions in whitefly populations in 2004 and 2005, respectively. In a large plot experiment, two adults per plant were released only one time. Beetle larvae were observed through 2-9 weeks after release. The density of whitefly in large plot receiving beetle adults showed fluctuations to a level lower than in control plot receiving no beetle in 2004 and 2006. Further study is needed to develop new managing strategies in biological control of B. tabaci with S. parcesetosum in protected culture.en_US
