| The control effect of chemical pesticides on tea diseases and pests is rapid, but its long-term use brings
3R issues directly affecting the sustainable development of tea. With the attention of tea quality and safety issues day,
biological control as an important part of integrated pest management has turned into a broad prospect in the tea diseases
and pests control system. This paper elaboratethed the definition and evolution of biological control, outlined the major
types of biological control and their research on the application of tea, such as natural enemies of pests, botanical
pesticides, microbial agents, pheromones and insect growth regulator, etc, summarized deficiencies of tea biological control,
then proposed the following ideas and suggestions for biological control of tea diseases and pests院make full use of
biocontrol microbes to antagonize tea pathogens, construct vectors against tea pest plant system, give full play to natural
enemies of pests regulatory role for tea, strengthen research and bio-pesticides tea product development and application, to
provide the reference for further research and application of biological control of tea diseases and pests. |
