Abstract

This article analyzes the morphology, adaptation to climate and pest population reduction experiments of important aphids (Aphidius ervi, Lysiphlebus fabarum, Aphelinus mali). It is significant in that it allows preserving beneficial entomofauna and reducing insecticide consumption without harming the ecosystem. This method is considered an environmentally safe and effective alternative to traditional insecticides. It is emphasized that mass implementation is also promising in the conditions of Uzbekistan.
