Prospecting of coccinelides associated with maize cultivation (Zea mays L.)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Maize is considered the third most important grain crop in the world due to its economic, food and industrial interest. Throughout its phenology this crop is attacked by pests and diseases, which could have adverse effects on production. In order to control these problems, conventional management is generally used, causing ecological imbalances. For this reason, it is necessary to consider sustainable alternatives based on the knowledge of beneficial entomofauna. This research aimed to conduct a prospective analysis of the coccinelides associated with maize cultivation in the canton of Santa Ana, Ecuador. For this purpose, the coccinelides present under two different conditions were evaluated; with and without insecticide application. Five sampling techniques were used according to the research protocol and taxonomic classification was carried out. The data were interpreted using descriptive statistics, in addition, alpha and beta diversity was assessed. In the study, 297 individuals were found, gathered to: 1 order,1 family, 13 genera and 11 species. The greatest abundance was found in undisturbed conditions, determining that the most efficient trapping technique for their capture was the use of chromatic traps. This type of research is important to derive biological control programs in economically important crops.
