Halyomorpha halys, also known as Brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), is an invasive species native of the eastern Asia that was accidentally introduced into Europe during the last decade. The control of this species is difficult because of its polyphagy and mobility, but also because of the scarcity of natural enemies and effective pesticides; nowadays several techniques are being studied to achieve an effective pest management of H. halys. In this thesis experiments were performed to evaluate if the use of biostimulants and corroborants can have an effect on H.halys on apple trees. The effect of these products were studied on BMSB behavior, and on agronomical characteristics in the host.
La Halyomorpha halys (Cimice asiatica o Brown marmorated stink bug), è un insetto alloctono originario dell’Asia orientale, introdotto accidentalmente in più paesi europei nel corso dello scorso decennio. La difesa a questo fitofago è particolarmente ardua per via della sua elevata polifagia, mobilità e carenza di antagonisti naturali. La lotta chimica risulta non pienamente efficace, sono allo studio diverse tecniche di difesa integrata contro questo fitofago. Nella presente tesi si è deciso di svolgere delle prove per valutare gli effetti di prodotti biostimolanti e corroboranti nei confronti di H.halys su melo. Le prove hanno valutato l'effetto dei prodotti sul comportamento dell’insetto e sulle caratteristiche agronomiche della specie ospite.

Abstract
Halyomorpha halys, also known as Brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), is an invasive species native of the eastern Asia that was accidentally introduced into Europe during the last decade. The control of this species is difficult because of its polyphagy and mobility, but also because of the scarcity of natural enemies and effective pesticides; nowadays several techniques are being studied to achieve an effective pest management of H. halys. In this thesis experiments were performed to evaluate if the use of biostimulants and corroborants can have an effect on H.halys on apple trees. The effect of these products were studied on BMSB behavior, and on agronomical characteristics in the host.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
