Using targeted sequencing and TaqMan approaches to detect acaricide (bifenthrin, bifenazate, and etoxazole) resistance associated SNPs in Tetranychus urticae collected from peppermint fields and hop yards

PLoS ONE, 2023
Tetranychus urticae (Koch) is an economically important pest of many agricultural commodities world-wide. Multiple acaricides, including bifenazate, bifenthrin, and extoxazole, are currently registered to control T. urticae.

Acaricides Resistance in Ticks: Selection, Diagnosis, Mechanisms, and Mitigation

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Ticks are blood-feeding ecto-parasites that have a cosmopolitan distribution in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Ticks cause economic losses in the form of reduced blood, meat and dairy products, as well as pathogen transmission.

Acaricide resistance in livestock ticks infesting cattle in Africa: Current status and potential mitigation strategies

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases, 2022
In many African countries, tick control has recently been the responsibility of resource-poor farmers rather than central government veterinary departments. This has led to an increase in acaricide resistance, threatening the welfare of livestock farmers

Acaricide Evaluation, 1997 [PDF]

Arthropod Management Tests, 1998
Abstract This experiment was conducted in a ⅓-acre block of 12-yr-old trees on M.26 rootstock. Trees measured 11.5 ft in height and 10.5 ft in width and were planted at a spacing of 10 X 15 ft. The experiment involved 4 single-tree replications in a RCB design, with each replicate surrounded by at least one unsprayed tree on each side ...

Monitoring the Acaricide Resistance Status and Baseline Susceptibility of Field‐Collected Populations of Tetranychus urticae Koch in Korea [PDF]

Arch Insect Biochem Physiol
A nationwide survey of Tetranychus urticae from Korean strawberry greenhouses revealed strong regional variation in acaricide susceptibility. Localized resistance to abamectin, chlorfenapyr, and acequinocyl highlights the need for region‐specific, MoA‐based resistance management strategies. ABSTRACT The two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch,
