The Issue Genetically engineered crops are often taken automatically for the main reason of biodiversity loss. There are numerous false claims of this kind, such as Vandana Shiva gives in her frequent world tours: Shiva, V., Emani, A., & Jafri, A.H. (1999) Globalization and threat to seed security - Case of transgenic cotton trials in India. Economic and Political Weekly, 34, 10-11, pp 601-613 http://www.ask-force.ch/web/Cotton/Shiva-Globalisation-Threat-Seed-Security-1999.pdf “In such a situation, the introduction of genetically engineered (GE) seeds becomes worrisome. In absence of any such regulation, the costlier GE seeds will offer no guarantee for whether they perform well or not. This will lead to complete erosion of the agricultural biodiversity and adversely affect the socio-economic status of the farmers. This will be further aggravated since GE seeds will be patented, and corporations will treat information about them as proprietary.” And another citation from Greenpeace Great Britain, downloaded from their website November 12, 2009 1 “The introduction of genetically modified (GM) food and crops has been a disaster.

In the first phases, the fundamental Biological control, in the ecological sense, as a phase aspects studied are taxonomy, biology, physiology, of natural control, may be defined as the regulation of genetics, ecology, demography, behavior, and nutrition the population density of a pest organism by natural of pests and their enemies (DeBach 1975). enemies (parasites, parasitoids, predators, or pathogens) at a level that would be equal or greater If necessary, a pest and its enemies are identified by than would have been reached by means of another a specialist, as the organism’s name and classification alternative. Applied biological control supposes are key to all existing knowledge on it, and thus professional activity or human manipulation that understanding and controlling it if it is pest, or using it if promotes the effectiveness of natural enemies it is a natural enemy (Cave 1995b). (DeBach 1977). Natural Enemies In a broad sense, biological control may also be defined as mortality or suppression of pest organisms In biological control, various natural enemies participate, by any biotic factor. In this wider sense, it is the direct for example, parasites, parasitoids, predators, and action of parasites, parasitoids, predators, and microorganisms. These organisms must be able to pathogens (i.e., natural enemies) and of competition respond quickly to the pest’s population dynamics, so with other species for natural resources (i.e., that proportionately more natural enemies are present antagonists) that regulate an organism’s population as the pest population increases.

  • Integrated Pest and Disease Management in Major
    Activity 1. Arthropod taxonomic activities on cassava and other crops. Introduction The IPDM project provides a service of identifying arthropod pests collected from different crops, but especially those crops related to CIAT’s mandate and activities. These collections also include natural enemies related to crop pests, and much of this information is found in the subsequent activities in this report. A database is maintained of all collections and this is available to collaborating institutions and national research and extension programs. One of the activities of the CIAT convened “Global Whitefly IPM Project” is to provide taxonomic support for whiteflies and their natural enemies collected from the different agroecosystems of Latin America (Neotropics). Project collaborators located in the numerous countries involved in the project (about 16 in Latin America) continue to send shipments of specimens collected for processing, monitoring and identification. These identifications are of vital importance for the development and implementation of IPM projects in these countries. Collected specimens are conserved on microscope slides and documented in the whitefly database that is accessible through “Access.” This service is also extended to parasitoids as well as other species collected from associated crops (i.e. crops associated with cassava) and made available to all collaborating institutions and countries. During the past year training in collecting, monitoring, and identification of whiteflies has been extended to scientists, students and collaborators from numerous institutions. In addition to conventional morphological taxonomy techniques, during this year we have implemented in the cassava entomology laboratory, the application of molecular techniques based on PCR, especially for the identification of whiteflies and their parasitoids.

Three improved cassava varieties and a local variety were intercropped with an im- proved cowpea variety, and cowpea only constituted the treatments. Abundance of Bemisia ta- baci was comparable between sole cassava and cassava-cowpea intercrop, but was significantly less on the sole cowpea. The incidence and severity of cassava mosaic disease was higher on the local variety than on the improved varieties. Root yield of cassava did not differ between sole and intercropped cassava with cowpea. However, Kwadaso had higher root yield than Ejura. Dry grain yield of cowpea was similar at Kwadaso and Ejura for both sole and intercrop scenarios.

  • J Ácaros, Plagas En El Cultivo De La Yuca (Manihot Esculenta ,Crantz )
    Revista de la Facultad de Agronomia. Volumen 4, Número 1, Septiembre-Diciembre 1977. 63 - 95 Universidad del Zulia, Maracaíbo, Venezuela. Estudio preliminar de olgunos insectos ~j ácaros, plagas en el cultivo de la yuca (Manihot esculenta ,Crantz ) en el Estado ZuUa, Venezuela 1 MAGALLV nUlRos L. 2 COMPENDIO Se presenta un estudio preliminar de varios insectos y ácaros encontrados en el cultivo de la yuca, Manihot esculenta Crantz. A tal fin se realizaron 32 visitas a fincas o granjas y asentamientos campesinos de los Distritos Maracaibo, Mara, Páez, Perijá, Baralt y Colón del Estado Zulia, durante los meses comprendidos entre Abril de 1972 a Septiembre de 1973. Fueron identificados un total de 18 artrópodos fitófagos y 11 entre parásitos y depredadores. De acuerdo a la literatura consultada se da otra lista de insectos y ácaros fitófagos en Venezuela y otros países que han realizado estudios al respecto. Se incluyen algunas notas sobre la descripción, hábitos, daños e impor­ tancia económica de cada uno de los especímenes fitófagos, así como la metodología seguida en el campo y laboratorio durante la conducción de este trabajo. De las observaciones hechas se pueden inducir que existen insectos y ácaros de verdadera importancia económica tales como Chilom;ma darke; (Amsel), la cual está ampliamente distribuída en el Estado; Mononychellus caribbeanae (McGregor) y varias especies del Género Tetranychus, arácnidos éstos que causan daños importantes sobre todo en época de sequía. Comúnmente se reportan daños de Erinnyis ello (Linné) que pueden en algunos casos devorar una plantación cuando se manifiestan en gran número. Existen otras plagas que son potencialmente dañinas al cultivo de la yuca y las cuales se reportan en el presente estudio.
