Attachment
Project seeks to determine levels of resistance to silverleaf white fly in curcubits, based on trials performed in the Carnarvon district of WA using a range of cucumber, zucchini and pumpkin varieties. These results will assist growers on which varieties will prove most suitable and economical given the continuing SLW infestations. This project also enhanced awareness of the importance of monitoring SLW populations and resultant leaf damage and yield reduction.
