Plant feeding by Nesidiocoris tenuis: Quantifying its behavioral and mechanical components

Milena Chinchilla-Ramirez et al.

Summary: Research on Zoophytophagous predators, particularly the mirid Nesidiocoris tenuis, has shown that behavioral observations and mechanical studies are crucial in understanding their feeding activities and damage potential on tomato plants. The study revealed that fifth-instar nymphs of N. tenuis exhibit a higher frequency of probing and spend more time feeding on tomato plants, particularly on cell-rupturing events, compared to adults. These findings suggest that targeting the feeding behavior of fifth-instar nymphs may lead to effective control strategies for minimizing damage caused by N. tenuis on tomato crops.

Use of zoophytophagous mirid bugs in horticultural crops: Current challenges and future perspectives

Meritxell Perez-Hedo et al.

Summary: The use of predatory mirid bugs in horticultural crops has been increasing, as they are zoophytophagous predators with the ability to feed on a wide range of prey. While they can activate plant defenses, challenges such as difficulty in their establishment and plant damage caused by some species exist. Various strategies, including utilizing plant defenses, genetic selection, companion plants, and alternative foods, are being explored to optimize their efficacy as biocontrol agents.
