“…Agricultural crops and their corresponding pests are directly and indirectly affected by climate change. Direct impacts are on pests’ reproduction, development, survival and dispersal, whereas indirectly the climate change affects the relationships between pests, their environment and other insect species such as natural enemies, competitors, vectors and mutualists [ 4 ]. Insects are poikilothermic organisms; the temperature of their body depends on the temperature of the environment.…”

“…One of the major biotic factors are pests, which are also impacted by climate change and weather disruptions. Temperature rise directly affects pest’s reproduction, survival, spread and population dynamics as well as the relationships between pests, the environment, and natural enemies [ 4 ]. As such, it is very important to monitor pest’s appearance and abundance as the conditions of their occurrence can change at a high pace.…”

Climate change and global warming are of great concern to agriculture worldwide and are among the most discussed issues in today’s society. Climate parameters such as increased temperatures, rising atmospheric CO2 levels, and changing precipitation patterns have significant impacts on agricultural production and on agricultural insect pests. Changes in climate can affect insect pests in several ways. They can result in an expansion of their geographic distribution, increased survival during overwintering, increased number of generations, altered synchrony between plants and pests, altered interspecific interaction, increased risk of invasion by migratory pests, increased incidence of insect-transmitted plant diseases, and reduced effectiveness of biological control, especially natural enemies. As a result, there is a serious risk of crop economic losses, as well as a challenge to human food security. As a major driver of pest population dynamics, climate change will require adaptive management strategies to deal with the changing status of pests. Several priorities can be identified for future research on the effects of climatic changes on agricultural insect pests. These include modified integrated pest management tactics, monitoring climate and pest populations, and the use of modelling prediction tools.

“…Our observations showed few differences in how L. sativae density responds to temperature changes even under the same environmental conditions. This may be due to the fact that host insect populations and their natural enemies may respond differently to changes in temperature (Prakash et al, 2014), besides that, larval development of leaf-miners also may vary by host plant (Parrella, 1987).…”

“…In general, higher temperatures favor a faster metabolism and relative humidity directly affects development, which can be retarded when the humidity is low and can cause drowning eggs and facilitate pathogen contamination when it is too high (Gullan & Cranston, 2014). Climate changes have notable impacts on agriculture, by influencing, directly or indirectly, crop plants and their associated pests (Prakash et al, 2014). In general, climatic factors such as temperature, precipitation, humidity, and wind speed and direction directly influence pest distribution and growth by affecting their rate of development, reproduction, distribution, migration, and adaptation.…”

Agromyzidae (Insecta: Diptera) is a cosmopolitan family of acalyptrate flies, with almost 3,000 species worldwide distributed. Most species are leaf miners on a large number of plants. Among them, Liriomyza Mik, 1894 is a large genus of leaf-miner species that can cause significant damage to economically important crops and is considered agricultural pests, such as Liriomyza sativae Blanchard, 1938 and Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard, 1926), which are herein investigated. The present study deals with the impact of climatic factors (temperature, humidity, and precipitation), seasonality, and parasitoid abundance on leaf-miner infestation during one year in five cultivated crops in Northeastern Brazil. Climatic factors for instance had different effects on L. sativae populations in melon and watermelon crops. Larval abundances were greater during the dry season for both species, L. sativae and L. huidobrensis, and abundance of adult parasitoids followed the increase of mining larvae.

“…Based on the great interaction between plant and insects, the plant has improved the defense mechanism against herbivores and very well sources for toxic materials for insects (Pickett et al, 2006). Essential plant oils produced from aromatic plants are introduced as a natural biopesticides among many different levels of natural materials (Isman and Grieneisen, 2014;Prakash et al, 2014). Plant natural product like plant oils and plant derivatives could be an alternative agent for insect control, where they constitute rich sources of bioactive chemicals as well as, they are often biodegradable to non-toxic products.…”

The cotton leafworm Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) is consider a polyphagous pest infesting cotton and some important vegetables and field crops in Egypt. The latent effects (LC 25) of three insect growth regulators (IGRS); Runner (24% SC), Virtu (5% SC) and Roxy (10% EC) and three essential plant oils; coriander, basil and mustard oils were evaluated against fourth larval instar until adult emergence and oviposition under laboratory conditions. The influence of LC 25 of tested materials on some biological aspects, nutrition indices for cotton leafworm were evaluated. Novaluron (roxy) showed a great ovicidal activity where recorded the lowest number of laid eggs (611 eggs) compared to control and coriander oil (1103.3 and 871 eggs, respectively). Also, novaluron was the most female oviposition deterrence (23%) and had the highest sterility (68.9%). On the other hand, there was a significant differences between novaluron and tested oils in sterility. Coriander oil recorded the highest feeding deterrence index (FDI) against fourth larval instar which statistically different with all tested treatment, while, tested IGRs had the lowest effect as a feeding deterrent for larvae varied between 7-9%. Relative growth Rate (RGR) had insignificantly varied between tested treatments. Larval duration was significantly elongated when larvae fed on treated castor bean leaves with coriander oil reach to 16.2 days compared to control (13.8 days). While IGRs treatments recorded that shorter larval duration rather than coriander oil, but significantly similar to control. Chromafenozide (virtu) pesticide had the highest larval mortality compared to control and essential plant oils treatments.
