Summary

Herbivore pests such as the invasive specialist Tuta absoluta or the native generalist Chrysodeixis chalcites known as the tomato looper can cause severe damage in tomato greenhouses. Systematic defences of the plants could slow down the build-up of the pest populations, thus prolong the time before economical damage. Especially for organic growers, this form of functional biodiversity could serve as first line of the defence.
