The present study aimed to explore oviposition preference and larval survival of Lobesia botrana Den. & Schiff. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), which is a key pest of vineyards. The study was carried out using natural population of the pest on cultivars of Yalova incisi, Flame Seedless, Sultana and Crimson Seedless in 2009 and 2010.
