Exploring the effectiveness of methyl salicylate and attractive traps in dispersing and recapturing glasshouse whiteflies: advances in push–pull strategy
These findings highlight the potential of combining MeSa as whitefly dispersal factor (push) with green LED-enhanced traps as attractive factor (pull) in push-pull strategies to improve targeted whitefly control in glasshouse crops, while reducing reliance on pesticides. © 2025 The Author(s).
