WHO CAUSES IT?
The aphids Myzus persicae, Aphis gossypii, Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Aulacorthum solani are small insects, generally 1 to 3 mm in length, which can be green, black, yellow or pink, depending on the species and its stage of development. These insects have a complex life cycle that includes sexual and asexual phases. Parthenogenetic (asexual) females can give birth to live young without mating, allowing rapid multiplication under favorable conditions. These offspring can be winged or wingless (wingless), and the winged forms facilitate dispersal to new host plants. In unfavorable times, aphids can produce sexual forms that mate and lay cold-resistant eggs, ensuring the survival of the species during the winter. The ability of these insects to reproduce rapidly and their ability to adapt to diverse environments makes them highly effective and difficult to control pests.

SYMPTOMS
In tomatoes, aphid infestation causes a series of symptoms that affect both the health of the plant and the quality of the fruits. Aphids feed by sucking plant sap, which weakens growth and can transmit viral diseases. Furthermore, the presence of aphids is usually accompanied by the secretion of honeydew, a sticky substance that facilitates the growth of sooty mold fungi, affecting photosynthesis and the aesthetic appearance of the plant.
- Curled and deformed leaves
- Yellow Taches and necrosis on the leaves
- Reduction of plant growth
- Presence of honeydew on leaves and stems
- Development of sooty mold fungi on molasses
- Transmission of phytopathogenic viruses
- Decrease in fruit quality and yield
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
20-28°C
65-85%
TRANSMISSION PATHS
Direct contact between plants, contaminated tools, workers, wind, winged vector insects

Recommendations
- Use aphid-resistant tomato varieties.
- Implement crop rotations to avoid the accumulation of aphids in the soil.
- Introduce and encourage the presence of natural enemies such as ladybugs, lacewings and parasitoid wasps.
- Apply physical barriers such as mesh and covers to prevent the arrival of aphids.
- Regularly monitor crops to detect infestations early and take immediate measures.
- Maintain adequate plant nutrition to strengthen their natural resistance.
- Use horticultural oils and insecticidal soaps as non-chemical control methods.
- Prune the affected parts to eliminate sources of infestation.
- Avoid excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers, as they can encourage the reproduction of aphids.
- Apply specific insecticides when the infestation is severe, always following the integrated pest management recommendations.
