Abstract
The use of the pyroligneous acid or liquid, obtained through the condensation of vapors released when hardwood is converted to charcoal, has been recommended and used by tomato producers as a phytosanitary measure. However, only a few studies have evaluated the impact of these products on crop protection management. Thus, this work has aimed to evaluate the action of the pyroligneous acid obtained from Eucalyptus grandis, Melia azedarach and Pinus caribaea on the tomato pinworm Tuta absoluta, a serious tomato crop pest in Brazil. Treatments were evaluated regarding larva survival, larval feeding preference and adult oviposition. Results showed that the pyroligneous acid, from the three arboreal species tested, has no effect on the development, feeding behavior or oviposition of T. absoluta.
