Project Structure >

The Whitefly IPM Task Force advised that three whitefly problems should be prioritized for research and development efforts in the Tropics:

1) Whiteflies as pests in tropical highlands;
2) Whiteflies as virus vectors in mixed cropping systems; and
3) Whiteflies as vectors and pests in cassava

Within the CGIAR framework for an eco-regional problem approach, the Tropical Whitefly IPM Project was structured into 6 subprojects:

Whiteflies as pests in the tropical highlands

Subproject 1 >
Whiteflies as pests in the tropical highlands of Latin America

Coordinator > Dr. César Cardona

This subproject has been supported by the:
