Management strategy for serpentine leafminer, Liriomyza huidobrensis
This multi-industry collaboration incorporates organisations with recent, relevant R&D into leafminers as well as field scientists located in affected regions. The multidisciplinary team will develop and deliver specific serpentine leafminer (SLM) information and facilitate a targeted communication program, which is critical if susceptible horticultural industries are to better understand and manage this pest.
This project will build on the work developed in MT16010 by: refining development and validation of tools including surveillance and diagnostic protocols, predictive forecasting for SLM risk assessment and management, as well as identifying and monitoring parasitoids, and delivering an industry communication program including the development of an industry management plan and grower guides and industry focused workshops
