TL;DR: The identity and biological attributes of known natural enemies are reviews, the studies conducted on them during the last decade are summarized, current efforts in biological control of B. tabaci in greenhouse and field crops are reviewed, and research gaps and directions deserving further development are highlighted.

TL;DR: Among the recovered indigenous natural enemies, only few parasitoid species, namely, some eulophid and braconid wasps, and especially mirid predators, have promising potential to be included in effective and environmentally friendly management strategies for the pest in the newly invaded areas.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of available information on indigenous natural enemies is updated, and the current pest management approaches used against T. absoluta are addressed, and future scenarios for biological control of this pest are discussed.

TL;DR: Understanding when and why plant-feeding predators increase their feeding on plants or on certain plant parts is of crucial importance for integrating them in biological control programs.

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to evaluate the lethal and sublethal side effects of three of the insecticides most widely used to control T. absoluta on these predators: azadirachtin, spinosad and indoxacarb.
